Stability and deformations of generalised Picard sheaves

Let $C$ be a smooth irreducible complex projective curve of genus $g \geq 2$ and $M$ the moduli space of stable vector bundles on $C$ of rank $n$ and degree $d$ with $\gcd(n,d)=1$. A generalised Picard sheaf is the direct image on $M$ of the tensor product of a universal bundle on $M\times C$ by the pullback of a vector bundle $E_0$ on $C$. In this paper, we investigate the stability of generalised Picard sheaves and, in the case where these are locally free, their deformations. When $g\ge3$, $n\ge2$ (with some additional restrictions for $g=3,4$) and the rank and degree of $E_0$ are coprime, this leads to the construction of a fine moduli space for deformations of Picard bundles.

On computing joint invariants of vector fields

A constructive version of the Frobenius integrability theorem -- that can be programmed effectively -- is given. This is used in computing invariants of groups of low ranks and recover examples from a recent paper of Boyko, Patera and Popoyvich \cite{BPP}.

Equivariant vector bundles and logarithmic connections on toric varieties

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 logarithmic connection singular over D. More precisely, we show that an equivariant vector bundle on X has a tautological integrable logarithmic connection singular over D. This is used in computing the Chern classes of the equivariant vector bundles on X. We also prove a version of the result for holomorphic vector bundles on log parallelizable G-pairs (X,D), where G is a simply connected complex affine algebraic group.

A criterion for homogeneous principal bundles

We consider principal bundles over homogeneous spaces G/P, where P is a parabolic subgroup of a semisimple and simply connected complex linear algebraic group G. We prove that a holomorphic principal H--bundle, where H is a complex reductive group, is homogeneous if the adjoint vector bundle ad(E) is homogeneous. We also show that E is homogeneous if its associated vector bundle for any finite dimensional faithful H--module is homogeneous.

Stability of projective Poincare and Picard bundles

Let $X$ be an irreducible smooth projective curve of genus $g\ge3$ defined over the complex numbers and let ${\mathcal M}_ξ$ denote the moduli space of stable vector bundles on $X$ of rank $n$ and determinant $ξ$, where $ξ$ is a fixed line bundle of degree $d$. If $n$ and $d$ have a common divisor, there is no universal vector bundle on $X\times {\mathcal M}_ξ$. We prove that there is a projective bundle on $X\times {\mathcal M}_ξ$ with the property that its restriction to $X\times\{E\}$ is isomorphic to $P(E)$ for all $E\in\mathcal{M}_ξ$ and that this bundle (called the projective Poincaré bundle) is stable with respect to any polarization; moreover its restriction to $\{x\}\times\mathcal{M}_ξ$ is also stable for any $x\in X$. We prove also stability results for bundles induced from the projective Poincaré bundle by homomorphisms $\text{PGL}(n)\to H$ for any reductive $H$. We show further that there is a projective Picard bundle on a certain open subset $\mathcal{M}'$ of $\mathcal{M}_ξ$ for any $d>n(g-1)$ and that this bundle is also stable. We obtain new results on the stability of the Picard bundle even when $n$ and $d$ are coprime.

A Babylonian tower theorem for principal bundles over projective spaces

We generalise the variant of the Babylonian tower theorem for vector bundles on projective spaces proved by I. Coanda and G. Trautmann (2006) to the case of principal $G$-bundles over projective spaces, where $G$ is a linear algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field. In course of the proofs some new insight into the structure of such principal $G$-bundles is obtained.

Universal Families on moduli spaces of principal bundles on curves

Let $H$ be a connected semisimple linear algebraic group defined over $\mathbb C$ and $X$ a compact connected Riemann surface of genus at least three. Let ${\mathcal M}'_X(H)$ be the moduli space parametrising all topologically trivial stable principal $H$-bundles over $X$ whose automorphism group coincides with the centre of $H$. It is a Zariski open dense subset of the moduli space of stable principal $H$-bundles. We prove that there is a universal principal $H$-bundle over $X\times {\mathcal M}'_X(H)$ if and only if $H$ is an adjoint group (that is, the centre of $H$ is trivial).

Deformations of the generalised Picard bundle

Let X be a non-singular algebraic curve of genus at least 3 and let M denote the moduli space of stable vector bundles of rank n and fixed determinant of degree d with n and d coprime. For any semistable bundle E over X, we can pull E back to XxM, tensor with a universal bundle and take the direct image W(E) on M. If the degree of E is sufficiently large, this direct image is locally free and we call it a generalised Picard bundle. In this paper we prove an inversion formula allowing us to recover E from W(E) and compute the space of infinitesimal deformations of W(E). We also identify a family of deformations which is locally complete and frequently globally complete as well. The paper as a whole is a generalisation of results of Kempf and Mukai on Picard bundles over the Jacobian of X.

Deformations of the Picard Bundle

Let X be a nonsingular projective algebraic curve of genus g\ge3. We consider the moduli space M of stable bundles of fixed determinant with rank n and degree d coprime and d>n(2g-2). There is a universal bundle on XxM and we consider the direct image of this bundle on M. With the given restriction on d, this is a bundle W called the Picard bundle. Our main object in this paper is to compute the infinitesimal deformations of W. We show also that W possesses a moduli space and that the connected component of this moduli space containing W is isomorphic as a polarised variety to the Jacobian of X.

Canonical Generators for the Cohomology of Moduli of Parabolic Bundles on Curves

We determine generators of the rational cohomology algebras of moduli spaces of parabolic vector bundles on a curve, under some `primality' conditions on the parabolic datum. These generators are canonical in a precise sense. Our results are new even for usual vector bundles (i.e., vector bundles without parabolic structure) whose rank is greater than 2 and is coprime to the degree; in this case, they are generalizations of a theorem of Newstead on the moduli of vector bundles of rank 2 and odd degree.
