In this note we define Chern-Simons classes of a superconnection $D+L$ on a complex supervector bundle $E$ such that $D$ is flat and preserves the grading, and $L$ is an odd endomorphism of $E$ on a supermanifold. As an application we…

For a discrete group $\Gamma$, we study vector bundles $E_\rho$ on compact subsets of $B\Gamma$ associated to almost representations $\rho:\Gamma \to U(n)$. We compute the first Chern class of $E_\rho$ in terms of $\rho$. When $\rho$ is…

We give a new proof of the classification due to Peternell-Szurek-Wi\'{s}niewski of nef vector bundles on a projective space with the first Chern class less than three and on a smooth hyperquadric with the first Chern class less than two…

We consider closed manifolds that admit a metric locally isometric to a product of symmetric planes. For such manifolds, we prove that the Euler characteristic is an obstruction to the existence of flat structures, confirming an old…

Representations of certain vertex algebras, here called of CohFT-type, can be used to construct vector bundles of coinvariants and conformal blocks on moduli spaces of stable curves [DGT2]. We show that such bundles define semisimple…

We prove that the Gromov--Witten theory (GWT) of a projective bundle can be determined by the Chern classes and the GWT of the base. It completely answers a question raised in a previous paper (arXiv:1607.00740). Its consequences include…

This is the revised version of our previous preprint. In this paper, we establish a generic smoothness result for moduli space of semistable sheaves of arbitrary rank over surfaces provided that the second Chern class of the sheaves is…

In this note, we investigate the Chern classes of flat bundles in the arithmetic Deligne Cohomology, introduced by Green-Griffiths, Asakura-Saito. We show nontriviality of the Chern classes in some cases and the proof also indicates that…

In this article we announce some results on compactifying moduli spaces of rank-2 vector bundles on surfaces by spaces of vector bundles on trees of surfaces. This is thought as an algebraic counterpart of the so called bubbling of vector…

We define equivariant Chern classes of a toric vector bundle over a proper toric scheme over a DVR. We provide a combinatorial description of them in terms of piecewise polynomial functions on the polyhedral complex associated to the toric…

We introduce tropical vector bundles, morphisms and rational sections of these bundles and define the pull-back of a tropical vector bundle and of a rational section along a morphism. Afterwards we use the bounded rational sections of a…

We study the homotopy aspects of the twisted Chern classes of torsion bundle gerbe modules. Using Sullivan's rational homotopy theory, we realize the twisted Chern classes at the level of classifying spaces. The construction suggests a…

We exhaustively classify topological equivariant complex vector bundles over two-torus under a compact Lie group (not necessarily effective) action. It is shown that inequivariant Chern classes and isotropy representations at (at most) six…

Motivated by the Chern-Weil theory, we prove that for a given vector bundle $E$ on a smooth scheme $X$ over a field $k$ of any characteristic, the Chern classes of $E$ in the Hodge cohomology can be recovered from the Atiyah class. Although…
