For a partition $a$ and a vector bundle $E$ on a projective variety $X$ let $\mathcal{F}l_s(E)$ be the corresponding flag manifold. There is a line bundle $\it Q_a^s$ on $\mathcal{F}l_s(E)$ with $p:\mathcal{F}l_s(E)\to X $ and $\it p_*Q_a^s…

Hartshorne in "Ample vector bundles" proved that $E$ is ample if and only if $\OOO_{P(E)}(1)$ is ample. Here we generalize this result to flag manifolds associated to a vector bundle $E$ on a complex manifold $X$: For a partition $a$ we…

A recent paper of Totaro develops a theory of $q$-ample bundles in characteristic 0. Specifically, a line bundle $L$ on $X$ is $q$-ample if for every coherent sheaf $\mathcal{F}$ on $X$, there exists an integer $m_0$ such that $m\geq m_0$…

Let $X$ be a smooth variety and let $L$ be an ample line bundle on $X$. If $\pi^{alg}_{1}(X)$ is large, we show that the Seshadri constant $\epsilon(p^{*}L)$ can be made arbitrarily large by passing to a finite \'etale cover…

Let $E$ be a vector bundle and $S_a$, $S_b$ the Schur functors associated to partitions $a$ and $b$. Previously we have shown that ampleness of $S_aE$ implies ampleness of $S_bE$ when $a$ is greater than $b$ in the dominance partial order.…

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…

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 show that if $E$ is an ample vector bundle of rank at least two with some curvature bound on $O_{P(E^*)}(1)$, then $E^*\otimes \det E$ is Kobayashi positive. The proof relies on comparing the curvature of $(\det E^*)^k$ and $S^kE$ for…

In this short article, we determine the bigness of the tangent bundle $T_X$ of the projective bundle $X=\mathbb{P}_C(E)$ associated to a vector bundle $E$ on a smooth projective curve $C$.

Let X be a T-variety, where T is an algebraic torus. We describe a fully faithful functor from the category of T-equivariant vector bundles on X to a certain category of filtered vector bundles on a suitable quotient of X by T. We show that…

The aim of this note is to exhibit explicit sufficient criteria ensuring bigness of globally generated, rank-$r$ vector bundles, $r \geqslant 2$, on smooth, projective varieties of even dimension $d \leqslant 4$. We also discuss connections…

Let $(V, \phi)$ be a holomorphic Lie algebroid over an irreducible smooth complex projective variety $X$ of dimension at least three, and let $E$ be a holomorphic vector bundle on $X$. We establish a necessary and sufficient condition for…

We investigate the positivity properties of the direct image $f_{\ast}(K_{X/Y} \otimes L)$ of the adjoint line bundle associated with a big and nef line bundle $L$, under a smooth fibration $f: X\to Y$ between projective varieties. We show…

We prove a weak version of a bigness criterion for equivariant vector bundles on toric varieties.

We prove that certain vector bundles over surfaces are ample if they are so when restricted to divisors, certain numerical criteria hold, and they are semistable (with respect to $\det(E)$). This result is a higher-rank version of a theorem…

Let $G$ be a connected algebraic group and let $X$ be a smooth projective $G$-variety. In this paper, we prove a sufficient criterion to determine the bigness of the tangent bundle $TX$ using the moment map $\Phi_X^G:T^*X\rightarrow…

We study the following question: Given a vector bundle on a projective variety $X$ such that the restriction of $E$ to every closed curve $C \,\subset\, X$ is ample, under what conditions $E$ is ample? We first consider the case of an…

Let $f_s: X_s \to {\bf {P}}^2$ be the blowing-up of $s$ distinct points and $E$ a vector bundle on $X_s$. Here we give a cohomological criterio which is equivalent to $E \cong f_s^\ast (A)$ with $A$ a direct sum of line bundles. We also…

Let $X$ be a connected, smooth, and projective curve of genus $g$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p >0$. This paper investigates a characteristic-$p$ analogue of a well-known fact concerning flat vector bundles in…

We study geometrical properties of an Ulrich vector bundle $E$ of rank $r$ on a smooth $n$-dimensional variety $X \subseteq \mathbb P^N$. We characterize ampleness of $E$ and of $\det E$ in terms of the restriction to lines contained in…
