Various structures in 8-dimensional vector bundles over 8-manifolds

Martin Čadek, Jiří Vanžura (1998)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

The paper is an overview of our results concerning the existence of various structures, especially complex and quaternionic, in 8-dimensional vector bundles over closed connected smooth 8-manifolds.

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.

Line bundles with c 1 ⁢ L 2 = 0

Stefano De Michelis (1991)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

Similarity:

We prove that on a C ⁢ W -complex the obstruction for a line bundle L to be the fractional power of a suitable pullback of the Hopf bundle on a 2-dimensional sphere is the vanishing of the square of the first Chern class of L . On the other hand we show that if one looks at integral powers then further secondary obstructions exist.
