Let $R$ be a ring spectrum and $ E\to X$ an $R$-module bundle of rank $n$. Our main result is to identify the homotopy type of the group-like monoid of homotopy automorphisms of this bundle, $hAut^R(E)$. This will generalize the result…

A separable, proper morphism of varieties with geometrically connected fibers induces a homotopy exact sequence relating the \'etale fundamental groups of source, target and fiber. Extending work of dos Santos, we prove the existence of an…

Let X be a smooth complete complex toric variety such that the boundary is a simple normal crossing divisor, and let E be a holomorphic vector bundle on X. We prove that E admits an equivariant structure if and only if E admits a…

The point of this paper is to prove the conjecture that virtual 2-vector bundles are classified by K(ku), the algebraic K-theory of topological K-theory. Hence, by the work of Ausoni and the fourth author, virtual 2-vector bundles give us a…

We prove existence and unicity of slope stable vector bundles on a general polarized hyperk\"ahler (HK) variety of type $K3^{[n]}$ with certain discrete invariants, provided the rank and the first two Chern classes of the vector bundle…

Given a holomorphic vector bundle $E$ on the twistor space $\mathrm{Tw}(M)$ of a simple hyperk\"ahler manifold $M$, we view it as a family of bundles $\left\{E_I\right\}$ on the fibres $\pi^{-1}(I)$ of the twistor projection $\pi :…

Given a vector bundle $E$ on a tree of smooth rational curves $C$, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for a vector bundle $E'$ on $\mathbb{P}^1$ to specialize to $E$ on $C$, generalizing the rank 2 case, due to Coskun.

We present a general theorem which computes the cohomology of a homological vector field on global sections of vector bundles over smooth affine supervarieties. The hypotheses and results have the clear flavor of a localization theorem.

In this paper we construct indecomposable vector bundles associated to monads on Cartesian products of odd dimension projective spaces. Specifically we establish the existence of monads on…

VB-groupoids are vector bundles in the category of Lie groupoids. They encompass several classical objects, including Lie group representations and 2-vector spaces. Moreover, they provide geometric pictures for 2-term representations up to…

We continue studying net bundles over partially ordered sets (posets), defined as the analogues of ordinary fibre bundles. To this end, we analyze the connection between homotopy, net homology and net cohomology of a poset, giving versions…

We prove that a vector bundle $\pi : E \to M$ is characterized by the Lie algebra generated by all differential operators on $E$ which are eigenvectors of the Lie derivative in the direction of the Euler vector field. Our result is of…

This paper gives a new elementary proof of the theorem that all vector bundles on $\mathbb P^1$ split into the direct sum of line bundles. The proof is based on the study of divisors associated to germs of sections at the generic point.

We study the problem of defining line bundles over certain non-Hausdorff spaces known as Quantum Tori, motivated by the proposed theory of Real Multiplication for real quadratic fields. We draw analogies from the theory of Line Bundles over…

Let $V$ be an algebraic variety over $\mathbb R$. The purpose of this paper is to compare its algebraic Witt group $W(V)$ with a new topological invariant $WR(V_{\mathbb C})$, based on symmetric forms on Real vector bundles (in the sense of…

Consider the diagonal action of the special orthogonal group on the direct sum of a finite number of copies of the standard representation--the underlying field is assumed to be algebraically closed and of characteristic not equal to two.…

Verlinde bundles are vector bundles $V_k$ arising as the direct image $\pi_*(\mathcal L^{\otimes k})$ of polarizations of a proper family of schemes $\pi\colon \mathfrak X \to S$. We study the splitting behavior of Verlinde bundles in the…

We explore an approach to twisted generalized cohomology from the point of view of stable homotopy theory and quasicategory theory provided by arXiv:0810.4535. We explain the relationship to the twisted K-theory provided by Fredholm…

We give an explicit formula for the holonomy of the orientation bundle of a family of real Cauchy-Riemann operators. A special case of this formula resolves the orientability question for spaces of maps from Riemann surfaces with Lagrangian…
