Instanton moduli spaces on non-K\"ahlerian surfaces. Holomorphic models around the reduction loci
Let be a moduli space of polystable rank 2-bundles bundles with
fixed determinant (a moduli space of -instantons) on a
Gauduchon surface with and . We study the holomorphic structure
of around a circle of regular reductions. Our model
space is a "blowup flip passage", which is a manifold with boundary whose
boundary is a projective fibration, and whose interior comes with a natural
complex structure.
We prove that a neighborhood of the boundary of the blowup
of at can be
smoothly identified with a neighborhood of the boundary of a "flip passage"
, the identification being holomorphic on .Comment: 30 page
Exceptional quantum geometry and particle physics
Based on an interpretation of the quark-lepton symmetry in terms of the
unimodularity of the color group and on the existence of 3 generations,
we develop an argumentation suggesting that the "finite quantum space"
corresponding to the exceptional real Jordan algebra of dimension 27 (the
Euclidean Albert algebra) is relevant for the description of internal spaces in
the theory of particles. In particular, the triality which corresponds to the 3
off-diagonal octonionic elements of the exceptional algebra is associated to
the 3 generations of the Standard Model while the representation of the
octonions as a complex 4-dimensional space is
associated to the quark-lepton symmetry, (one complex for the lepton and 3 for
the corresponding quark). More generally it is is suggested that the
replacement of the algebra of real functions on spacetime by the algebra of
functions on spacetime with values in a finite-dimensional Euclidean Jordan
algebra which plays the role of "the algebra of real functions" on the
corresponding almost classical quantum spacetime is relevant in particle
physics. This leads us to study the theory of Jordan modules and to develop the
differential calculus over Jordan algebras, (i.e. to introduce the appropriate
notion of differential forms). We formulate the corresponding definition of
connections on Jordan modules.Comment: 37 pages ; some minor typo corrections. To appear in Nucl. Pays. B
