Symplectic structures on moduli spaces of framed sheaves on surfaces
We provide generalizations of the notions of Atiyah class and Kodaira-Spencer
map to the case of framed sheaves. Moreover, we construct closed two-forms on
the moduli spaces of framed sheaves on surfaces. As an application, we define a
symplectic structure on the moduli spaces of framed sheaves on some
birationally ruled surfaces.Comment: v2: final version to appear in Centr. Eur. J. Math, section

On the notion of a semi-abelian category in the sense of Palamodov
In the sense of Palamodov, a preabelian category is semi-abelian if for every
morphism the natural morphism between the cokernel of its kernel and the kernel
of its cokernel is simultaneously a monomorphism and an epimorphism. In this
article we present several conditions which are all equivalent to
semi-abelianity. First we consider left and right semi-abelian categories in
the sense of Rump and establish characterizations of these notions via six
equivalent properties. Then we use these properties to deduce the
characterization of semi-abelianity. Finally, we investigate two examples
arising in functional analysis which illustrate that the notions of right and
left semi-abelian categories are distinct and in particular that such
categories occur in nature.Comment: Version of March 3, 2011. 10 page
