In this article, we study compactifications of homogeneous spaces coming from equivariant, open embeddings into a generalized flag manifold $G/P$. The key to this approach is that in each case $G/P$ is the homogeneous model for a parabolic…
The affine connection in a space-time with a maximally symmetric spatial subspace is derived using the properties of maximally symmetric tensors. The number of degrees of freedom in metric-affine gravity is thereby considerably reduced…
$\Gamma$-structures are weak forms of multiplications on closed oriented manifolds. As shown by Hopf the rational cohomology algebras of manifolds admitting $\Gamma$-structures are free over odd degree generators. We prove that this…
We begin the study of completeness of affine connections, especially those on statistical manifolds as well as on affine hypersurfaces. We collect basic facts, prove new theorems and provide examples with remarkable properties.
Classical W-symmetry is globally parametrized by the Grassmannian Manifold which is associated with the non-relativistic fermions. We give the bosonization rule which defines the natural higher coordinates system to describe the W-geometry.…
Let U be a real form of a complex semisimple Lie group, and tau, sigma, a pair of commuting involutions on U. This data corresponds to a reflective submanifold of a symmetric space, U/K. We define an associated integrable system, and…
Left invariant affine structures in a Lie group $G$ are in one-to-one correspondence with left-symmetric algebras over its Lie algebra $\mathfrak g=T_eG$ (``over'' means that the commutator $[x,y]=xy-yx$ coincides with the Lie bracket;…
We consider surfaces embedded in a Riemannian manifold of arbitrary dimension and prove that many aspects of their differential geometry can be expressed in terms of a Poisson algebraic structure on the space of smooth functions of the…
A complete set of mutually unbiased bases for a Hilbert space of dimension N is analogous in some respects to a certain finite geometric structure, namely, an affine plane. Another kind of quantum measurement, known as a symmetric…
We describe all affine maps from a Riemannian manifold to a metric space and all possible image spaces.
It was recently shown that under mild assumptions second-order conformally superintegrable systems can be encoded in a $(0,3)$-tensor, called structure tensor. For abundant systems, this approach led to algebraic integrability conditions…
We endow the set of lattices in Q_p^n with a reasonable algebro-geometric structure. As a result, we prove the representability of affine Grassmannians and establish the geometric Satake correspondence in mixed characteristic. We also give…
Affine Grassmannian has been favored for expressing proximity between lines and planes due to its theoretical exactness in measuring distances among features. Despite this advantage, the existing method can only measure the proximity…
For non-degenerate surfaces in $R^4$, a distinguished transversal bundle called affine normal plane bundle was proposed in [Nomizu-Vrancken]. Lagrangian surfaces have remarkable properties with respect to this normal bundle, like for…
We develop algebraic geometry for general Segal's Gamma-rings and show that this new theory unifies two approaches we had considered earlier on (for a geometry under Spec Z). The starting observation is that the category obtained by gluing…
We describe work on solutions of certain non-divergence type and therefore non-variational elliptic and parabolic systems on manifolds. These systems include Hermitian and affine harmonics which should become useful tools for studying…
A uniform space is a topological space together with some additional structure which allows one to make sense of uniform properties such as completeness or uniform convergence. Motivated by previous work of J. Rivera-Letelier, we give a new…
The question whether a Riemannian manifold is geodesically connected can be studied from geometrical as well as variational methods, and accurate results can be obtained by using the associated distance and related properties of the…
Recent advances in computer vision and machine learning suggest that a wide range of problems can be addressed more appropriately by considering non-Euclidean geometry. In this paper we explore sparse dictionary learning over the space of…
The results of the paper concern the topological structure of complete riemannian manifolds with cyclic holonomy groups and low-dimensional orientable complete flat manifolds. We also discuss related results such as the affine…
