Let P be a principal bundle with semisimple compact simply connected structure group G over a compact simply connected four-manifold M. In this note we give explicit formulas for the rational homotopy groups and cohomology algebra of the…

We develop a new perspective on principal bundles with connection as morphisms from the tangent bundle of the underlying manifold to a classifying dg-Lie groupoid. This groupoid can be identified with a lift of the inner homomorphisms…

We use augmented commutative differential graded algebra (ACDGA) models to study $G$-representation varieties of fundamental groups $\pi=\pi_1(M)$ and their embedded cohomology jump loci, around the trivial representation 1. When the space…

For a Lie algebroid pair $A\hookrightarrow L$ we study cocycles constructed from the extension to $L$ of the higher connection forms of a representation up to homotopy $E$ of the Lie algebroid $A$. We show that there exists a cohomology…

We disclose the mathematical structure underlying the gauge field sector of the recently constructed non-abelian superconformal models in six spacetime dimensions. This is a coupled system of 1-form, 2-form, and 3-form gauge fields. We show…

An associative ring $A$ gives rise to the Lie ring $A^{(-)}=(A,[a,b ]=ab-ba)$. The subject of isomorphisms of Lie rings $A^{(-)}$ and $[A,A]$ has attracted considerable attention in the literature. We prove that if the identity element of…

In this paper we analyse the topological group cohomology of finite-dimensional Lie groups. We introduce a technique for computing it (as abelian groups) for torus coefficients by the naturally associated long exact sequence. The upshot in…

We study the Lie bialgebra structures that can be built on the one-dimensional central extension of the Poincar\'e and (A)dS algebras in (1+1) dimensions. These central extensions admit more than one interpretation, but the simplest one is…

Lie groups of automorphisms of cotangent bundles of Lie groups are completely characterized and interesting results are obtained. We give prominence to the fact that the Lie groups of automorphisms of cotangent bundles of Lie groups are…

Let L be a countable elementary language, N be a Fraisse limit. We consider free amalgamation for L-structures where L is arbitrary. If free amalgamation for finitely generated substructures exits in N, then it is a stationary independece…

In earlier work (*) we studied an extension of the canonical symplectic structure in the cotangent bundle of an affine space ${\cal Q}={\bf R}^N$, by additional terms implying the Poisson non-commutativity of both configuration and momentum…

We give a characterization of flat affine connections on manifolds by means of a natural affine representation of the universal covering of the Lie group of diffeomorphisms preserving the connection. From the infinitesimal point of view,…

The purpose of this paper is to investigate $(n+1)$-Lie algebras induced by $n$-Lie algebras and trace maps. We highlight a comparison of their structure properties (solvability, nilpotency) and the cohomology groups as well as central…

We consider here the category of diffeological vector pseudo-bundles, and study a possible extension of classical differential geometric tools on finite dimensional vector bundles, namely, the group of automorphisms, the frame bundle, the…

We construct spaces of coinvariants at principally polarized abelian varieties with respect to the action of an infinite-dimensional Lie algebra. We show how these spaces globalize to twisted $\mathcal{D}$-modules on moduli of principally…

In this paper we generalize classical results on Lie algebras and universal enveloping algebras of Lie algebras to Lie-Rinehart algebras. We define for any Lie-Rinehart algebra $L$ and any cocycle $f$ in $Z^2(L,B)$, a universal enveloping…

This paper deals with affine connections on real manifolds. We give a new characterization of flat affine connections on real manifolds by means of certain affine representations of the Lie group of automorphisms preserving the connection.…

Let M be a (bounded or not) domain of C^n which is complete with respect to a K\"ahler metric, or more generally, a complete K\"ahler manifold with trivial canonical bundle. Let f be a linearly nondegenerate meromorphic map from M to the…

Building upon the work of Pavel in [P. Kolesnikov, Journal of Mathematical Physics, 56, 7 (2015)], we first present the cohomology of averaging operators on the Lie conformal algebras and use it to develop the cohomology of averaging Lie…

In a recent paper by Zhao and the author, the Lie algebras $A[D]=A\otimes F[D]$ of Weyl type were defined and studied, where $A$ is a commutative associative algebra with an identity element over a field $F$ of any characteristic, and…
