Logarithmic and $b$-tangent bundles provide a versatile framework for addressing singularities in geometry. Introduced by Deligne and Melrose, these modified bundles resolve singularities by reframing singular vector fields as well-behaved…
We consider the moduli space of flat G-bundles over the twodimensional torus, where G is a real, compact, simple Lie group which is not simply connected. We show that the connected components that describe topologically non-trivial bundles…
A loop is a rather general algebraic structure that has an identity element and division, but is not necessarily associative. Smooth loops are a direct generalization of Lie groups. A key example of a non-Lie smooth loop is the loop of unit…
Let $\Sigma$ be an orientbale closed surface and let $\Sigma'$ be a nonorientable closed surface. In the paper, we show that for any nontrivial orientable $S^2$ fiber bundles $X= \Sigma \ltimes S^2$ and $X' = \Sigma' \ltimes S^2$, there are…
A generalized notion of a Lie algebroid is presented. Using this, the Lie algebroid generalized tangent bundle is obtained. A new point of view over (linear) connections theory on a fiber bundle is presented. These connections are…
The purpose of this paper is to translate positivity properties of the tangent bundle (and the anti-canonical bundle) of an algebraic manifold into existence and movability properties of rational curves and to investigate the impact on the…
We prove that the Teichm\"uller space of the Hirsch foliation (a minimal foliation of a closed 3-manifold by non-compact hyperbolic surfaces) is homeomorphic to the space of closed curves in the plane. This allows us to show that that the…
We study the geometry of projective manifolds whose tangent bundles are nef on sufficiently general curves (i.e. the tangent bundle is generically nef) and show that manifolds whose anticanonical bundles are semi-ample have this property.…
A new class of compact K\"ahler manifolds, called special, is defined, which are the ones having no surjective meromorphic map to an orbifold of general type. The special manifolds are in many respect higher-dimensional generalisations of…
This work is the first in a series of papers that, among other things, extends the formalism of diolic differential calculus, wherein a new context for obtaining differential calculus in vector bundles was established. Here we provide a…
On compact K\"{a}hler manifolds, we classify regular holomorphic foliations of codimension 1 whose canonical bundle is numerically trivial.
For the associative algebra $A(\mathfrak g)$ of an infinite-dimensional Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$, we introduce twisted fiber bundles over arbitrary compact topological spaces. Fibers of such bundles are given by elements of algebraic…
We consider circle bundles over compact three-manifolds with symplectic total spaces. We show that the base of such a space must be irreducible or the product of the two-sphere with the circle. We then deduce that such a bundle admits a…
The standard techniques of variational calculus are geometrically stated in the ambient of fiber bundles endowed with a (pre)multisymplectic structure. Then, for the corresponding variational equations, conserved quantities (or, what is…
Let $M=P(E)$ be the complex manifold underlying the total space of the projectivization of a holomorphic vector bundle $E \to \Sigma$ over a compact complex curve $\Sigma$ of genus $\ge 2$. Building on ideas of Fujiki, we prove that $M$…
We study the Albanese image of a compact K\"ahler manifold whose geometric genus is one. We prove that if the Albanese map is not surjective, then the manifold maps surjectively onto an ample divisor in some abelian variety, and in many…
These notes are based on three lectures given at the 2013 CIME/CIRM summer school. The purpose of this series of lectures is to introduce the notion of a toric fibration and to give its geometrical and combinatorial characterizations.…
Let $M$ be a singular hyperkaehler variety, obtained as a moduli space of stable holomorphic bundles on a compact hyperkaehler manifold (alg-geom/9307008). Consider $M$ as a complex variety in one of the complex structures induced by the…
We compute the cohomology of the right generalised projective Stiefel manifolds and use it to find bounds on the rank of the complementary bundle for certain vector bundles. Further the cohomology computations are also used to find bounds…
Let $(M^n, g)$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold with nonpositive bisectional curvature. We show that a finite cover is biholomorphic and isometric to a flat torus bundle over a compact K\"ahler manifold $N^k$ with $c_1 < 0$. This confirms a…
