Resolution Property

We investigate the assumptions under which a subclass of flat quasicoherent sheaves on a quasicompact and semiseparated scheme allows us to ‘mock’ the homotopy category of projective modules. Our methods are based on module-theoretic properties of the subclass of flat modules involved as well as their behaviour with respect to Zariski localizations. As a consequence we get that, for such schemes, the derived category of flat quasicoherent sheaves is equivalent to the derived category of very flat quasicoherent sheaves. If, in addition, the scheme satisfies the resolution property then both derived categories are equivalent to the derived category of infinite-dimensional vector bundles. The equivalences are inferred from a Quillen equivalence between the corresponding models.

We determine the group structure of the homotopy set whose target is the automorphism group of the Cuntz algebra [Formula: see text] for finite [Formula: see text] in terms of K-theory. We show that there is an example of a space for which the homotopy set is a noncommutative group, and hence, the classifying space of the automorphism group of the Cuntz algebra for finite [Formula: see text] is not an H-space. We also make an improvement of Dadarlat’s classification of continuous fields of the Cuntz algebras in terms of vector bundles.

Differentiable Vector

In topology, one can define in several ways the Chern class of a vector bundle over a certain topological space (Chern [2], Hirzebruch [7], Milnor [9], Steenrod [15]). In algebraic geometry, Grothendieck has defined the Chern class of a vector bundle over a non-singular variety. Furthermore, in the case of differentiable vector bundles, one knows that the set of differentiable cross-sections to a bundle forms a finitely generated projective module over the ring of differentiable functions on the base manifold. This gives a one to one correspondence between the set of vector bundles and the set of f.g.-projective modules (Milnor [10]). Applying Grauert’s theorems (Grauert [5]), one can prove that the same statement holds for holomorphic vector bundles over a Stein manifold.

K Theory

We give a unifying description of the Dirac monopole on the 2-sphere S2, of a graded monopole on a (2, 2)-supersphere S2, 2 and of the BPST instanton on the 4-sphere S4, by constructing a suitable global projector p via equivariant maps. This projector determines the projective modules of finite type of sections of the corresponding vector bundle. The canonical connection ∇ = p ◦ d is used to compute the topological charge which is found to be equal to -1 for the three cases. The transposed projector q = pt gives the value +1 for the charges; this showing that transposition of projectors, although an isomorphism in K-theory, is not the identity map. We also study the invariance under the action of suitable Lie groups.

Homogeneous Vector

Quantum homogeneous vector bundles are introduced in the context of Woronowicz type compact quantum groups. The bundles carry natural topologies, and their sections furnish finite type projective modules over algebras of functions on quantum homogeneous spaces. Further properties of the quantum homogeneous vector bundles are investigated, and applied to the study of the geometrical structures of induced representations of quantum groups.
