{synonym}
<Chern curvature> defines $\alpha(E)=[\Theta]\in H^1(M,\Omega_M^1\otimes\operatorname{End}E)$. If two metrics give connections differing by $a$, then $\Theta_1-\Theta_0=\bar\partial_{\operatorname{End}E}a$. Thus this <vector-bundle curvature> class depends on the holomorphic bundle rather than the chosen metric.
