We define a new symmetry for morphisms of vector bundles, called triality symmetry, and compute Chern class formulas for the degeneracy loci of such morphisms. In an appendix, we show how to canonically associate an octonion algebra bundle…
We develop vertex and factorisation algebra analogues of the theory of quasitriangular bialgebras. Analogously to the classical theory, we prove their categories of representations are controlled by spectral R-matrices. In the vertex…
We study sections of the relative Picard bundle of a family of curves of genus $g \geq 2$ through the rank of the associated normal function. Using Griffiths' formula for the infinitesimal invariant and higher Schiffer variations, we…
In this paper, we systematically study a class of essentially normal operators by using the geometry method from the Cowen-Douglas theory and prove a Brown-Douglas-Fillmore theorem in the Cowen-Douglas theory. More precisely, the Chern…
There exists on each Teichm\"uller space $T_g$ (comprising compact Riemann surfaces of genus $g$), a natural sequence of determinant (of cohomology) line bundles, $DET_n$, related to each other via certain ``Mumford isomorphisms''. There is…
The main purpose of the present paper is to construct Riemannian almost product structures on the $(1,1)-$tensor bundle equipped with Cheeger-Gromoll type metric over a Riemannian manifold and present some results concerning with these…
The following results are proved: Theorem 1. A totally real semiparallel submanifold of constant curvature with parallel f-structure in the normal bundle of a K\"ahler manifold N is flat or a totally geodesic submanifold of N. Theorem 2. A…
We apply our earlier work on the higher-dimensional analogue of the Mumford conjecture to two questions. Inspired by work of Ebert we prove non-triviality of certain characteristic classes of bundles of smooth closed manifolds. Inspired by…
We discuss stability conditions for all rank-2 ample vector bundles on Hirzebruch surfaces with the second Chern class less than 7.
In [20] Esnault asked whether on a general quotient surface singularity the rank and the first Chern class distinguish isomorphism classes of indecomposable reflexive modules. Wunram gave a contraexample in [46] showing two different full…
In this paper, we apply the theory of Chern-Cheeger-Simons to construct canonical invariants associated to a $r$-simplex whose points parametrize flat connections on a smooth manifold $X$. These invariants lie in degrees…
Let $ E \xrightarrow[\text{}]{\pi} B$ be an oriented circle bundle over an oriented closed surface $B$. A quasisection is a smooth surface ${Q}$ (either closed or bordered) mapped by a generic smooth mapping $q$ to $E$ such that $\pi\circ…
Let E be an elementary abelian p-group of rank r and let k be a field of characteristic p. We introduce functors F_i from finitely generated kE-modules of constant Jordan type to vector bundles over projective space of dimension r-1. The…
This paper treats the strict semi-stability of the symmetric powers $S^k E$ of a stable vector bundle $E$ of rank $2$ with even degree on a smooth projective curve $C$ of genus $g \geq 2$. The strict semi-stability of $S^2 E$ is equivalent…
Let X be a Hermitian locally symmetric space. We prove that every Chern class of X has a canonical lift to the cohomology of the Baily- Borel-Satake compactification X* of X and that the resulting Chern numbers satisfy the Hirzebruch…
We prove the existence theorem for basic elements in the quasi-projective case, extending results of Eisenbud-Evans and Bruns from the affine case. We give several geometric applications. For example, we show that every local complete…
This article explores the relationship between Schubert varieties and equivariant embeddings, using the framework of homogeneous fiber bundles over flag varieties. We show that the homogenous fiber bundles obtained from…
Let $(E,\varphi)$ be decorated vector bundle of type $(a,b,c,N)$ on a smooth projective curve $X$. There is a suitable semistability condition for such objects which has to be checked for any weighted filtration of $E$. We prove, at least…
We formulate a tropical analogue of Grothendieck's section conjecture: that for every stable graph G of genus g>2, and every field k, the generic curve with reduction type G over k satisfies the section conjecture. We prove many cases of…
Let $G$ be a simple simply-connected connected linear algebraic group over $\mathbb{C}$. We proved a $2$-birational Torelli theorem for the moduli space of semistable principal $G$-bundles over a smooth curve of genus $\geq 3$, which says…
