On Arakelov vector bundles over arithmetic curves (Q2906517)

This article is based on a talk given by the author at a conference on Symmetries in Algebra and Number Theory, held in 2008 in Göttingen. The classical results of Riemann-Roch and of Narasimhan-Seshadri on regarding vector bundles over algebraic curves are recalled and analogues in the theory of Arakelov vector bundles over arithmetic curves are discussed. The article closes with a proof of a weak version of an analogue of Faltings's criterion for semistability, due to the author. A full proof of this result can be found in [\textit{N. Hoffmann}, Doc. Math., J. DMV 8, 115--123 (2003; Zbl 1074.14022)].NEWLINENEWLINEFor the entire collection see [Zbl 1235.00048].
