Let X and X' be compact Riemann surfaces of genus at least 3, and let G and G' be nonabelian reductive complex groups. If one component M_G^d(X) of the moduli space for semistable principal G-bundles over X is isomorphic to another…

By virtue of the well-known theorem, a structure Lie group G of a principal bundle P is reducible to its closed subgroup H iff there exists a global section of the quotient bundle P/H. In gauge theory, such sections are treated as classical…

We study quotients of multi-graded bundles, including double vector bundles. Among other things, we show that any such quotient fits into a tower of affine bundles. Applications of the theory include a construction of normal bundles for…

We give a concrete description of the category of G-equivariant vector bundles on certain affine G-varieties (where G is a reductive linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0) in terms of linear algebra…

The index theorem of Euler-Poincar\'e characteristic of manifold with boundary is given by making use of the general decomposition theory of spin connection. We shows the sum of the total index of a vector field $\phi $ and half the total…

In this study, we generalize double tangent bundles to double jet bundles. We present a secondary vector bundle structure on a 1-jet of a vector bundle. We show that 1-jet of a vector bundle carries two vector bundle structures, namely…

Seiberg-Witten maps are a well-established method to locally construct noncommutative gauge theories starting from commutative gauge theories. We revisit and classify the ambiguities and the freedom in the definition. Geometrically,…

We show that the Virasoro conjecture in Gromov--Witten theory holds for the the total space of a toric bundle $E \to B$ if and only if it holds for the base $B$. The main steps are: (i) we establish a localization formula that expresses…

In this note, we consider a Lie group G acting on a manifold M. We prove that the category of bundles with connection on the differential quotient stack is equivalent to the category of G-equivariant bundles on M with G-invariant…

We study the geometry of the tangent bundle equipped with a two-parameter family of Riemannian metrics. After deriving the expression of the Levi-Civita connection, we compute the Riemann curvature tensor and the sectional, Ricci and scalar…

Given a vector bundle $E$ on an irreducible projective variety $X$ we give a necessary and sufficient criterion for $E$ to be a direct image of a line bundle under an \'etale morphism. The criterion in question is the existence of a Cartan…

We examine a moduli problem for real and quaternionic vector bundles on a smooth complex projective curve with a fixed real structure, and we give a gauge-theoretic construction of moduli spaces for semi-stable such bundles with fixed…

We describe a strategy for the construction of finitely generated $G$-equivariant $\mathbb{Z}$-graded modules $M$ over the exterior algebra for a finite group $G$. By an equivariant version of the BGG correspondence, $M$ defines an object…

We apply the equivariance --> families principle to a geometric family of Clifford module bundles with an action of a compact Lie group G to prove an equivariant version of Bismut's families index theorem on the differential Borel quotient…

Twisted ind-Grassmannians are ind-varieties $\GG$ obtained as direct limits of Grassmannians $G(r_m,V^{r_m})$, for $m\in\ZZ_{>0}$, under embeddings $\phi_m:G(r_m,V^{r_m})\to G(r_{m+1}, V^{r_{m+1}})$ of degree greater than one. It has been…
