Principal bundles on the projective line

We classify principalG-bundles on the projective line over an arbitrary fieldk of characteristic ≠ 2 or 3, whereG is a reductive group. If such a bundle is trivial at ak-rational point, then the structure group can be reduced to a maximal torus.     

Principal parts bundles on projective spaces and quiver representations

We study the principal parts bundles \(\mathcal {P}^{k}\mathcal {O}_{\mathbb {P}^{n}}(d)\) as homogeneous bundles and we describe their associated quiver representations. With this technique we show that if n≥2 and 0≤d<k then there exists an invariant decomposition \(\mathcal {P}^{k}\mathcal {O}_{\mathbb {P}^{n}}(d)=Q_{k,d}\oplus(S^{d}V\otimes \mathcal {O}_{\mathbb {P}^{n}})\) with Q _k,d a stable homogeneous vector bundle. The decomposition properties of such bundles were previously known only for n=1 or k≤d or d<0. Moreover we show that the Taylor truncation maps \(H^{0}\mathcal {P}^{k}\mathcal {O}_{\mathbb {P}^{n}}(d)\to H^{0}\mathcal {P}^{h}\mathcal {O}_{\mathbb {P}^{n}}(d)\), defined for any h≤k and any d, have maximal rank.     

Flat holomorphic connections on principal bundles over a projective manifold

Let be a connected complex linear algebraic group and its unipotent radical. A principal -bundle over a projective manifold will be called polystable if the associated principal -bundle is so. A -bundle over is polystable with vanishing characteristic classes of degrees one and two if and only if admits a flat holomorphic connection with the property that the image in of the monodromy of the connection is contained in a maximal compact subgroup of .

     

Certain relative quadric hypersurfaces in 3-dimensional projective space bundles over a projective curve

We classify the certain type of relative quadric hypersurfaces of 3-dimensional projective space bundles over a projective line or an elliptic curve whose fiber is the direct product of 2 projective lines.     

On syzygies of projective bundles over abelian varieties

Syzygies or $N_p$-property of an ample line bundles on abelian varieties are well known. In this paper, we study defining equations and syzygies among them of projective bundles over abelian varieties. We prove an analogue of Pareschi's theorem (or Lazarsfeld's conjecture) on abelian varieties, extended to projective bundles over an abelian variety.     

Extremal Kähler metrics on projective bundles over a curve

Let M=P(E) be the complex manifold underlying the total space of the projectivization of a holomorphic vector bundle E→Σ over a compact complex curve Σ of genus ?2. Building on ideas of Fujiki (1992) [27], we prove that M admits a Kähler metric of constant scalar curvature if and only if E is polystable. We also address the more general existence problem of extremal Kähler metrics on such bundles and prove that the splitting of E as a direct sum of stable subbundles is necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of extremal Kähler metrics in Kähler classes sufficiently far from the boundary of the Kähler cone. The methods used to prove the above results apply to a wider class of manifolds, called rigid toric bundles over a semisimple base, which are fibrations associated to a principal torus bundle over a product of constant scalar curvature Kähler manifolds with fibres isomorphic to a given toric Kähler variety. We discuss various ramifications of our approach to this class of manifolds.     

On semistable principal bundles over a complex projective manifold,II

Let (X, ω) be a compact connected Kähler manifold of complex dimension d and \({E_G\,\longrightarrow\,X}\) a holomorphic principal G–bundle, where G is a connected reductive linear algebraic group defined over \({\mathbb{C}}\). Let Z(G) denote the center of G. We prove that the following three statements are equivalent:

1. (1)
   There is a parabolic subgroup \({P\,\subset\,G}\) and a holomorphic reduction of structure group \({E_P\,\subset\,E_G}\) to P, such that the corresponding L(P)/Z(G)–bundle

   $E_{L(P)/Z(G)}\,:=\,E_P(L(P)/Z(G))\,\longrightarrow\,X$

   admits a unitary flat connection, where L(P) is the Levi quotient of P.
    
2. (2)
   The adjoint vector bundle ad(E _G ) is numerically flat.
    
3. (3)
   The principal G–bundle E _G is pseudostable, and

   $\int\limits_X c_2({\rm ad}(E_G))\omega^{d-2}\,=\,0.$
    

If X is a complex projective manifold, and ω represents a rational cohomology class, then the third statement is equivalent to the statement that E _G is semistable with c ₂(ad(E _G )) = 0.

     

Stable extendibility of vector bundles over real projective spaces

Let F$\mathbb{F}$ be either the real number field R$\mathbb{R}$ or the complex number field C$\mathbb{C}$ and RPⁿ${\mathbb{RP}}^n$ the real projective space of dimension n. Theorems A and C in Hemmi and Kobayashi (2008) [2] give necessary and sufficient conditions for a given F$\mathbb{F}$-vector bundle over RPⁿ${\mathbb{RP}}^n$ to be stably extendible to RP^m${\mathbb{RP}}^m$ for every m?n$m?n$. In this paper, we simplify the theorems and apply them to the tangent bundle of RPⁿ${\mathbb{RP}}^n$, its complexification, the normal bundle associated to an immersion of RPⁿ${\mathbb{RP}}^n$ in R^n+r${\mathbb{R}}^{n+r}$(r>0)$(r>0)$, and its complexification. Our result for the normal bundle is a generalization of Theorem A in Kobayashi et al. (2000) [8] and that for its complexification is a generalization of Theorem 1 in Kobayashi and Yoshida (2003) [5].     

Vector bundles over iterated suspensions of stunted real projective spaces

Let $X^{k}_{m,n}=\Sigma^{k} (\mathbb{R}\mathbb{P}^{m}/\mathbb{R}\mathbb{P}^{n})$ . In this note we completely determine the values of k, m, n for which the total Stiefel–Whitney class w(ξ)=1 for any vector bundle ξ over  $X^{k}_{m,n}$ .     

Absolutely split real algebraic vector bundles over a real form of projective space

Let M be a projective variety, defined over the field of real numbers, with the property that the base change MR_×C is isomorphic to CPN for some N. A real algebraic vector bundle E over M will be called absolutely split if the vector bundle ER_⊗C over MR_×C splits into a direct sum of line bundles. We classify the isomorphism classes of absolutely split vector bundles over M.     

Syzygies of projective bundles

In this paper we study defining equations and syzygies among them of projective bundles. We prove that for a given p≥0, if a vector bundle on a smooth complex projective variety is sufficiently ample, then the embedding given by the tautological line bundle satisfies property N_p.     

Stable geometric dimension of vector bundles over even-dimensional real projective spaces

In 1981, Davis, Gitler, and Mahowald determined the geometric dimension of stable vector bundles of order over if is even and sufficiently large and . In this paper, we use the Bendersky-Davis computation of to show that the 1981 result extends to all (still provided that is sufficiently large). If , the result is often different due to anomalies in the formula for when , but we also determine the stable geometric dimension in these cases.
