Nov 7, 2009 at 7:07 comment added Csar Lozano Huerta I have in mind the following definition. Let E be a holomorphic vector bundle over M with a hermitian metric. Moreover let D be a connection on E. Then we can define D^2 so that the curvature matrix of 2-forms. Such a curvature matrix (tensor) gives rise to a Hermitian form O_E on the bundle TM\otimes E. We can say that E is positive if such a hermitian form O_E is positive at every point of M.
Nov 7, 2009 at 1:05 comment added Ryan Budney Perhaps your question isn't specific enough. What do you mean by "curvature" for a general vector bundle?
Nov 6, 2009 at 16:58 comment added Csar Lozano Huerta Let's say that a vector bundle E is positive if its curvature form is positive everywhere. What is the geometric info about our manifold that this fact carries?

Nov 6, 2009 at 15:22 comment added 1-- I'm not sure if this helps, but when I hear 'positive vector bundle', I think of something along the lines of eom.springer.de/p/p073980.htm. Anyway, it would be good to know what Csar has in mind exactly.
Nov 6, 2009 at 11:22 comment added David E Speyer I believe there is a definition of positivity of a vector bundle in Lazarsfeld's book "Positivity in Algebraic Geometry." That said, I would also like to know what defnition Csar is using.
Nov 6, 2009 at 7:21 comment added Kim Morrison I don't understand what sense of positivity you're talking about here.
