Minimal CW complex detecting all powers of euler class
Let $n \in \mathbb{Z}_{>0}$. It is not hard to prove that there exists a CW complex $X$ with a single cell in each dimension 0, $2n$, $4n$, $6n$, $\dots$, and no further cells, and a $2n$-...

Trivialising homogeneous vector bundles over a homogeneous space
Take the sphere $S^2$ with the standard indexing of its line bundles $E_k$, for $k$ an integer. Is it true that $E_{k} \oplus E_{-k}$ is a trivial vector bundle? If so, what is the easiest way to see ...

Family of vector bundles over a relative A^1
Let $A=\mathbb{C}[[s]]$, I am looking for an example of a non-trivial vector bundle (or $\operatorname{SL}_n$-torsor) on $\mathbb{P}^{1}_{A[t,t^{-1}]}$ that is trivial over $\mathbb{P}^{1}_{\mathbb{C}...

Real structure of dual vector bundle
Suppose $V$ is a holomorphic vector bundle on a Riemann surface X which is endowed with an anti-holomorphic involution $\sigma_X: X\longrightarrow X$. $V$ is said to have real structure if $\exists$ ...

Is every submanifold the zero of a sufficiently regular section of a vector bundle on some neighborhood of the submanifold?
Let $M$ be an $m$-manifold and $N\subseteq M$ an (embedded) $n$-submanifold $(0<n<m)$. Everything in this question is assumed smooth if relevant and not stated explicitly otherwise.
Let $\pi:E\...

Isomorphism between Moduli spaces of vector bundles with fixed determinants, over a curve
Let C be a smooth projective curve, and let $L_1$ and $L_2$ be two line bundles with degree $d_1$ and $d_2$ respectively, where $gcd(r,d_i)=1$ for $i=1,2$. Suppose $M(r, L_1)$ and $M(r, L_2)$ are two ...

Notion of equivalence of vector bundles
I have a question:
Let $V$ be a holomorphic vector bundle of rank $n$ on a Riemann surface $X$ given by cocycles $\Phi_{ij}$ for a trivializing cover $U_i$ which on $U_i\cap U_j\cap U_k$ satisfy the ...

Is there any Galois correspondence about fiber bundle (vector bundle)?
I have learned Galois correspondence about universal covering space over a topological manifold $M$. Since a covering space over $M$ can be viewed as a fiber space over $M$ with discrete fibers, and a ...

An exact sequence of jet space associated to a vector bundle
Suppose $L$ be a line bundle over Riemann surface $X$. Then show that $ 0 \longrightarrow J^2(L) \longrightarrow J^1(J^1(L)) \longrightarrow L\otimes K_X \longrightarrow 0 ,$ where $J^k(L)$ is the $k$-...

Explicit proof that tangent bundle of the 2-sphere, TS^2, is parallelizable
Let $T S^2$ denote the tangent bundle of the 2-sphere $S^2 = \{x \in \mathbb{R}^3 : \|x\|=1\}$. In this paper, Fodor proves that $T S^2$ is parallelizable, using machinery that I do not understand ---...

Pullbacks of Lie algebroids 2.0
Do Lie algebroids pull back (along submersions)?
Regarding the linked question, I am interested in pulling back only the anchor map, ignoring the bracket. Formally, let
$p_E:E\rightarrow M$ and $p_F:...
