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

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. ...

Symmetric theta divisors of Klein surfaces

Christian Okonek, Andrei Teleman (2012)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

This is a slightly expanded version of the talk given by the first author at the conference Instantons in complex geometry, at the Steklov Institute in Moscow. The purpose of this talk was to explain the algebraic results of our paper Abelian Yang-Mills theory on Real tori and Theta divisors of Klein surfaces. In this paper we compute determinant index bundles of certain families of Real Dirac type operators on Klein surfaces as elements in the corresponding Grothendieck group of Real...

Determinant bundle over the universal moduli space of vector bundles over the Teichmüller space

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Similarity:

The moduli space of stable vector bundles over a moving curve is constructed, and on this a generalized Weil-Petersson form is constructed. Using the local Riemann-Roch formula of Bismut-Gillet-Soulé it is shown that the generalized Weil-Petersson form is the curvature of the determinant line bundle, equipped with the Quillen metric, for a vector bundle on the fiber product of the universal moduli space with the universal curve.
