Let $M$ be the moduli space of generalized parabolic bundles (GPBs) of rank $r$ and degree $d$ on a smooth curve $X$. Let $M_{\bar L}$ be the closure of its subset consisting of GPBs with fixed determinant ${\bar L}$. We define a moduli…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective complex variety with an ample line bundle $L$, and let $D$ be a simple normal crossing divisor. We establish the Kobayashi-Hitchin correspondence between tame harmonic bundles on $X-D$ and $\mu_L$-stable…

A recently introduced canonical divergence $\mathcal{D}$ for a dual structure $(\mathrm{g},\nabla,\nabla^*)$ is discussed in connection to other divergence functions. Finally, open problems concerning symmetry properties are outlined.

The parallel linear transports defined by flat linear connection are axiomatically described. On this basis a number of properties, some of which are new, of these transports and connections are derived.

The paper develops the Finsler-like geometry on the 1-jet space for the jet conformal Minkowski (JCM) metric, which naturally extends the Minkowski metric in the Chernov-Pavlov framework. To this aim there are determined the nonlinear…

We study the geometry of the Hitchin fibration for $\mathcal{L}$-valued $G$-Higgs bundles over a smooth projective curve of genus $g$, where $G$ is a reductive group and $\mathcal{L}$ is a suitably positive line bundle. We show that the…

This paper is concerned with the doubly degenerate nutrient taxis system $u_t=\nabla \cdot(u^{l-1} v \nabla u)- \nabla \cdot\left(u^{l} v \nabla v\right)+ uv$ and $v_t=\Delta v-u v$ for some $l \geqslant 1$, subjected to homogeneous Neumann…

Almost hypercomplex manifolds with Hermitian and anti-Hermitian metrics are considered. A linear connection $D$ is introduced such that the structure of these manifolds is parallel with respect to D. Of special interest is the class of the…

We review the theory of quaternionic Kahler and hyperkahler structures. Then we consider the tangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold M with a metric connection D (with torsion) and with its well estabilished canonical complex structure.…

We study a tower of normal coverings over a compact K\"ahler manifold with holomorphic line bundles. When the line bundle is sufficiently positive, we obtain an effective estimate, which implies the Bergman stability. As a consequence, we…

In this paper, we survey recent developments concerning the stability of naturally defined bundles on curves that play a central role in the deformation theory of the curve.

The aim of this paper is to construct a natural Riemann-Lagrange differential geometry on 1-jet spaces, in the sense of nonlinear connections, generalized Cartan connections, d-torsions, d-curvatures, jet electromagnetic fields and jet…

A diffeological connection on a diffeological vector pseudo-bundle is defined just the usual one on a smooth vector bundle; this is possible to do, because there is a standard diffeological counterpart of the cotangent bundle. On the other…

We use sets of trivial line bundles for the realization of gerbes. For 1-gerbes the structure arises naturally for the Weyl fermion vacuum bundle at a fixed time. The Schwinger term is an obstruction in the triviality of a 1-gerbe.

Let $M$ be a compact hyperkahler manifold equipped with a Lagrangian fibration $\pi:\; M \to X$, and $M'$ the smooth locus of $\pi$. We prove that over a complement to a codimension $\geq 2$ subset in $X$, the projection $\pi:\; M' \to X$…

In this note we make use of some properties of vector fields on a manifold to give an alternate proof to [3] for the equivalence between connections and parallel transport on vector bundles over manifolds. Out of the proof will emerge a new…

We use the Baum-Douglas construction of K-homology to explicitly describe various aspects of D-branes in Type II superstring theory in the absence of background supergravity form fields. We rigorously derive various stability criteria for…
