It is well known that the moduli space of flat connections on a trivial principal bundle MxG, where G is a connected Lie group, is isomorphic to the representation variety Hom(\pi_1(M), G)/G. For a tiling T, viewed as a marked copy of R^d,…
We study the quantization of spaces whose K-theory in the classical limit is the ring of dual numbers $\mathbb{Z}[t]/(t^2)$. For a compact Hausdorff space we recall necessary and sufficient conditions for this to hold. For a compact quantum…
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…
In this paper we define 2-vector bundles as suitable bundles of 2-vector spaces over a base space, and compare the resulting 2-K-theory with the algebraic K-theory spectrum K(V) of the 2-category of 2-vector spaces, as well as the algebraic…
Surface bundles arising from periodic mapping classes may sometimes have non-isomorphic, but profinitely isomorphic fundamental groups. Pairs of this kind have been discovered by Hempel. This paper exhibits examples of nontrivial Hempel…
We characterize those unipotent representations of the fundamental group $\pi_1(X,x)$ of a compact Kaehler manifold $X$, which correspond to a Higgs bundle whose underlying Higgs field is equal to zero. The characterization is parallel to…
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…
We define the equivariant degree and local degree of a proper $G$-equivariant map between smooth $G$-manifolds when $G$ is a compact Lie group and prove a local to global result. We show the local degree can be used to compute the…
The point of this paper is to prove the conjecture that virtual 2-vector bundles are classified by K(ku), the algebraic K-theory of topological K-theory. Hence, by the work of Ausoni and the fourth author, virtual 2-vector bundles give us a…
We give a classification of rank $r$ torus equivariant vector bundles $\mathcal{E}$ on a toric scheme $\mathfrak{X}$ over a discrete valuation ring $\mathcal{O}$, in terms of graded piecewise linear maps $\Phi$ from the fan of…
We give a Klyachko-type classification of topological/smooth/holomorphic $(\mathbb{C}^{*})^n$-equivariant vector bundles that are equivariantly trivial over invariant affine charts. This generalizes Klyachko's classification of toric vector…
Let $X$ be the wonderful compactification of a complex symmetric space $G/H$ of minimal rank. For a point $x\,\in\, G$, denote by $Z$ be the closure of $BxH/H$ in $X$, where $B$ is a Borel subgroup of $G$. The universal cover of $G$ is…
In this paper we define complex equivariant K-theory for actions of Lie groupoids using finite-dimensional vector bundles. For a Bredon-compatible Lie groupoid, this defines a periodic cohomology theory on the category of finite equivariant…
We investigate relative holomorphic connections on a principal bundle over a family of compact complex manifolds. A sufficient condition is given for the existence of a relative holomorphic connection on a holomorphic principal bundle over…
We show that the category of affine bundles over a smooth manifold M is equivalent to the category of affine spaces modelled on projective finitely generated C^\infty(M)-modules. Using this equivalence of categories, we are able to give an…
In this article we consider the continuity of the eigenvalues of the connection Laplacian of $G$-connections on vector bundles over Riemannian manifolds. To show it, we introduce the notion of the asymptotically $G$-equivariant measured…
We define functorial isomorphisms of parallel transport along \'etale paths for a class of principal $G$-bundles on a $p$-adic curve. Here $G$ is a connected reductive algebraic group of finite presentation and the considered principal…
Graded vector bundles over a given $\mathbb{Z}$-graded manifold can be defined in three different ways: certain sheaves of graded modules over the structure sheaf of the base graded manifold, finitely generated projective graded modules…
We prove that the only rational homogeneous varieties with Picard number 1 of the exceptional algebraic groups admitting irreducible equivariant Ulrich vector bundles are the Cayley plane $E_6/P_1$ and the $E_7$-adjoint variety $E_7/P_1$.…
Let $G$ be a connected reductive algebraic group. Let $\mathcal{E}\rightarrow \mathcal{B}$ be a principal $G\times G$-bundle and $X$ be a regular compactification of $G$. We describe the Grothendieck ring of the associated fibre bundle…
