A basis for the space of generalized theta functions of level one for the spin groups, parameterized by the theta characteristics (the even theta characteristcs for the odd spin groups) on a curve, is shown to be projectively flat over the…

In \cite{K} we introduced two variants of higher-order differentials of the period map and showed how to compute them for a variation of Hodge structure that comes from a deformation of a compact K\"ahler manifold. More recently there…

We define a ring of motivic classes of stacks suitable for symmetric powers in finite characteristic. Let $X$ be a smooth projective curve over a field of arbitrary characteristic. We calculate the motivic classes of the moduli stacks of…

We classify all instances of the condition $a_{p}(f) \equiv x \bmod \lambda$ being related to a congruence on the prime $p$, where $a_{p}(f)$ denotes the $p$th Fourier coefficient of a classical normalised cuspidal eigenform $f$ and…

In this work, we study topological properties of surface bundles, with an emphasis on surface bundles with a spin structure. We develop a criterion to decide whether a given manifold bundle has a spin structure and specialize it to surface…

A review of the characterization of principal bundles, through the different properties of the action of a group and its related canonical and translation maps, is presented. The work is divided in three stages: a topological group acting…

Let $\mathbb{M} = \{ M_n \}$ be a good $\mathfrak{q}$-filtration of a finitely generated $R$-module $M$ of dimension $d$, where $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ is a local ring and $\mathfrak{q}$ is an $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideal of $R$. In case…

For the $p$-dimensional filiform Lie algebra ${\mathfrak m}_2(p)$ over a field ${\mathbb F}$ of prime characteristic $p\ge 5$ with nonzero Lie brackets $[e_1,e_i] = e_{i+1}$ for $1<i<p$ and $[e_2,e_i]=e_{i+2}$ for $2<i<p-1$, we show that…

In this paper, we characterize the second bounded characteristic classes of foliated bundles in terms of the non-descendible quasi-morphisms on the universal covering of the structure group. As its application, we study the boundedness of…

For a triple $(G,A,\kappa)$ (where $G$ is a group, $A$ is a $G$-module and $\kappa:G^3\to A$ is a 3-cocycle) and a $G$-module $B$ we introduce a new cohomology theory $_2H^n(G,A,\kappa;B)$ which we call the secondary cohomology. We give a…

Let $G$ be a semisimple complex algebraic group with a simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, and let $\mathcal{M}^0_{G}$ denote the moduli stack of topologically trivial stable $G$-bundles on a smooth projective curve $C$. Fix a theta…

Let $\overline{M}$ be a smooth manifold with boundary $\partial M$ and interior $M$. Consider an affine connection $\nabla$ on $M$ for which the boundary is at infinity. Then $\nabla$ is projectively compact of order $\alpha$ if the…

In this article we study the Gieseker-Maruyama moduli spaces $\mathcal{B}(e,n)$ of stable rank 2 algebraic vector bundles with Chern classes $c_1=e\in\{-1,0\},\ c_2=n\ge1$ on the projective space $\mathbb{P}^3$. We construct two new…

We investigate the geometry of holomorphic vector bundles $E$ over a Riemann surface $C$ together with a section of the endomorphism bundle tensored with $K^{1/2}$ -- a square root of the canonical bundle $K$. These parallel to some extent…

Making use of the extended flux homomorphism on the group of symplectomorphisms of a closed oriented surface of genus at least 2, we introduce new characteristic classes of foliated surface bundles with symplectic, equivalently…

On P3, we show that mathematical instantons in characteristic two are unobstructed. We produce upper bounds for the dimension of the moduli space of stable rank two bundles on P3 in characteristic two. In cases where there is a phenomenon…

Each finite $p$-perfect group $G$ ($p$ a prime) has a universal central $p$-extension. For a perfect group these central extensions come from its {\sl Schur multiplier}. Serre gave a Stiefel-Whitney class approach to analyzing spin covers…

Two new classes of metrizable vector bundles have been presented in the papers [1] and [4]. The Lie algebroid generalized tangent bundle of a dual vector bundle is presented. This Lie algebroid is a new example of metrizable vector bundle.…

In this work we investigate the Swampland Cobordism Conjecture in the context of type IIB string theory geometries with non-trivial duality bundle. Quite remarkably, we find that many non-trivial bordism classes with duality bundles in…

We present two classes of examples of Hopf algebroids associated with noncommutative principal bundles. The first comes from deforming the principal bundle while leaving unchanged the structure Hopf algebra. The second is related to…
