Inspried by this MO question A manifold whose tangent space is a sum of line bundles and higher rank vector bundles we pose the following question as a possible smooth version of the splitting p …

Let $S$ be a compact Riemann surface and $f:S\to S$ be a continuous self map of positive degree. Is $f$ homotopic to a holomorphic map on $S$? Motivation: I had intention to consider this question f …

Let $E$ be a vector bundle on a topological space $X$.Thanks to Allen Hatcher's book "Vector Bundles and K theory", the construction of sphere bundle $S(E)$ can be done without any inner product on fi …

Let $X$ be a compact Hausdorff space.Put $Vec(X)$, the space of all real (or complex) vector bundles over $X$.We put also $Vec_g(X)$, the space of all Riemannian vector bundles over $X$, that is the s …

Assume that $M$ is a $k$ dimensional manifold which is embedded in $\mathbb{R}^n$. We define the map $\phi_{M,n}: M \to G(k,n)$ with $\phi_{M,n} (x)= T_x M$, the tangent space to $M$ at point $x\in M$ …
