vector bundle

vector bundle (plural vector bundles)

1. (topology, category theory) A fiber bundle for which the fiber is a vector space.

     Let E and F be two vector bundles on a compact algebraic set X.

   • 2012, Igor Burban, Bernd Kreussler, Vector Bundles on Degenerations of Elliptic Curves and Yang-Baxter Equations, American Mathematical Society, page 5,

     This^[sic] solutions actually depend on the choice of a trivialisation ${\displaystyle \xi }$ of the universal family ${\displaystyle {\mathcal {P}}(n,d)}$ of stable vector bundles of rank ${\displaystyle n}$ and degree ${\displaystyle d}$.

   • 2017, David J. Benson, Representations of Elementary Abelian p-Groups and Vector Bundles, Cambridge University Press, page 130:

     Definition 6.1.5 A non-zero vector bundle ${\displaystyle {\mathcal {F}}}$ on ${\displaystyle X}$ is said to be decomposable if it can be written as ${\displaystyle {\mathcal {F}}_{1}\oplus {\mathcal {F}}_{2}}$ with ${\displaystyle {\mathcal {F}}_{1}}$ and ${\displaystyle {\mathcal {F}}_{2}}$ non-zero vector bundles. Otherwise it is said to be indecomposable.
