We describe dual notions of tangent bundle for an infinity-topos, each underlying a tangent infinity-category in the sense of Bauer, Burke and the author. One of those notions is Lurie's tangent bundle functor for presentable…
Categorical bundles provide a natural framework for gauge theories involving multiple gauge groups. Unlike the case of traditional bundles there are distinct notions of triviality, and hence also of local triviality, for categorical…
In this document, we study the interaction between different geometric structures that can be defined as morphisms of sections of the generalized tangent bundle $\mathbb TM:= TM\oplus T^*M\to M$. In particular, we show the behaviour of…
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…
Given a vector bundle $A\to M$ we study the geometry of the graded manifolds $T^*[k]A[1]$, including their canonical symplectic structures, compatible Q-structures and Lagrangian Q-submanifolds. We relate these graded objects to classical…
In this paper, we show a strange duality isomorphism at level one for the space of generalized theta functions on the moduli spaces of alternating anti-invariant vector bundles in the ramified case. These anti-invariant vector bundles…
We prove that the tangent bundle of a generic space of planar n-gons with specified side lengths, identified under isometry, plus a trivial line bundle is isomorphic to (n-2) times a canonical line bundle. We then discuss consequences for…
It is interesting to know, how far we can generalize the notion of a group-valued cocycle keeping the property to determine a bundle. We find a generalization for pairs of cocycles and show how these generalized pairs of cocycles can still…
We introduce a notion of tropical vector bundle on a tropical toric variety which is a tropical analogue of a torus equivariant vector bundle on a toric variety. Alternatively it can be called a toric matroid bundle. We define equivariant…
This paper investigates the cohomological property of vector bundles on biprojective space. We will give a criterion for a vector bundle to be isomorphic to the tensor product of pullbacks of exterior products of differential sheaves.
This paper is based on my talk at ICM on recent progress in a number of classical problems of linear algebra and representation theory, based on new approach, originated from geometry of stable bundles and geometric invariant theory.
The linear transports along paths in vector bundles introduced in Ref. [1] are applied to the special case of tensor bundles over a given differentiable manifold. Links with the transports along paths generated by derivations of tensor…
We explain how to define an embedding of a tame stack over a noetherian ring into a certain generalization of a weighted projective stack using a notion of ample vector bundle on the stack. As applications we construct algebraic moduli…
We construct the categories of standard vector bundles over schemes and define direct sum and tensor product. These categories are equivalent to the usual categories of vector bundles with additional properties. The tensor product is…
The construction of double point cobordism groups of vector bundles on varieties in the work [Lee-P] (arXiv:1002.1500 [math.AG]) of Yuan-Pin Lee and Rahul Pandharipande gives immediately double point cobordism groups of filtered vector…
We introduce spherical T-duality, which relates pairs of the form $(P,H)$ consisting of a principal $SU(2)$-bundle $P\rightarrow M$ and a 7-cocycle $H$ on $P$. Intuitively spherical T-duality exchanges $H$ with the second Chern class…
We prove formulas for the cohomology and the extension groups of tautological bundles on punctual Quot schemes over complex smooth projective curves. As a corollary, we show that the tautological bundle determines the isomorphism class of…
Let E be a rank two vector bundle on a scheme X. The following three structures are shown to be equivalent : a) A primitive quadratic map q: E --> L, with values in an invertible module L. b) A double covering f: Y --> X endowed with an…
We use noncommutative topology to study T-duality for principal torus bundles with H-flux. We characterize precisely when there is a "classical" T-dual, i.e., a dual bundle with dual H-flux, and when the T-dual must be "non-classical," that…
We introduce a new `Thom class' formulation of topological T-duality for principal torus bundles. This definition is equivalent to the established one of Bunke, Rumpf, and Schick but has the virtue of removing the global assumptions on the…
