In this paper we study the Brill Noether locus of rank 2, (semi)stable vector bundles with at least two sections and of suitable degrees on a general $\nu$-gonal curve. We classify its reduced components whose dimensions are at least the…
We extend the notion of an almost flat bundle over a closed Riemannian manifold to bundles over simplicial complexes, and prove that up to a constant factor, this notion is invariant under pullback via maps which induce isomorphisms on…
In this version referee's comments have been incorporated. Besides minor corrections, new material has been added on irrational markings. To appear in Ann. Inst. Fourier. We prove a condition for the existence of flat bundles on the…
We prove that the bundles with flat connections on configuration spaces associated to braided fusion categories, as well as the bundles with flat connections on moduli spaces of curves (conformal blocks) associated to modular fusion…
We develop the theory of geometric Eisenstein series and constant term functors for $\ell$-adic sheaves on stacks of bundles on the Fargues-Fontaine curve. In particular, we prove essentially optimal finiteness theorems for these functors,…
In this paper, we show that the cohomology of a general stable bundle on a Hirzebruch surface is determined by the Euler characteristic provided that the first Chern class satisfies necessary intersection conditions. More generally, we…
Assume that $X$ is a compact complex analytic variety which has quotient singularities in codimension 2, and that $\mathcal{F}$ is a reflexive sheaf on $X$. Using orbifold modifications, we can define first and second homological Chern…
Given a complex manifold $X$, a normal crossing divisor $D\subset X$ whose irreducible components $D_1,...,D_s$ are smooth, and a choice of natural numbers $r=(r_1,...,r_s)$, we construct a manifold $X(D,\ur)$ with an action of a torus…
Morita showed that for each power of the Euler class, there are examples of flat $\mathbb{S}^1$-bundles for which the power of the Euler class does not vanish. Haefliger asked if the same holds for flat odd-dimensional sphere bundles. In…
In this article, we prove the orbifold version of the Bogomolov-Gieseker inequality for stable $\mathbb Q$-sheaves on K\"ahler varieties, generalizing our earlier work \cite{GP25} in dimension three. We also provide a characterization of…
This is the first of two articles in which we give a proof - for a broad class of four-manifolds - of Witten's conjecture that the Donaldson and Seiberg-Witten series coincide, at least through terms of degree less than or equal to c-2,…
This paper proves a number of flatness results for centralizers of sections of a reductive group scheme over a general base scheme. To this end, we establish relative versions of the Jordan decomposition. Using our results, we obtain a…
We calculate the characteristic classes for flat SL(n,R) and Sp(2m,R)-bundles over a compact surface as functions of the spectral data in the Higgs bundle description, which consists of the points of order 2 in an abelian variety. Using…
In this paper, by using the regulator map of Beilinson-Deligne, we show that the quantization condition posed by Gukov is true for the SL_2(\mathbb{C}) character variety of the hyperbolic knot in S^3. Furthermore, we prove that the…
This paper contains results on stable bundles of rank 2 with space of sections of dimension 4 on a smooth irreducible projective algebraic curve $C$. There is a known lower bound on the degree for the existence of such bundles; the main…
It is well-known that a minimal graph of codimension one is stable, i.e. the second variation of the area functional is non-negative. This is no longer true for higher codimensional minimal graphs. In this note, we prove that a minimal…
The existence of bivariant Chern classes was conjectured by W.Fulton and R.MacPherson and proved by J.P.Brasselet for cellular morphisms of analytic varieties. In this paper we show that restricted to morphisms whose target varieties are…
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 prove that Schubert and Richardson varieties in flag manifolds are uniquely determined by their equivariant cohomology classes, as well as a stronger result that replaces Schubert varieties with closures of Bialynicki-Birula cells under…
We exhaustively classify topological equivariant complex vector bundles over two-sphere under a compact Lie group (not necessarily effective) action. It is shown that inequivariant Chern classes and isotropy representations at (at most)…
