The Chern character of the Verlinde bundle overMg,n
نویسنده
چکیده
We prove an explicit formula for the total Chern character of the Verlinde bundle over Mg,n in terms of tautological classes. The Chern characters of the Verlinde bundles define a semisimple CohFT (the ranks, given by the Verlinde formula, determine a semisimple fusion algebra). According to Teleman’s classification of semisimple CohFTs, there exists an element of Givental’s group transforming the fusion algebra into the CohFT. We determine the element using the first Chern class of the Verlinde bundle on the interiorMg,n and the projective flatness of the Hitchin connection.

The Chern Classes of the Verlinde Bundles
A formula for the first Chern class of the Verlinde bundle over the moduli space of smooth genus g curves is given. A finite-dimensional argument is presented in rank 2 using geometric symmetries obtained from strange duality, relative Serre duality, and Wirtinger duality together with the projective flatness of the Hitchin connection. A derivation using conformal-block methods is presented in ...
متن کاملChern Character in Twisted K-theory: Equivariant and Holomorphic Cases
It was argued in [25], [5] that in the presence of a nontrivial Bfield, D-brane charges in type IIB string theories are classified by twisted Ktheory. In [4], it was proved that twisted K-theory is canonically isomorphic to bundle gerbe K-theory, whose elements are ordinary Hilbert bundles on a principal projective unitary bundle, with an action of the bundle gerbe determined by the principal p...
متن کاملThe Verlinde Formula for Higgs Bundles
We propose and prove the Verlinde formula for the quantization of the Higgs bundle moduli spaces and stacks for any simple and simply-connected group. This generalizes the equivariant Verlinde formula for the case of SU(n) proposed in [GP]. We further establish a Verlinde formula for the quantization of parabolic Higgs bundle moduli spaces and stacks.
متن کاملHarmonic Twistor Formalism and Transgression on Hyperkähler Manifolds
In this paper we continue our study of the transgression of characteristic classes of hyperholo-morphic bundles on hyperkähler manifolds [2]. In the previous paper the global construction for the fourth order transgression of the Chern character form on a compact hyperkähler manifold was proposed. In addition, the explicit expression for the transgression of the Chern character arising in the a...

For three classes of elliptic pseudodifferential operators on a compact manifold with boundary which have ‘geometric K-theory’, namely the ‘transmission algebra’ introduced by Boutet de Monvel [5], the ‘zero algebra’ introduced by Mazzeo in [9, 10] and the ‘scattering algebra’ from [16] we give explicit formulæ for the Chern character of the index bundle in terms of the symbols (including norma...
