In this paper we consider the following problem. Let (E, M, N, π) be a differentiable fibre bundle, whereEis the total space,Mthe base space,Nthe fibre, andπ: E→Mthe projection map. Then, given aCrtriangulation (ƒ, D) ofM,can one obtain aCrtriangulation (F, K) ofEsuch that the induced mapƒ–1πF:K→ D is linear? R. Lashof and M. Rothenberg (3) have obtained this result for vector bundles.Using methods quite different from theirs, we obtain a solution in the general case. The methods we use are the geometric methods developed by J. H. C. Whitehead. (7) in his triangulation of differentiable manifolds, as found in (5). In fact, our solution consists of generalizing his techniques in a fibre bundle setting.

This paper studies dispersiveness of semiflows on fiber bundles. The main result says that a right invariant semiflow on a fiber bundle is dispersive on the base space if and only if there is no almost periodic point and the semiflow is dispersive on the total space. A special result states that linear semiflows on vector bundles are not dispersive.

Abstract Heterotic compactifications on Calabi-Yau threefolds frequently exhibit textures of vanishing Yukawa couplings in their low energy description. The vanishing of these couplings is often not enforced by any obvious symmetry and appears to be topological in nature. Recent results used differential geometric methods to explain the origin of some of this structure [1, 2]. A vanishing theorem was given which showed that the effect could be attributed, in part, to the embedding of the Calabi-Yau manifolds of interest inside higher dimensional ambient spaces, if the gauge bundles involved descended from vector bundles on those larger manifolds. In this paper, we utilize an algebro-geometric approach to provide an alternative derivation of some of these results, and are thus able to generalize them to a much wider arena than has been considered before. For example, we consider cases where the vector bundles of interest do not descend from bundles on the ambient space. In such a manner we are able to highlight the ubiquity with which textures of vanishing Yukawa couplings can be expected to arise in heterotic compactifications, with multiple different constraints arising from a plethora of different geometric features associated to the gauge bundle.

The scattering wave functions and Green’s functions were found in a total space of a Dirac monopole principal bundle. Also, hidden symmetries of a charge-Dirac monopole system and those joining the states relating to different topological charges n=2eg were found.

In this section we fix some notations and give a definition of an area measure on a differentiate manifold, where throughout the paper the word differentiable implies differentiability of class C∞. LetMdenote a differentiate manifold of dimensionnand call a set ofmlinearly independent vectors{e1,… ,em} at a point ofManm-frame ofM.The setE′of all suchm-frames can be given the structure of a differentiable fibre bundle overMand we denote the projection ofE'ontoMbyπ′.

The idea of exact filling bundle may be described roughly as follows. Suppose that ξk is a vector bundle with fibre Rk, total space E(ξk) and base X. We say that ξk is a real k-plane bundle on X. Let in be the trivial n-plane bundle on X so that E(in) = X × Rn. A bundle monomorphism j: ξk → in defines a map : E(ξk)→Rn obtained by composition of the embedding E(ξk)→E(in) and the product projection E(in) → Rn. The map represents each fibre of ξk as a k-plane in Rn.

AbstractLet E → B be a fibre bundle and let Eʹ → B be a vector bundle. Let G be a compact Lie group acting fibre preservingly and freely on both E and Eʹ – 0, where 0 is the zero section of Eʹ → B. Let f : E → Eʹ be a fibre-preserving G-equivariant map and let Zf = {x ∈ E | f(x) = 0} be the zero set of f. In this paper we give a lower bound for the cohomological dimension of the zero set Zf when a fibre of E → B is a real Stiefel manifold with a free ℤ/2-action or a complex Stiefel manifold with a free 𝕊1-action. This generalizes a well-known result of Dold for sphere bundles equipped with free involutions.

AbstractA local description of space and time in which translations are included in the group of gauge transformations is studied using the formalism of fibre bundles. It is shown that the flat Minkowski space–time may be obtained from a non-flat connection in a de Sitter structured fibre bundle by choosing at least two different cross-sections. The interaction terms in the covariant derivative of a Dirac wave function that correspond to translations may be interpreted as the mass term of the Dirac equation, and then the two cross-sections (gauges) correspond to the description of a fermion and antifermion respectively.

We consider circle bundles over symplectic manifolds to study Gromov–Witten type invariants. We investigate the moduli space of pseudo-coholomorphic maps, Gromov–Witten type invariant, the quantum type cohomology of the total space which has a natural contact structure. We then compare Gromov–Witten invariant, and quantum cohomology of the base space with the one of the total space, and derive some relations between them.

In this paper, we introduce bi-slant submersions from almost Hermitian manifolds onto Riemannian manifolds as a generalization of invariant, anti-invariant, semi-invariant, slant, semi-slant and hemi-slant Riemannian submersions. We mainly focus on bi-slant submersions from Kaehler manifolds. We provide a proper example of bi-slant submersion, investigate the geometry of foliations determined by vertical and horizontal distributions, and obtain the geometry of leaves of these distributions. Moreover, we obtain curvature relations between the base space, the total space and the fibers, and find geometric implications of these relations.
