A Gross space is a vector space E of infinite dimension over some field F, which is endowed with a symmetric bilinear form Phi:E^2 -> F and has the property that every infinite dimensional subspace U subseteq E satisfies dim U^perp < dim E.…

Stratified-algebraic vector bundles on real algebraic varieties have many desirable features of algebraic vector bundles but are more flexible. We give a characterization of the compact real algebraic varieties having the following…

This paper studies Cheeger deformations on $\mathrm{S}^3, \mathrm{SO}(3)$ principal bundles to obtain conditions for positive sectional curvature submersion metrics. We conclude, in particular, a stronger version of the Petersen--Wilhelm…

We consider the descent of line bundles to GIT quotients of products of flag varieties. Let $G$ be a simple, connected, algebraic group over $\mathbb{C}$. We fix a Borel subgroup $B$ and consider the diagonal action of $G$ on the projective…

The present paper is related to a conjecture made by Green and Lazarsfeld concerning 1-linear syzygies of curves embedded by complete linear systems of sufficiently large degrees. Given a smooth, irreducible, complex, projective curve $X$,…

Let $E\to X$ be a vector bundle of rank $r$ over a compact complex manifold $X$ of dimension $n$. It is known that if the line bundle $O_{P(E^*)}(1)$ over the projectivized bundle $P(E^*)$ is positive, then $E\otimes \det E$ is Nakano…

Let $Y$ be a normal and projective variety over an algebraically closed field $k$ and $V$ a vector bundle over $Y$. We prove that if there exist a $k$-scheme $X$ and a finite surjective morphism $g:X\to Y$ that trivializes $V$ then $V$ is…

A theorem of Weil and Atiyah says that a holomorphic vector bundle $E$ on a compact Riemann surface $X$ admits a holomorphic connection if and only if the degree of every direct summand of $E$ is zero. Fix a finite subset $S$ of $X$, and…

Over a scheme with 2 invertible, we show that a vector bundle of rank four has a sub or quotient line bundle if and only if the canonical symmetric bilinear form on its exterior square has a lagrangian subspace. For this, we exploit a…

The fractional list packing number $\chi_{\ell}^{\bullet}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is a graph invariant that has recently arisen from the study of disjoint list-colourings. It measures how large the lists of a list-assignment $L:V(G)\rightarrow…
