We discuss algebraic vector bundles on smooth k-schemes X contractible from the standpoint of A^1-homotopy theory; when k = C, the smooth manifolds X(C) are contractible as topological spaces. The integral algebraic K-theory and integral…

We express the diagonals of projective, Grassmann and, more generally, flag bundles of type (A) using the zero schemes of some vector bundle sections, and do the same for their single point subschemes. We discuss diagonal and point…

In the holomorphic or algebraic setting we consider a vector bundle E on a smooth subvariety X in a smooth variety Y over a field of characteristic zero. Assuming E extends to the l-th neighborhood of X in Y, we study cohomological…

In this paper, we introduce the notion of the diagonal property and the weak point property for an ind-variety. We prove that the ind-varieties of higher rank divisors of integral slopes on a smooth projective curve have the weak point…

The classification of algebraic vector bundles of rank 2 over smooth affine fourfolds is a notoriously difficult problem. Isomorphism classes of such vector bundles are not uniquely determined by their Chern classes, in contrast to the…

Let $\pi\,:\, X \,\longrightarrow\, Y$ be a finite morphism of smooth projective varieties defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We study the necessary and sufficient criteria for $\pi$ such that there exists a…

We study vector bundles on flag varieties over an algebraically closed field $k$. In the first part, we suppose $G=G_k(d,n)$ $(2\le d\leq n-d)$ to be the Grassmannian manifold parameterizing linear subspaces of dimension $d$ in $k^n$, where…

We consider when a smooth vector bundle endowed with a connection possesses non-trivial, local parallel sections. This is accomplished by means of a derived flag of subsets of the bundle. The procedure is algebraic and rests upon the…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety defined over an algebraically closed field, and let $L$ be an ample line bundle over $X$. We prove that for any smooth hypersurface $D$ on $X$ in the complete linear system $| L^{\otimes d}|$, the…

Let $G$ be a complex connected reductive algebraic group that acts on a smooth complex algebraic variety $X$, and let $E$ be a $G$-equivariant algebraic vector bundle over $X$. A section of $E$ is regular if it is transversal to the zero…

Let X be a smooth complete complex toric variety such that the boundary is a simple normal crossing divisor, and let E be a holomorphic vector bundle on X. We prove that E admits an equivariant structure if and only if E admits a…

Two related constructions are studied: (1) The diagonal complex $\mathcal{D}$ and its barycentric subdivision $\mathcal{BD}$ related to a \textit{punctured} oriented surface $F$ equipped with a number of labeled marked points. (2) The…

Let $\Cal E$ be a very ample vector bundle of rank two on a smooth complex projective threefold $X$. An inequality about the third Segre class of $\Cal E$ is provided when $K_X+\det \Cal E$ is nef but not big, and when a suitable positive…

The aim of this paper is to study the cohomology theory of monoid schemes in general and apply it to vector and line bundles. We will prove that over separated monoid schemes, any vector bundle is a coproduct of line bundles and then go on…

For a smooth projective variety $X$, we consider when the diagonal $\Delta_X$ is nef as a cycle on $X\times X$. In particular, we give a classification of complete intersections and smooth del Pezzo varieties where the diagonal is nef. We…

We give the first examples of nef line bundles on smooth projective varieties over finite fields which are not semi-ample. More concretely, we find smooth curves on smooth projective surfaces over finite fields such that the normal bundle…

The main goal of this article is to construct some geometric invariants for the topology of the set $\mathcal{F}$ of flat connections on a principal $G$-bundle $P\,\longrightarrow\, M$. Although the characteristic classes of principal…

We give a cohomological classification of vector bundles of rank $2$ on a smooth affine threefold over an algebraically closed field having characteristic unequal to $2$. As a consequence we deduce that cancellation holds for rank $2$…
