Let $X$ be a nonsingular complex projective toric variety. We address the question of semi-stability as well as stability for the tangent bundle $T{X}$. In particular, a complete answer is given when $X$ is a Fano toric variety of dimension…

We present a proof of the algorithm for computing line bundle valued cohomology classes over toric varieties conjectured by R.~Blumenhagen, B.~Jurke and the authors (arXiv:1003.5217) and suggest a kind of Serre duality for combinatorial…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety over the complex numbers. One knows by the Cone Theorem that the closed cone of curves of $X$ is rational polyhedral whenever $c_1(X)$ is ample. For varieties $X$ such that $c_1(X)$ is not ample,…

For a Riemann surface $X$ and the moduli of regularly stable $G$-bundles $M$, there is a naturally occuring "$adjoint$" vector bundle over $X \times M$. One can take the determinant of this vector bundle with respect to the projection map…

We show that Horrock's criterion for the splitting of vector bundles on $\PP^n$ can be extended to vector bundles on multiprojective spaces and to smooth projective varieties with the weak CM property (see Definition 3.11). As a main tool…

Let $X$ be a geometrically irreducible smooth projective curve, of genus at least three, defined over the field of real numbers. Let $G$ be a connected reductive affine algebraic group, defined over $\mathbb R$, such that $G$ is nonabelian…

In this paper we obtain an explicit formula for the number of curves in a compact complex surface $X$ (passing through the right number of generic points), that has up to one node and one singularity of codimension $k$, provided the total…

Using the $\sharp$-minimal model program of uniruled varieties we show that for any pair $(X, \H)$ consisting of a reduced and irreducible variety $X$ of dimension $k \geq 3$ and a globally generated big line bundle $\H$ on $X$ with $d:=…

If $ D \in X$ is a curve with multiple points in a surface, a parabolic bundle defined on $(X;D)$ away from the singularities can be extended in several ways to a parabolic bundle on a resolution of singularities. We investigate the…

Let Y be a subvariety of a smooth projective variety X, and V a vector bundle on X. Given that the restriction of V to Y splits into a direct sum of line bundles, we ask whether V splits on X. I answer this question in affirmative if holds:…

In this paper we characterize smooth complex projective varieties that admit a quadric bundle structure on some dense open subset in terms of the geometry of certain families of rational curves.

A generalized Euler sequence over a complete normal variety X is the unique extension of the trivial bundle V \otimes O_X by the sheaf of differentials \Omega_X, given by the inclusion of a linear space V in Ext^1(O_X,\Omega_X). For…

We study constraints on the Chern classes of a vector bundle on a singular variety. We use this constraint to study a variety which carries a Hodge cycle that are not a linear combination of Chern classes of vector bundles on it.

Let $n \in \mathbb{N}_{\geq 2}$. We prove that for every $k \geq 4$ there exist uniform but non-homogeneous Steiner bundles on $\mathbb{P}^n$ of $k$-type with disconnected splitting type, and we further investigate almost-uniform Steiner…
