To generalize the Hopf index theorem and the Atiyah–Dupont vector fields theory, one is interested in the following problem: for a real vector bundle E over a closed manifold M with rank E = dim M, whether there exist two linearly independent cross sections of E? We provide, among others, a complete answer to this problem when both E and M are orientable. It extends the corresponding results for E = TM of Thomas, Atiyah, and Atiyah–Dupont. Moreover we prove a vanishing result of a certain mod 2 index when the bundle E admits a complex structure. This vanishing result implies many known famous results as consequences. Ideas and methods from obstruction theory, K-theory and index theory are used in getting our results.

AbstractTangent fibrations generate a “multi-floored tower”, while raising from one of its floors to the next one, one practically reiterates the previously performed actions. In this way, the "tower" admits a ladder-shaped structure. Raising to the first floors suffices for iteratively performing the subsequent steps. The paper mainly studies the tangent functor. We describe the structure of multiple vector bundle which naturally appears on the floors, tangent maps, sector-forms, the lift of vector fields to upper floors. Further, we show how tangent groups of Lie groups lead to gauge theory, and explain in this context the meaning of covariant differentiation. Finally, we will point out within the floors special subbundles - the osculating bundles, which play an essential role in classical theories.

Let [Formula: see text] be a holomorphic submersion from a complex manifold [Formula: see text] onto a 1-convex manifold [Formula: see text] with exceptional set [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] a holomorphic section. Let [Formula: see text] be a plurisubharmonic exhaustion function which is strictly plurisubharmonic on [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] For every holomorphic vector bundle [Formula: see text] there exists a neighborhood [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] for [Formula: see text] conic along [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text] can be endowed with Nakano strictly positive Hermitian metric. Let [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] be a given holomorphic function. There exist finitely many bounded holomorphic vector fields defined on a Stein neighborhood [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] conic along [Formula: see text] with zeroes of arbitrary high order on [Formula: see text] and such that they generate [Formula: see text] Moreover, there exists a smaller neighborhood [Formula: see text] such that their flows remain in [Formula: see text] for sufficiently small times thus generating a local dominating spray.

Abstract VB-groupoids and algebroids are vector bundle objects in the categories of Lie groupoids and Lie algebroids, respectively, and they are related via the Lie functor. VB-groupoids and algebroids play a prominent role in Poisson and related geometries. Additionally, they can be seen as models for vector bundles over singular spaces. In this paper we study their infinitesimal automorphisms, i.e. vector fields on them generating a flow by diffeomorphisms preserving both the linear and the groupoid/algebroid structures. For a special class of VB-groupoids/algebroids coming from representations of Lie groupoids/algebroids, we prove that infinitesimal automorphisms are the same as multiplicative sections of a certain derivation VB-groupoid/algebroid.

A difficult issue in modern commutative algebra asks for examples of modules (more interestingly, reflexive vector bundles) having prescribed reduction number $r\geq 1$. The problem is even subtler if in addition we are interested in good properties for the Rees algebra. In this note we consider the case $r=1$. Precisely, we show that the module of logarithmic vector fields of the Fermat divisor of any degree in projective $3$-space is a reflexive vector bundle of reduction number $1$ and Gorenstein Rees ring.
