Abstract: | We study certain natural differential forms and their equivariant extensions on the space of connections. These forms are defined using the family local index theorem. When the
base manifold is symplectic, they define a family of symplectic forms on the space of connections. We will explain their relationships
with the Einstein metric and the stability of vector bundles. These forms also determine primary and secondary characteristic
forms (and their higher level generalizations).
