For an elliptic surface $q:Y \to \Sigma$, with prescribed singular fibres, Stefan Bauer proved directly via algebraic geometry that the stable bundles over $Y$, whose chern classes are pull backs from $\Sigma$, correspond to the stable…

We introduce three non-compact moduli stacks parametrizing noncommutative deformations of Hirzebruch surfaces; the first is the moduli stack of locally free sheaf bimodules of rank 2, which appears in the definition of noncommutative…

The existence of topological invariants analogous to Chern/Pontryagin classes for a standard $SO(D)$ or $SU(N)$ connection, but constructed out of the torsion tensor, is discussed. These invariants exhibit many of the features of the…

Given a moduli problem posed using Geometric Invariant Theory, one can use Non-Reductive Geometric Invariant Theory to quotient unstable HKKN strata and construct 'moduli spaces of unstable objects', extending the usual moduli…

We clarify the undecided case $c_2 = 3$ of a theorem of Ein, Hartshorne and Vogelaar [Math. Ann. 259 (1982), 541--569] about the restriction of a stable rank 3 vector bundle with $c_1 = 0$ on the projective 3-space to a general plane. It…

We consider the problem of constructing matrices of linear forms of constant rank by focusing on the associated vector bundles on projective spaces. Important examples are given by the classical Steiner bundles, as well as some special…

Using a quasi-linear version of Hodge theory, holomorphic vector bundles in a neighbourhood of a given polystable bundle on a compact Kaehler manifold are shown to be (poly)stable if and only if their corresponding classes are (poly)stable…

We study moduli stabilization in 4D effective field theories with Sp(4,$\mathbb{Z}$) self-duality inspired by heterotic orbifold compactifications with Wilson lines. The target-space duality group of these theories is enhanced from…

{\it We first give a geometrical description of the action of the parity operator ($\hat{P}$) on non relativistic spin ${{1}\over{2}}$ Pauli spinors in terms of bundle theory. The relevant bundle, $SU(2)\odot \Z_2\to O(3)$, is a non trivial…

The complex physics of self-assembly in colloidal crystals on deformable interfaces and surfaces poses interesting possibilities for the designability and synthesis of next-generation metamaterials. The goal of this article is to…

Given a holomorphic vector bundle $E$ on the twistor space $\mathrm{Tw}(M)$ of a simple hyperk\"ahler manifold $M$, we view it as a family of bundles $\left\{E_I\right\}$ on the fibres $\pi^{-1}(I)$ of the twistor projection $\pi :…

We prove that group homology of the diffeomorphism group of $\#^g S^n \times S^n$ as a discrete group is independent of $g$ in a range, provided that $n>2$. This answers the high dimensional version of a question posed by Morita about…
