On a (pseudo-) Riemannian manifold of dimension n > 2, the space of tensors which transform covariantly under Weyl rescalings of the metric is built. This construction is related to a Weyl-covariant operator D whose commutator [D,D] gives…

The theory of connections in Finsler geometry is not satisfactorily established as in Riemannian geometry. Many trials have been carried out to build up an adequate theory. One of the most important in this direction is that of Grifone ([3]…

Let g be a semisimple Lie algebra over the real numbers. We describe an explicit combinatorial construction of the real Weyl group of g with respect to a given Cartan subalgebra. An efficient computation of this Weyl group is important for…

We define a diagram associated to any algebraic connection on a vector bundle on a Zariski open subset of the Riemann sphere, extending the definition of Boalch-Yamakawa to the general case featuring several irregular singularities,…

This paper investigates the transfer of classical geometric structures from a smooth manifold $M$ to its Weil bundle $(M^\mathbf A, \tilde\pi_M, M)$ associated with a Weil algebra $\mathbf A$. We show that various structures including…

For the Riemannian manifold $M^{n}$ two special connections on the sum of the tangent bundle $TM^{n}$ and the trivial one-dimensional bundle are constructed. These connections are flat if and only if the space $M^{n}$ has a constant…

We give a new normalization condition for connections on sub-Riemannian manifolds with constant symbols. The condition is formulated in terms of Cartan connections and depends only on the first degree of homogeneity of the curvature. The…

We extend our program, of coupling theories to scale in order to make their Weyl invariance manifest, to include interacting theories, fermions and supersymmetric theories. The results produce mass terms coinciding with the standard ones…

Conformally recurrent pseudo-Riemannian manifolds of dimension n>4 are investigated. The Weyl tensor is represented as a Kulkarni-Nomizu product. If the square of the Weyl tensor is nonzero, a covariantly constant symmetric tensor is…

We introduce the new algebraic property of Weyl compatibility for symmetric tensors and vectors. It is strictly related to Riemann compatibility, which generalizes the Codazzi condition while preserving much of its geometric implications.…

We develop a noncommutative invariant theory for ordinary linear differential operators on Riemann surfaces. For a monic binomially normalized operator $L=\sum_{k=0}^n {n\choose k}a_kD^{\,n-k}$, $a_0=1$, with coefficients in an associative…

The present paper considers if the new proposed conformal geometrodynamics (CGD) can extend the Nature features compared with general theory of relativity (GTR). The answer for this question can be connected with unique phenomenon arising…

The paper describes a unique phenomenon -- the possibility of establishing, in certain space regions, the one-to-one correspondence between equations related to absolutely different physical phenomena: (1) phenomena associated with the Weyl…

We study the generic band structures of the five-dimensional (5D) Weyl semimetal, in which the band degeneracies are 2D Weyl surfaces in the momentum space, and may have non-trivial linkings with each other if they carry nonzero second…

A mapping between operators on the Hilbert space of $N$-dimensional quantum system and the Wigner quasiprobability distributions defined on the symplectic flag manifold is discussed. The Wigner quasiprobability distribution is constructed…

Let $S$ be a spinor bundle of a pseudo-Euclidean vector bundle $(E,\mathrm{g})$ of even rank. We introduce a new filtration on the algebra $\mathcal{D}(M,S)$ of differential operators on $S$. As main property, the associated graded algebra…

We consider a priori estimates of Weyl's embedding problem of $(\mathbb{S}^2, g)$ in general $3$-dimensional Riemannian manifold $(N^3, \bar g)$. We establish interior $C^2$ estimate under natural geometric assumption. Together with a…

We construct positive-genus analogues of Welschinger's invariants for many real symplectic manifolds, including the odd-dimensional projective spaces and the renowned quintic threefold. In some cases, our invariants provide lower bounds for…

We consider a mimetic type extension of the Weyl geometric gravity theory, by assuming that the metric of the space-time manifold can be parameterized in terms of a scalar field, called the mimetic field. The action of the model is obtained…
