Geometric (Clifford) algebra provides an efficient mathematical language for describing physical problems. We formulate general relativity in this language. The resulting formalism combines the efficiency of differential forms with the…
We introduce the notion of Glanon groupoids, which are Lie groupoids equipped with multiplicative generalized complex structures. It combines symplectic groupoids, holomorphic Lie groupoids and holomorphic Poisson groupoids into a unified…
In the first part of this paper we begin the study of polysymplectic manifolds, and of their relationship with PDE's. This notion provides a generalization of symplectic manifolds which is very well suited for the geometric study of PDE's…
A novel gravity theory based on Poisson Generalized Geometry is investigated. A gravity theory on a Poisson manifold equipped with a Riemannian metric is constructed from a contravariant version of the Levi-Civita connection, which is based…
In this thesis we study geometric structures from Poisson and generalized complex geometry with mild singular behavior using Lie algebroids. The process of lifting such structures to their Lie algebroid version makes them less singular, as…
We generalize the classical Fisher information metric on statistical models to $L^p$-metrics on various spaces of differential forms or group of diffeomorphisms. Using this new interpretation from information geometry, we derive several new…

We define the notion of Y-algebroids, generalising the Lie, Courant, and exceptional algebroids that have been used to capture the local symmetry structure of type II string theory and M-theory compactifications to $D \geq 5$ dimensions.…
Recently, in [18] the authors gave some results on the structure, capability and the Schur multiplier of generalized Heisenberg Lie superalgebra. In this work we try to extend these concepts to the case of generalized Heisenberg Lie…
On a symplectic manifold a family of generalized Poisson brackets associated with powers of the symplectic form is studied. The extreme cases are related to the Hamiltonian and Liouville dynamics. It is shown that the Dirac brackets can be…
We investigate exceptional generalised diffeomorphisms based on $E_{8(8)}$ in a geometric setting. The transformations include gauge transformations for the dual gravity field. The surprising key result, which allows for a development of a…
We construct a first order local model for Poisson manifolds around a large class of Poisson submanifolds and we give conditions under which this model is a local normal form. The resulting linearization theorem includes as special cases…
This talk introduces a Cartan-geometric framework for generalised geometries governed by a differential graded Lie algebra. In contrast to ordinary Cartan geometry, the tangent bundle is extended and qu both a global duality group and a…
Two-dimensional (2,2) supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models can be described in (2,2), (2,1) or (1,1) superspaces. Each description emphasizes different aspects of generalized K\"ahler geometry. We investigate the reduction from (2,2) to…
We introduce a plethora of skew algebroids on twistor spaces and describe the corresponding foliations. In a forthcoming paper, we use these algebroids to derive results about bihermitian manifolds, also known as generalized Kahler…
We construct a generalized cluster structure compatible with the Poisson bracket on the Drinfeld double of the standard Poisson-Lie group $GL_n$ and derive from it a generalized cluster structure on $GL_n$ compatible with the push-forward…
In this paper, ideas of open ball, closed ball, compact set are introduced and some related basic properties are studied. Some topological properties and some other well known results of metric spaces including Cantor intersection theorem…
The aim of the present paper is to construct and investigate a Finsler structure within the framework of a Generalized Absolute Parallelism space (GAP-space). The Finsler structure is obtained from the vector fields forming the…
The twistor construction for Riemannian manifolds is extended to the case of manifolds endowed with generalized metrics (in the sense of generalized geometry \`a la Hitchin). The generalized twistor space associated to such a manifold is…
This note gives an overview on the construction of symplectic groupoids as reduced phase spaces of Poisson sigma models and its generalization in the infinite dimensional setting (before reduction).
