Vector Bundles on Projective Space
Vector Bundles on Projective Space Takumi Murayama December 1, 2013 1 Preliminaries on vector bundles Let X be a (quasi-projective) variety over k. We follow [Sha13, Chap. 6, x1.2]. Definition. A family of vector spaces over X is a morphism of varieties π : E ! X −1 such that for each x 2 X, the fiber Ex := π (x) is isomorphic to a vector space r 0 0 Ak(x).A morphism of a family of vector spaces π : E ! X and π : E ! X is a morphism f : E ! E0 such that the following diagram commutes: f E E0 π π0 X 0 and the map fx : Ex ! Ex is linear over k(x). f is an isomorphism if fx is an isomorphism for all x. A vector bundle is a family of vector spaces that is locally trivial, i.e., for each x 2 X, there exists a neighborhood U 3 x such that there is an isomorphism ': π−1(U) !∼ U × Ar that is an isomorphism of families of vector spaces by the following diagram: −1 ∼ r π (U) ' U × A (1.1) π pr1 U −1 where pr1 denotes the first projection. We call π (U) ! U the restriction of the vector bundle π : E ! X onto U, denoted by EjU . r is locally constant, hence is constant on every irreducible component of X. If it is constant everywhere on X, we call r the rank of the vector bundle. 1 The following lemma tells us how local trivializations of a vector bundle glue together on the entire space X. -
LECTURE 6: FIBER BUNDLES in This Section We Will Introduce The
LECTURE 6: FIBER BUNDLES In this section we will introduce the interesting class of fibrations given by fiber bundles. Fiber bundles play an important role in many geometric contexts. For example, the Grassmaniann varieties and certain fiber bundles associated to Stiefel varieties are central in the classification of vector bundles over (nice) spaces. The fact that fiber bundles are examples of Serre fibrations follows from Theorem ?? which states that being a Serre fibration is a local property. 1. Fiber bundles and principal bundles Definition 6.1. A fiber bundle with fiber F is a map p: E ! X with the following property: every ∼ −1 point x 2 X has a neighborhood U ⊆ X for which there is a homeomorphism φU : U × F = p (U) such that the following diagram commutes in which π1 : U × F ! U is the projection on the first factor: φ U × F U / p−1(U) ∼= π1 p * U t Remark 6.2. The projection X × F ! X is an example of a fiber bundle: it is called the trivial bundle over X with fiber F . By definition, a fiber bundle is a map which is `locally' homeomorphic to a trivial bundle. The homeomorphism φU in the definition is a local trivialization of the bundle, or a trivialization over U. Let us begin with an interesting subclass. A fiber bundle whose fiber F is a discrete space is (by definition) a covering projection (with fiber F ). For example, the exponential map R ! S1 is a covering projection with fiber Z. Suppose X is a space which is path-connected and locally simply connected (in fact, the weaker condition of being semi-locally simply connected would be enough for the following construction). -
Formal GAGA for Good Moduli Spaces
FORMAL GAGA FOR GOOD MODULI SPACES ANTON GERASCHENKO AND DAVID ZUREICK-BROWN Abstract. We prove formal GAGA for good moduli space morphisms under an assumption of “enough vector bundles” (which holds for instance for quotient stacks). This supports the philoso- phy that though they are non-separated, good moduli space morphisms largely behave like proper morphisms. 1. Introduction Good moduli space morphisms are a common generalization of good quotients by linearly re- ductive group schemes [GIT] and coarse moduli spaces of tame Artin stacks [AOV08, Definition 3.1]. Definition ([Alp13, Definition 4.1]). A quasi-compact and quasi-separated morphism of locally Noetherian algebraic stacks φ: X → Y is a good moduli space morphism if • (φ is Stein) the morphism OY → φ∗OX is an isomorphism, and • (φ is cohomologically affine) the functor φ∗ : QCoh(OX ) → QCoh(OY ) is exact. If φ: X → Y is such a morphism, then any morphism from X to an algebraic space factors through φ [Alp13, Theorem 6.6].1 In particular, if there exists a good moduli space morphism φ: X → X where X is an algebraic space, then X is determined up to unique isomorphism. In this case, X is said to be the good moduli space of X . If X = [U/G], this corresponds to X being a good quotient of U by G in the sense of [GIT] (e.g. for a linearly reductive G, [Spec R/G] → Spec RG is a good moduli space). In many respects, good moduli space morphisms behave like proper morphisms. They are uni- versally closed [Alp13, Theorem 4.16(ii)] and weakly separated [ASvdW10, Proposition 2.17], but since points of X can have non-proper stabilizer groups, good moduli space morphisms are gen- erally not separated (e.g. -

