On Verdier's specialization formula for Chern classes.
Let be a smooth projective surface, the canonical divisor, a very ample divisor and the moduli space of rank-two vector bundles, -stable with Chern classes and . We prove that, if there exists such that is numerically equivalent to and if is even, greater or equal to , then there is no Poincaré bundle on . Conversely, if there exists such that the number is odd or if is odd, then there exists a Poincaré bundle on .
Si dimostra che per le varietà a struttura quaternionale generalizzata integrabile, le classi di Pontrjagin sono generate dalle classi di Pontrjagin del fibrato vettoriale fondamentale.
A construction of the noncommutative-geometric counterparts of classical classifying spaces is presented, for general compact matrix quantum structure groups. A quantum analogue of the classical concept of the classifying map is introduced and analyzed. Interrelations with the abstract algebraic theory of quantum characteristic classes are discussed. Various non-equivalent approaches to defining universal characteristic classes are outlined.
A general theory of characteristic classes of quantum principal bundles is presented, incorporating basic ideas of classical Weil theory into the conceptual framework of noncommutative differential geometry. A purely cohomological interpretation of the Weil homomorphism is given, together with a geometrical interpretation via quantum invariant polynomials. A natural spectral sequence is described. Some interesting quantum phenomena appearing in the formalism are discussed.
