Geometrically, quantum mechanics is defined by a complex line bundle $L_\hbar$ over the classical particle phase space $T^*{R}^3\cong{R}^6$ with coordinates $x^a$ and momenta $p_a$, $a,...=1,2,3$. This quantum bundle $L_\hbar$ is endowed…
A vector bundle with connection over a supermanifold leads naturally to a notion of parallel transport along superpaths. In this note we show that {\it every} such parallel transport along superpaths comes form a vector bundle with…
"Quaternionic" vector bundles are the objects which describe the topological phases of quantum systems subjected to an odd time-reversal symmetry (class AII). In this work we prove that the FKMM invariant provides the correct fundamental…
We prove a version of quantum geometric Langlands conjecture in characteristic $p$. Namely, we construct an equivalence of certain localizations of derived categories of twisted crystalline $\mathcal D$-modules on the stack of rank $N$…
It is shown that every quantum principal bundle with a compact structure group is a Hopf-Galois extension. This property naturally extends to the level of general differential structures, so that every differential calculus over a quantum…
We introduce a certain type of representations for the quantum Teichmuller space of a punctured surface, which we call local representations. We show that, up to finitely many choices, these purely algebraic representations are classified…
The characteristic forms in the bundle of connections of a principal bundle P over M determine the characteristic classes of P for degree less or equal to the dimension of M, and differential forms on the space of connections for higher…
A flat vector bundle on an algebraic variety supports two natural definable structures given by the flat and algebraic coordinates. In this note we show these two structures coincide, subject to a condition on the local monodromy at…
It is easy to imagine that a subvariety of a vector bundle, whose intersection with every fibre is a vector subspace of constant dimension, must necessarily be a sub-bundle. We give two examples to show that this is not true, and several…
A VB-algebroid is essentially defined as a Lie algebroid object in the category of vector bundles. There is a one-to-one correspondence between VB-algebroids and certain flat Lie algebroid superconnections, up to a natural notion of…
We study the existence of a natural `linearisation' process for generalised connections on an affine bundle. It is shown that this leads to an affine generalised connection over a prolonged bundle, which is the analogue of what is called a…
We consider natural differential operations acting on sections of tensor vector bundles. Arrising problems can be reformulated as invariant theoretical problems (the IT-reduction). We give examples of usage of the IT-reduction. In…
It is shown that a strong system of vector fields on a fiber bundle in the sense of [Modugno, M. Systems of connections and invariant lagrangians. In: Differential geometric methods in theoretical physics, Proc. 15th Int. Conf., DGM,…
Graded bundles are a particularly nice class of graded manifolds and represent a natural generalisation of vector bundles. By exploiting the formalism of supermanifolds to describe Lie algebroids we define the notion of a weighted…
The author's attempt to construct a local causal model of quantum theory (QT) that includes quantum field theory (QFT) resulted in the identification of "quantum objects" as the elementary units of causality and locality. Quantum objects…
A quantum principal bundle is constructed for every Coxeter group acting on a finite-dimensional Euclidean space $E$, and then a connection is also defined on this bundle. The covariant derivatives associated to this connection are the…
An algebraic framework for noncommutative bundles with (quantum) homogeneous fibres is proposed. The framework relies on the use of principal coalgebra extensions which play the role of principal bundles in noncommutative geometry which…
We provide several results on the existence of metrics of non-negative sectional curvature on vector bundles over certain cohomogeneity one manifolds and homogeneous spaces up to suitable stabilization. Beside explicit constructions of the…
Given a vector bundle $E$ of rank $r$ and degree $d$ on a curve $C$ of genus $g$, one can associate to $E$ in a natural way several other vector bundles. For example, one can take wedge powers of $E$. If $E$ is generated by global sections,…
We study the reduction of non-autonomous regular Lagrangian systems by symmetries, which are generated by vector fields associated with connections in the configuration bundle of the system $Q\times\real\to\real$. These kind of symmetries…
