Let Gr(2, E) be the Grassmann bundle of two-planes associated to a general bundle E over a curve X. We prove that an embedding of Gr(2, E) by a certain twist of the relative Pl\"ucker map is not secant defective. This yields a new and more…

Let \pi : X -> S be a finite type morphism of noetherian schemes. A smooth formal embedding of X (over S) is a bijective closed immersion X -> \frak{X}, where \frak{X} is a noetherian formal scheme, formally smooth over S. An example of…

Let $X$ be a smooth, pointed Riemann surface of genus zero, and $G$ a simple, simply-connected complex algebraic group. Associated to a finite number of weights of $G$ and a level is a vector space called the space of conformal blocks, and…

A subbundle of a Hermitian vector bundle $(E, h)$ can be metrically and differentiably defined by the orthogonal projection onto this subbundle. A weakly holomorphic subbundle of a Hermitian holomorphic bundle is, by definition, an…

For a stable irreducible curve $X$ and a torsion free sheaf $L$ on $X$ of rank one and degree $d$, D.S. Nagaraj and C.S. Seshadri ([NS]) defined a closed subset $\Cal U_X(r,L)$ in the moduli space of semistable torsion free sheaves of rank…

For a given stratified bundle $E$ on $X$, we construct an irreducible closed subvariety $\sN(E)_S$ of the so called representation space $R(\sO_{X_S},\xi_S,P)\to S$ such that $\sN(E)_S(\overline{\mathbb{F}}_q)$ contains a dense set of…

Since the appearance of the paper by Bilal & al. in 1991, it has been widely assumed that W-algebras originating from the Hamiltonian reduction of an SL(n,C)-bundle over a Riemann surface give rise to a flat connection, in which the…

We define Seshadri constants for Higgs bundles on smooth projective varieties over algebraically closed fields of characteristic zero. This definition is inspired by and analogous to the notion of Seshadri constants for ordinary vector…

We consider a uniform $r$-bundle $E$ on a complex rational homogeneous space $X$ %over complex number field $\mathbb{C}$ and show that if $E$ is poly-uniform with respect to all the special families of lines and the rank $r$ is less than or…

We apply a study of orders in quaternion algebras, to the differential geometry of Riemann surfaces. The least length of a closed geodesic on a hyperbolic surface is called its systole, and denoted syspi_1. P. Buser and P. Sarnak…

Let $X$ be a connected scheme, smooth and separated over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p\geq 0$, let $f:Y\rightarrow X$ be a smooth proper morphism and $x$ a geometric point on $X$. We prove that the tensor invariants…

Let P be a parabolic subgroup of a semisimple complex Lie group G defined by a subset \Sigma of simple roots of G, and let E_\phi be a homogeneous vector bundle over the flag manifold G/P corresponding to a linear representation \phi of P.…

We develop a theory of \'etale parallel transport for vector bundles with numerically flat reduction on a $p$-adic variety. This construction is compatible with natural operations on vector bundles, Galois equivariant and functorial with…

Let $G$ be a semisimple algebraic group with Lie algebra $\g$. In 1979, J. Dixmier proved that any vector field annihilating all $G$-invariant polynomials on $\g$ lies in the $\bbk[\g]$-module generated by the "adjoint vector fields", i.e.,…

A result of Andr\'e Weil allows one to describe rank $n$ vector bundles on a smooth complete algebraic curve up to isomorphism via a double quotient of the set $\mathrm{GL}_n(\mathbb{A})$ of regular matrices over the ring of ad\`eles (over…

In 1970, Samuel I. Goldberg and Kentaro Yano defined the notion of noninvariant hypersurface of a Sasakian manifold [1]. In this paper we have studied the properties of parallel vector fields with respect to induced connection on the…

We study a natural map from representations of a free (resp. free abelian) group of rank g in GL_r(C), to holomorphic vector bundles of degree zero over a compact Riemann surface X of genus g (resp. complex torus X of dimension g). This map…

Let $E$ be a vector bundle on a smooth complex projective variety $X$. We study the family of sections $s_t\in H^0(E\otimes L_t)$ where $L_t\in Pic^0(X)$ is a family of topologically trivial line bundle and $L_0=\mathcal O_X,$ that is, we…

Let $f: X\to Y$ be a proper surjective morphism of varieties defined over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic. We prove that if $f$ has geometrically connected fibers then the induced homomorphism of $F$-divided…
