A family of geometries on S^7 arise as solutions of the classical equations of motion in 11 dimensions. In addition to the conventional riemannian geometry and the two exceptional Cartan-Schouten compact flat geometries with torsion, one…

Symmetry groups allow to transform solutions of differential equations continuously into other solutions. This property can be used for the observability analysis of infinite-dimensional systems with input and output. In this contribution,…
Axially symmetric processes on spheres, for which the second-order dependency structure may substantially vary with shifts in latitude, are a prominent alternative to model the spatial uncertainty of natural variables located over large…
We define and study complex structures and generalizations on spaces consisting of geodesics or harmonic maps that are compatible with the symmetries of these spaces. The main results are about existence and uniqueness of such structures.
General expressions are given for the coefficients of Chern forms up to the 13th order in curvature in terms of the Riemann-Christoffel curvature tensor and some of its concomitants (e.g., Pontrjagin's characteristic tensors) for…
We introduce a Grothendieck group $E_n$ for bounded polytopes in $\mathbb R^n$. It differs from the usual Euclidean scissors congruence group in that lower-dimensional polytopes are not ignored. We also define an analogous group $L_n$ using…
A Riemannian metric on a manifold M induces a family of Riemannian metrics on the loop space LM depending on a Sobolev space parameter s. We compute the connection forms of these metrics and the higher symbols of their curvature forms,…
We discuss the general structure of metric geometries, and how metricity implies the complete antisymmetry of Cartan tensor; an application in the frame of Lie group theory is given. Interpretations of the completely antisymmetric torsion…
We discuss in which sense general metric measure spaces possess a first order differential structure. Building on this, we then see that on spaces with Ricci curvature bounded from below a second order calculus can be developed, permitting…
We outline a new geometric method of constructing exact solutions of gravitational field equations parametrized by generic off-diagonal metrics, anholonomic frames and possessing, in general, nontrivial torsion and nonmetricity. The…
Recall that the usual Einstein metrics are those for which the first Ricci contraction of the covariant Riemann curvature tensor is proportional to the metric. Assuming the same type of restrictions but instead on the different contractions…
General Lagrangian theory of even and odd fields on an arbitrary smooth manifold is considered. Its non-trivial reducible gauge symmetries and their algebra are defined in this very general setting by means of the inverse second Noether…
On a smooth, closed Riemannian manifold, we study the question of proportionality of components, also called synchronization, of vector-valued solutions to nonlinear elliptic Schr\"odinger systems with constant coefficients. In particular,…
We study the additivity of various geometric invariants involved in Reimann-Roch type formulas and defined via the trace map. To do so in a general context we prove that given any Grothendieck category A, the derived category D(A) has a…
To explore the properties of space and initial singularities in the context of general relativity, where spacetime becomes poorly defined and no longer belongs to a regular manifold, we examine the evolution of the expansion of timelike…
For a space endowed with a general quadratic multi-time Lagrangian and an associated non-linear connection, the paper constructs the main Riemann-Lagrange distinguished geometric objects (linear connection, torsion and curvature).
The higher rank numerical ranges of generic matrices are described in terms of the components of their Kippenhahn curves. Cases of tridiagonal (in particular, reciprocal) 2-periodic matrices are treated in more detail.
We give a classification theorem for a relevant class of $t$-structures in triangulated categories, which includes in the case of the derived category of a Grothendieck category, the $t$-structures whose hearts have at most $n$ fixed…