Lie Groups A Lie group G is a smooth manifold such that the multiplication map G × G ! G, (g; h) 7! gh, and the inverse map G ! G, g 7! g−1, are smooth maps. A Lie subgroup H of G is a subgroup of G which is at the same time an embedded submanifold. A Lie group homomorphism is a group homomorphism which is a smooth map between the Lie groups. The Lie algebra, denoted by Lie(G), of a Lie group G consists of the set of left-invariant vector fields on G, i.e., Lie(G) = fX 2 X (G)j(Lg)∗X = Xg, where Lg : G ! G is the left translation Lg(h) = gh. As a vector space, Lie(G) is naturally identified with the tangent space TeG via X 7! X(e). A Lie group homomorphism naturally induces a Lie algebra homomorphism between the associated Lie algebras. Finally, the universal cover of a connected Lie group is naturally a Lie group, which is in one to one correspondence with the corresponding Lie algebras. Example 1.1. Here are some important Lie groups in geometry and topology. • GL(n; R), GL(n; C), where GL(n; C) can be naturally identified as a Lie sub- group of GL(2n; R). • SL(n; R), O(n), SO(n) = O(n) \ SL(n; R), Lie subgroups of GL(n; R). -
256B Algebraic Geometry
256B Algebraic Geometry David Nadler Notes by Qiaochu Yuan Spring 2013 1 Vector bundles on the projective line This semester we will be focusing on coherent sheaves on smooth projective complex varieties. The organizing framework for this class will be a 2-dimensional topological field theory called the B-model. Topics will include 1. Vector bundles and coherent sheaves 2. Cohomology, derived categories, and derived functors (in the differential graded setting) 3. Grothendieck-Serre duality 4. Reconstruction theorems (Bondal-Orlov, Tannaka, Gabriel) 5. Hochschild homology, Chern classes, Grothendieck-Riemann-Roch For now we'll introduce enough background to talk about vector bundles on P1. We'll regard varieties as subsets of PN for some N. Projective will mean that we look at closed subsets (with respect to the Zariski topology). The reason is that if p : X ! pt is the unique map from such a subset X to a point, then we can (derived) push forward a bounded complex of coherent sheaves M on X to a bounded complex of coherent sheaves on a point Rp∗(M). Smooth will mean the following. If x 2 X is a point, then locally x is cut out by 2 a maximal ideal mx of functions vanishing on x. Smooth means that dim mx=mx = dim X. (In general it may be bigger.) Intuitively it means that locally at x the variety X looks like a manifold, and one way to make this precise is that the completion of the local ring at x is isomorphic to a power series ring C[[x1; :::xn]]; this is the ring where Taylor series expansions live. -

WHAT IS A CONNECTION, AND WHAT IS IT GOOD FOR? TIMOTHY E. GOLDBERG Abstract. In the study of differentiable manifolds, there are several different objects that go by the name of \connection". I will describe some of these objects, and show how they are related to each other. The motivation for many notions of a connection is the search for a sufficiently nice directional derivative, and this will be my starting point as well. The story will by necessity include many supporting characters from differential geometry, all of whom will receive a brief but hopefully sufficient introduction. I apologize for my ungrammatical title. Contents 1. Introduction 2 2. The search for a good directional derivative 3 3. Fiber bundles and Ehresmann connections 7 4. A quick word about curvature 10 5.

Introduction In the study of differentiable manifolds, there are several different objects that go by the name of \connection", and this has been confusing me for some time now. One solution to this dilemma was to promise myself that I would some day present a talk about connections in the Olivetti Club at Cornell University. That day has come, and this document contains my notes for this talk. In the interests of brevity, I do not include too many technical details, and instead refer the reader to some lovely references. My main references were [2], [4], and [5]. -
Vector Bundles and Connections
VECTOR BUNDLES AND CONNECTIONS WERNER BALLMANN The exposition of vector bundles and connections below is taken from my lecture notes on differential geometry at the University of Bonn. I included more material than I usually cover in my lectures. On the other hand, I completely deleted the discussion of “concrete examples”, so that a pinch of salt has to be added by the customer. Standard references for vector bundles and connections are [GHV] and [KN], where the interested reader finds a rather comprehensive discussion of the subject. I would like to thank Andreas Balser for pointing out some misprints. The exposition is still in a preliminary state. Suggestions are very welcome. Contents 1. Vector Bundles 2 1.1. Sections 4 1.2.

