A constructive approach to differential calculus on quantum principal bundles is presented. The calculus on the bundle is built in an intrinsic manner, starting from given graded (differential) *-algebras representing horizontal forms on…

We give a classification theorem of certain geometric objects, called torsors over the sheaf of K-theory spaces, in terms of Tate vector bundles. This allows us to present a very natural and simple, alternative approach to the Tate central…

In our previous paper [International Journal of Theoretical Physics, 41 (2002), 1165-1190] we have shown, following the tradition of synthetic differential geometry, that div and rot are uniquely determined, so long as we require that the…

We introduce a class of diffeological spaces, called elastic, on which the left Kan extension of the tangent functor of smooth manifolds defines an abstract tangent functor in the sense of Rosicky. On elastic spaces there is a natural…

We construct manifestly superconformal field theories in six dimensions which contain a non-Abelian tensor multiplet. In particular, we show how principal 3-bundles over a suitable twistor space encode solutions to these self-dual tensor…

In a natural way, the local diffeomorphisms of a manifold onto itself act on the reference frame bundles of any order and on the bundles associated with them. Due to the transitivity, the invariants by diffeomorphisms of an associated…

We describe a variant of K-theory for spaces with involution, built from vector bundles which are sent to their negative under the involution.

Let the vector bundle $\mathcal{E}$ be a deformation of the tangent bundle over the Grassmannian $G(k,n)$. We compute the ring structure of sheaf cohomology valued in exterior powers of $\mathcal{E}$, also known as the polymology. This is…

This paper introduces discrete differential form spaces over two-dimensional manifold meshes that feature enhanced subdivision-induced inter-element regularity compared to conventional finite element (FE) spaces. This increase in smoothness…

We describe a topological predual to differential forms constructed as an inductive limit of a sequence of Banach spaces. This subspace of currents has nice properties, in that Dirac chains and polyhedral chains are dense, and its operator…

We give a canonical description of the formal moduli space of a vector bundle on a variety; as an application, we prove the closedness of certain differential forms on moduli corresponding to the trace form on the endomorphism algebra of…

This is a study of twisted K-theory on a product space $T \times M$. The twisting comes from a decomposable cup product class which applies the 1-cohomology of $T$ and the 2-cohomology of $M$. In the case of a topological product, we give a…

Following the approach of Budzy\'nski and Kondracki, we define covariant differential algebras and connections on locally trivial quantum principal fibre bundles. We also consider covariant derivatives, connection forms and curvatures and…

We develop some basic facts on deformations of exterior differential ideals on a smooth complex algebraic variety. With these tools we study deformations of several types of differential ideals, leading to several irreducible components of…

Conformal blocks form a system of vector bundles over the moduli space of complex curves with marked points. We discuss various aspects of these bundles. In particular, we present conjectures about the dimensions of sub-bundles. They imply…

In this paper, we develop twisted $K$-theory for stacks, where the twisted class is given by an $S^1$-gerbe over the stack. General properties, including the Mayer-Vietoris property, Bott periodicity, and the product structure $K^i_\alpha…

We study fiber bundles where the fibers are not a group $G$, but a free $G$-space with disjoint orbits. These bundles closely resemble principal bundles, hence we call them semi-principal bundles. The study of such bundles is facilitated by…

In this paper we characterize the fiber representations of equivariant complex vector bundles over a circle and classify these bundles. We also treat the triviality of equivariant complex vector bundles over a circle by investigating the…

We show that tensor products of semiample vector bundles are semiample. For k-ampleness in the sens of Sommese, we show that over compact complex manifolds tensor products of semiample and k-ample vector bundles are k-ample, and the sum of…

K-theoretic Donaldson invariants are holomorphic Euler characteristics of determinant line bundles on moduli spaces of rank 2 sheaves on surfaces. We develop an algorithm which determines the generating functions of K-theoretic Donaldson…
