Branched projective structures, branched SO(3,C)-opers and logarithmic connections on jet bundle

We study the branched holomorphic projective structures on a compact Riemann surface $X$ with a fixed branching divisor $S\, =\, \sum_{i=1}^d x_i$, where $x_i \,\in\, X$ are distinct points. After defining branched ${\rm SO}(3,{\mathbb C})$--opers, we show that the branched holomorphic projective structures on $X$ are in a natural bijection with the branched ${\rm SO}(3,{\mathbb C})$--opers singular at $S$. It is deduced that the branched holomorphic projective structures on $X$ are also identified with a subset of the space of all logarithmic connections on $J^2((TX)\otimes {\mathcal O}_X(S))$ singular over $S$, satisfying certain natural geometric conditions.

A constructive method for decomposing real representations

A constructive method for decomposing finite dimensional representations of semisimple real Lie algebras is developed. The method is illustrated by an example. We also discuss an implementation of the algorithm in the language of the computer algebra system {\sf GAP}4.

Projective structures on Riemann surface and natural differential operators

We investigate the holomorphic differential operators on a Riemann surface $M$. This is done by endowing $M$ with a projective structure. Let $\mathcal L$ be a theta characteristic on $M$. We explicitly describe the jet bundle $J^k(E\otimes {\mathcal L}^{\otimes n})$, where $E$ is a holomorphic vector bundle on $M$ equipped with a holomorphic connection, for all $k$ and $n$. This provides a description of holomorphic differential operators from $E\otimes {\mathcal L}^{\otimes n}$ to another holomorphic vector bundle $F$ using the natural isomorphism $\text{Diff}^k(E\otimes {\mathcal L}^{\otimes n}, F)= F\otimes (J^k(E\otimes {\mathcal L}^{\otimes n}))^*$.

Automorphism group of a moduli space of framed bundles over a curve

Let $X$ be a smooth complex projective curve, and let $x\in X$ be a point. We compute the automorphism group of the moduli space of framed vector bundles on $X$ of rank $r \geq 2$ with a framing over $x$. It is shown that this automorphism group is generated by the following three: (1) pullbacks using automorphisms of the curve $X$ that fix the marked point $x$, (2) tensorization with certain line bundles over $X$ and (3) the action of $\operatorname{PGL}_r(\mathbb{C})$ through composition with the framing.

Generalized B-Opers

Opers were introduced by Beilinson-Drinfeld [arXiv:math.AG/0501398]. In [J. Math. Pures Appl. 82 (2003), 1-42] a higher rank analog was considered, where the successive quotients of the oper filtration are allowed to have higher rank. We dedicate this paper to introducing and studying generalized $B$-opers (where "$B$" stands for "bilinear"), obtained by endowing the underlying vector bundle with a bilinear form which is compatible with both the filtration and the connection. In particular, we study the structure of these $B$-opers, by considering the relationship of these structures with jet bundles and with geometric structures on a Riemann surface.

Abel-Jacobi map and curvature of the pulled back metric

Let $X$ be a compact connected Riemann surface of genus at least two. The Abel-Jacobi map $φ: {\rm Sym}^d(X) \rightarrow {\rm Pic}^d(X)$ is an embedding if $d$ is less than the gonality of $X$. We investigate the curvature of the pull-back, by $φ$, of the flat metric on ${\rm Pic}^d(X)$. In particular, we show that when $d=1$, the curvature is strictly negative everywhere if $X$ is not hyperelliptic, and when $X$ is hyperelliptic, the curvature is nonpositive with vanishing exactly on the points of $X$ fixed by the hyperelliptic involution.

Deformation theory of holomorphic Cartan geometries

Introducing the deformation theory of holomorphic Cartan geometries, we compute infinitesimal automorphisms and infinitesimal deformations. We also prove the existence of a semi-universal deformation of a holomorphic Cartan geometry.

Fujiki class $\mathcal C$ and holomorphic geometric structures

For compact complex manifolds with vanishing first Chern class that are compact torus principal bundles over Kähler manifolds, we prove that all holomorphic geometric structures on them, of affine type, are locally homogeneous. For a compact simply connected complex manifold in Fujiki class $\mathcal C$, whose dimension is strictly larger than the algebraic dimension, we prove that it does not admit any holomorphic rigid geometric structure, and also it does not admit any holomorphic Cartan geometry of algebraic type. We prove that compact complex simply connected manifolds in Fujiki class $\mathcal {C}$ and with vanishing first Chern class do not admit any holomorphic Cartan geometry of algebraic type.

Fourier-Mukai transformation and logarithmic Higgs bundles on punctual Hilbert schemes

Given a vector bundle $E$ on a smooth projective curve or surface $X$ carrying the structure of a $V$-twisted Hitchin pair for some vector bundle $V$, we observe that the associated tautological bundle $E^{[n]}$ on the punctual Hilbert scheme of points $X^{[n]}$ has an induced structure of a $((V^\vee)^{[n]})^\vee$-twisted Hitchin pair, where $(V^\vee)^{[n]}$ is a vector bundle on $X^{[n]}$ constructed using the dual $V^\vee$ of $V$. In particular, a Higgs bundle on $X$ induces a logarithmic Higgs bundle on the Hilbert scheme $X^{[n]}$. We then show that the known results on stability of tautological bundles and reconstruction from tautological bundles generalize to tautological Hitchin pairs.

Rational parallelism on complex manifolds

A Theorem of Wang in [Wa] implies that any holomorphic parallelism on a compact complex manifold M is flat with respect to some complex Lie algebra structure whose dimension coincides with that of M. We study here rational parallelisms on complex manifolds. We exhibit rational parallelisms on compact complex manifolds which are not flat with respect to any complex Lie algebra structure.

Cartan geometries on complex manifolds of algebraic dimension zero

We show that compact complex manifolds of algebraic dimension zero bearing a holomorphic Cartan geometry of algebraic type have infinite fundamental group. This generalizes the main Theorem in [DM] where the same result was proved for the special cases of holomorphic affine connections and holomorphic conformal structures.

Connections on central extensions, lifting gerbes, and finite-dimensional obstruction vanishing

Given a central extension of Lie groups, we study the classification problem of lifting the structure group together with a given connection. For reductive structure groups we introduce a new connective structure on the lifting gerbe associated to this problem. Our main result classifies all connections on the central extension of a given principal bundle. In particular, we find that admissible connections are in one-to-one correspondence with parallel trivializations of the lifting gerbe. Moreover, we prove a vanishing result for Neeb's obstruction classes for finite-dimensional Lie groups.

On the relative Connections

We investigate relative connections on a sheaf of modules. A sufficient condition is given for the existence of a relative holomorphic connection on a holomorphic vector bundle over a complex analytic family. We show that the relative Chern classes of a holomorphic vector bundle admitting relative holomorphic connection vanish, if each of the fiber of the complex analytic family is compact and Kähler.

Parabolic vector bundles on Klein surfaces

Given a discrete subgroup $Γ$ of finite co-volume of $\mathrm{PGL}(2,\mathbb{R})$, we define and study parabolic vector bundles on the quotient $Σ$ of the (extended) hyperbolic plane by $Γ$. If $Γ$ contains an orientation-reversing isometry, then the above is equivalent to studying real and quaternionic parabolic vector bundles on the orientation cover of $Σ$. We then prove that isomorphism classes of polystable real and quaternionic parabolic vector bundles are in bijective correspondence with equivalence classes of real and quaternionic unitary representations of $Γ$. Similar results are obtained for compact-type real parabolic vector bundles over Klein surfaces.
