Chern classes of vector bundles on arithmetic varieties

Tohru Nakashima and Yuichiro Takeda

Vol. 176 (1996), No. 1, 205–216
Abstract

Let F be a Hermitian vector bundle on an arithmetic variety X over . We prove an inequality between the L2-norm of an element in H1(X,F) and arithmetic Chern classes of F under certain stability condition. This is a higher dimensional analogue of a result of C. Soulé for Hermitian line bundles on arithmetic surfaces. We observe that our result is related to a conjectural inequality of Miyaoka-Yau type.