Vector Bundles A bundle is a triple (π,E,M), where π : E → M is a map. In other words, a bundle is nothing else but a map. The term bundle is used −1 when the emphasis is on the preimages Ep := π (p) of the points p ∈ M; we call Ep the fiber of π over p and p the base point of Ep. -

Dedicated to Professor Kentaro Yano It was some 35 years ago that I learned from him Bochner's method of proving vanishing theorems, which plays a central role in this book. Preface In order to construct good moduli spaces for vector bundles over algebraic curves, Mumford introduced the concept of a stable vector bundle. This concept has been generalized to vector bundles and, more generally, coherent sheaves over algebraic manifolds by Takemoto, Bogomolov and Gieseker. As the dif- ferential geometric counterpart to the stability, I introduced the concept of an Einstein{Hermitian vector bundle. The main purpose of this book is to lay a foundation for the theory of Einstein{Hermitian vector bundles. We shall not give a detailed introduction here in this preface since the table of contents is fairly self-explanatory and, furthermore, each chapter is headed by a brief introduction. -

Arxiv:1505.02430V1 [Math.CT] 10 May 2015 Bundle Functors and Fibrations
Bundle functors and fibrations Anders Kock Introduction The notions of bundle, and bundle functor, are useful and well exploited notions in topology and differential geometry, cf. e.g. [12], as well as in other branches of mathematics. The category theoretic set up relevant for these notions is that of fibred category, likewise a well exploited notion, but for certain considerations in the context of bundle functors, it can be carried further. In particular, we formalize and develop, in terms of fibred categories, some of the differential geometric con- structions: tangent- and cotangent bundles, (being examples of bundle functors, respectively star-bundle functors, as in [12]), as well as jet bundles (where the for- mulation of the functorality properties, in terms of fibered categories, is probably new). Part of the development in the present note was expounded in [11], and is repeated almost verbatim in the Sections 2 and 4 below. These sections may have interest as a piece of pure category theory, not referring to differential geometry. 1 Basics on Cartesian arrows We recall here some classical notions. arXiv:1505.02430v1 [math.CT] 10 May 2015 Let π : X → B be any functor. For α : A → B in B, and for objects X,Y ∈ X with π(X) = A and π(Y ) = B, let homα (X,Y) be the set of arrows h : X → Y in X with π(h) = α. The fibre over A ∈ B is the category, denoted XA, whose objects are the X ∈ X with π(X) = A, and whose arrows are arrows in X which by π map to 1A; such arrows are called vertical (over A). -

Cohomology of line bundles on projective space 9 In these two lectures, we will define Cech cohomology and discuss its most important properties, although not in that order. 1. INTRODUCTION As Γ(X; ·) is a left-exact functor, if 0 ! F ! G ! H ! 0 is a short exact sequence of sheaves on X, then 0 ! F(X) ! G(X) ! H(X) is exact. We dream that this sequence continues off to the right, giving a long exact se- quence. More explicitly, there should be some covariant functors Hi (i ≥ 0) from qua- sicoherent sheaves on X to groups such that H0 = Γ, and so that there is a “long exact sequence in cohomology”. (1) 0 / H0(X; F) / H0(X; G) / H0(X; H) / H1(X; F) / H1(X; G) / H1(X; H) / · · · (In general, whenever we see a left-exact or right-exact functor, we should hope for this, and in good cases our dreams will come true. The machinery behind this is sometimes called derived functor cohomology, which we will discuss shortly.) Before defining cohomology groups of quasicoherent sheaves explicitly, we first de- scribe their important properties. Indeed these fundamental properties are in some ways more important than the formal definition. The boxed properties will be the important ones. Date: Friday, February 22 and Monday, February 25, 2008. 1 Suppose X is a separated and quasicompact A-scheme. (The separated and quasicom- pact hypotheses will be necessary in our construction.) For each quasicoherent sheaf F on X, we will define A-modules Hi(X; F).
