A continuously varying family of vector spaces of the same dimension over a topological space. If the vector spaces are one-dimensional, the term line bundle is used and has the associated tag line-bundles.

Symmetric powers and duals of vector bundles in char p

I shall show that the answer is no when $p=2$ (and it seems to me that a somewhat more involved calculation will work for any $p$). We shall show that there exists a vector bundle $\mathcal E$ such th …

Complex vector bundles with trivial Chern classes on k-tori

As the cohomology of $(S^1)^n$ is torsion free every stable bundle on $(S^1)^n$ is determined by Chern classes (this also follows from the $K$-theory Künneth formula) so just as for the spheres it is …

A ring such that all projectives are stably free but not all projectives are free?

This is an attempt to complete Tyler's argument. We first note that $KO^0(S^5)=\mathbb Z$ (note this true for all spheres of dimension $\equiv 5,6,7 \bmod 8$). This means that every topological vector …

Deformations of sheaves via automorphisms. How to express $Ext^1$?

Here is a not so fancy description. There is a general principle (in algebraic geometry but applicable to some neighbouring disciplines) that says that anything that is functorial and commutes with b …
