Holomorphic bundles for higher dimensional gauge theory

arXiv:1109.2750 · doi:10.1112/blms.12017

Abstract

Motivated by gauge theory under special holonomy, we present techniques to produce holomorphic bundles over certain noncompact folds, called building blocks, satisfying a stability condition `at infinity'. Such bundles are known to parametrise solutions of the Yang-Mills equation over the manifolds obtained from asymptotically cylindrical Calabi-Yau folds studied by Kovalev and by Corti-Haskins-Nordström-Pacini et al. The most important tool is a generalisation of Hoppe's stability criterion to holomorphic bundles over smooth projective varieties with , a result which may be of independent interest. Finally, we apply monads to produce a prototypical model of the curvature blow-up phenomenon along a sequence of asymptotically stable bundles degenerating into a torsion-free sheaf.
