We pose some questions about spaces parametrizing rational curves on rationally connected varieties. We give a partial answer for cubic threefolds. Many of our results were previously proved by Iliev, Markushevich and Tikhimirov by…

For a vector bundle E on a model of a smooth projective curve over a p-adic number field a p-adic representation of the geometric fundamental group of X has been defined in work with Annette Werner if the reduction of E is strongly…

We classify absolutely split vector bundles on proper $k$-schemes. More precise, we prove that the closed points of the Picard scheme are in one-to-one correspondence with indecomposable absolutely split vector bundles. Furthermore, we…

We introduce a theory of twisted simplicial distributions on simplicial principal bundles, which allow us to capture Bell's non-locality, and the more general notion of quantum contextuality. We leverage the classical theory of simplicial…

Topological invariants such as winding numbers and linking numbers appear as charges of topological solitons in diverse nonlinear physical systems described by a unit vector field defined on two and three dimensional manifolds. While the…

Twisted Alexander invariants of knots are well-defined up to multiplication of units. We get rid of this multiplicative ambiguity via a combinatorial method and define normalized twisted Alexander invariants. We then show that the…

We construct the Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequence (AHSS) for twisted differential generalized cohomology theories. This generalizes to the twisted setting the authors' corresponding earlier construction for differential cohomology…

We construct and study a bicategory of super 2-line bundles over graded Lie groupoids, providing a unified framework for geometric models of twistings of (Real) K-theory. The core of our work is to exhibit a wide range of models from the…

The aim of this note is to establish the correspondence between the twisted localized Pestov identity on the unit tangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold and the Weitzenb\"ock identity for twisted symmetric tensors on the manifold.

A virtual link can be understood as a link in a trivial I-bundle over an orientable compact surface with genus. A twisted virtual link is a link in a trivial I-bundle over a not-necessarily orientable compact surface. A twisted virtual…

This paper concerns twisted signature invariants of knots and 3-manifolds. In the fibered case, we reduce the computation of these invariants to the study of the intersection form and monodromy on the twisted homology of the fiber surface.…

We study the existence of canonical K\"ahler metrics on the projectivisation of strictly Mumford semistable holomorphic vector bundles over a complex curve. We also provide an algebro-geometric characterization of these metrics.

A Dirac bundle is a euclidean bundle over a riemannian manifold $M$ which is a compatible left $C\ell(M)$-module, together with a metric connection also compatible with the Clifford action in a natural way. We prove some vanishing theorems…

We introduce multi-uniformized stacks as a generalization of the Abramovich--Hassett construction of uniformized twisted varieties. We prove an equivalence between the category of multi $\mathbb{Q}$-line bundles satisfying an analogue of…

An elementary result in point-set topology is used, with knowledge of the mod $2$ cohomology of real projective spaces, to establish classical results of Lebesgue and Knaster-Kuratowski-Mazurkiewicz, as well as the topological central point…

The purpose of this article is to present the theory of higher order connections on vector bundles from a viewpoint inspired by projective differential geometry.

We establish the twisted functoriality in nonabelian Hodge theory in positive characteristic. As an application, we obtain a purely algebraic proof of the fact that the pullback of a semistable Higgs bundle with vanishing Chern classes is…

We introduce a notion of equivariant vector bundles on schemes over semirings. We do this by considering the functor of points of a locally free sheaf. We prove that every toric vector bundle on a toric scheme $X$ over an idempotent…

Using the notion of a root datum of a reductive group $G$ we propose a tropical analogue of a principal $G$-bundle on a metric graph. We focus on the case $G=\mathrm{GL}_n$, i.e. the case of vector bundles. Here we give a characterization…

We propose a new class of filtered vector bundles, which is related to variation of (mixed) Hodge structures and give a slight generalization of the Fujita--Zucker--Kawamata semipositivity theorem.
