On the index of nonlocal elliptic operators for compact Lie groups

Anton Savin (2011)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

We consider a class of nonlocal operators associated with a compact Lie group G acting on a smooth manifold. A notion of symbol of such operators is introduced and an index formula for elliptic elements is obtained. The symbol in this situation is an element of a noncommutative algebra (crossed product by G) and to obtain an index formula, we define the Chern character for this algebra in the framework of noncommutative geometry.

Elliptic sufaces with a nef line bundle of genus two.

Antonio Lanteri, Cristina Turrini (1998)

Collectanea Mathematica

Similarity:

Complex projective elliptic surfaces endowed with a numerically effective line bundle of arithmetic genus two are studied and partially classified. A key role is played by elliptic quasi-bundles, where some ideas developed by Serrano in order to study ample line bundles apply to this more general situation.

On S(2) and S(2) · S(1) structures in 8-dimensional vector bundles.

Martin Cadek, Jirí Vanzura (1997)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

Similarity:

Let ξ be an oriented 8-dimensional vector bundle. We prove that the structure group SO(8) of ξ can be reduced to S(2) or S(2) · S(1) if and only if the vector bundle associated to ξ via a certain outer automorphism of the group Spin(8) has 3 linearly independent sections or contains a 3-dimensional subbundle. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of an S(2)- structure in ξ over a closed connected spin manifold of dimension 8 are also given in terms of characteristic classes. ...

On the existence of 2-fields in 8-dimensional vector bundles over 8-complexes

Martin Čadek, Jiří Vanžura (1995)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

Necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of two linearly independent sections in an 8-dimensional spin vector bundle over a CW-complex of the same dimension are given in terms of characteristic classes and a certain secondary cohomology operation. In some cases this operation is computed.
