We prove that numerous negatively curved simply connected locally compact polyhedral complexes, admitting a discrete cocompact group of automorphisms, have automorphism groups which are locally compact, uncountable, non linear and virtually…

We define equivariant Chern classes of a toric vector bundle over a proper toric scheme over a DVR. We provide a combinatorial description of them in terms of piecewise polynomial functions on the polyhedral complex associated to the toric…

We study the lifting of the Schubert stratification of the homogeneous space of complete real flags of $R^{n+1}$ to its universal covering group $Spin_{n+1}$. We call the lifted strata the Bruhat cells of $Spin_{n+1}$, in keeping with the…

Let G be the fundamental group of the complement of a K(G,1) hyperplane arrangement (such as Artin's pure braid group) or more generally a homologically toroidal group (as defined in the paper). The subgroup of elements in the complex…

Let G be a Lie goup, let M and N be smooth connected G-manifolds, let f be a smooth G-map from M to N, and let P denote the fiber of f. Given a closed and equivariantly closed relative 2-form for f with integral periods, we construct the…

After introducing the simplicial manifolds, such as the different ways of defining the differential forms on them, we summarized a canonical way of calculating the characteristic classes of a $G$-principal bundle by computing them on the…

The $L^2$-cohomology of a locally symmetric variety is known to have the topological interpretation as the intersection homology of its Baily-Borel Satake compactification. In this article, we observe that even without the Hermitian…

Let $M_X(r,\xi)$ be the moduli space of stable vector bundles, on a smooth complex projective curve $X$, of rank $r$ and fixed determinant $\xi$ such that $\deg(\xi)$ is coprime to $r$. If $E$ is a vector bundle $M_X(r,\xi)$ whose…

To a simplicial complex, we associate a square-free monomial ideal in the polynomial ring generated by its vertex set over a field. We study algebraic properties of this ideal via combinatorial properties of the simplicial complex. By…

In this note, we study monodromies of algebraic connections on the trivial vector bundle. We prove that on a smooth complex affine curve, any monodromy arises as the underlying local system of an algebraic connection on the trivial bundle.…

In this paper we explore algebraic and geometric structures that arise on parallelizable manifolds. Given a parallelizable manifold $\mathbb{L}$, there exists a global trivialization of the tangent bundle, which defines a map…

Geometric Quantization is a term used to describe a wide collection of techniques dating back to the 1960s in the work of Kirillov, Kostant, and Souriau, which take symplectic manifolds and produce complex vector spaces. The name comes from…

We classify equivariant topological complex vector bundles over real projective plane under a compact Lie group (not necessarily effective) action. It is shown that nonequivariant Chern classes and isotropy representations at (at most)…

Let X be a smooth projective variety defined over an algebraically closed field k. Nori constructed a category of vector bundles on X, called essentially finite vector bundles, which is reminiscent of the category of representations of the…

We find an algorithm to compute the cohomology groups of spherical vector bundles on complex projective K3 surfaces, in terms of their Mukai vectors. In many good cases, we give significant simplifications of the algorithm. As an…

We study the cohomological classification of vector bundles on smooth real affine surfaces and threefolds. We show that, as was observed in joint work in A. Asok and J. Fasel and in a coming joint paper with S. Banerjee and J. Fasel, under…

Let $X$ be an irreducible smooth complex projective variety. Let $G$ be a linear algebraic group over $\mathbb{C}$. We define the notion of Lie algebroid valued connection on holomorphic principal $G$--bundles on $X$, and study their basic…

We propose a matrix regularization of vector bundles over a general closed K\"ahler manifold. This matrix regularization is given as a natural generalization of the Berezin-Toeplitz quantization and gives a map from sections of a vector…

We discuss nonabelian bundle gerbes and their differential geometry using simplicial methods. Associated to any crossed module there is a simplicial group NC, the nerve of the 1-category defined by the crossed module and its geometric…
