The Newlander-Nirenberg theorem says that a necessary and sufficient condition for the complex coordinates associated with a given almost complex structure tensor $I_M{}^N$ to exist is the vanishing of the Nijenhuis tensor ${\cal…
A tensor -- meaning here a tensor field $\Theta$ of any type $(p,q)$ on a manifold -- may be called integrable if it is parallel relative to some torsion-free connection. We provide analytical and geometric characterizations of…
In this paper we present some approaches to classification of almost complex structures and to construction of local or formal pseudoholomorphic mapping from one almost complex manifold to another. The corresponding criteria are given in…
We use an isomorphism between the space of valence two Killing tensors on an n-dimensional constant sectional curvature manifold and the irreducible GL(n+1)-representation space of algebraic curvature tensors in order to translate the…
The natural bundle $\pi:E\to M$ of almost-complex structures is considered. The action of the pseudogroup of all diffeomorphisms of $M$ on the total space $E$ is investigated. A nontrivial 1-st order differential invariant of this action is…
Geometric structures underlying commutative and non commutative integrable dynamics are analyzed. They lead to a new characterization of noncommutative integrability in terms of spectral properties and of Nijenhuis torsion of an invariant…
We prove that, on a compact almost complex manifold, the space of almost complex structures whose Nijenhuis tensor has rank at least $k$ at every point is either empty or dense in each path-connected component of the space of almost complex…
Let V be a variety of not necessarily associative algebras, and A an inverse limit of nilpotent algebras A_i\in V, such that some finitely generated subalgebra S \subseteq A is dense in A under the inverse limit of the discrete topologies…
We characterize the vanishing of the shifted Courant-Nijenhuis torsion as the strongest tensorial integrability condition that can be imposed on a skew-symmetric endomorphism of the generalized tangent bundle.
All the connections, pure toward the nilpotent structure, are found. Examples of manifolds, for which the curvature tensor is pure or hybrid, are given. For a manifold of B-type a necessary and sufficient condition for purity of the…
We study almost complex structures with lower bounds on the rank of the Nijenhuis tensor. Namely, we show that they satisfy an $h$-principle. As a consequence, all parallelizable manifolds and all manifolds of dimension $2n\geq 10$…
We prove that on any symplectic manifold whose symplectic form represents a rational cohomology class there exists a sequence of compatible almost complex structures whose Nijenhuis energy (the $L^2$-norm of the Nijenhuis tensor) tends to…
Using the general method presented by Mohammedi \cite{NM} for the integrability of a sigma model on a manifold, we investigate the conditions for having an integrable deformation of the general sigma model on a manifold with a complex…
This work is the first, and main, of the series of papers in progress dedicated to Nienhuis operators, i.e., fields of endomorphisms with vanishing Nijenhuis tensor. It serves as an introduction to Nijenhuis Geometry that should be…
Following Sutherland's work on one-dimensional integrable systems we formulate and study its two-dimensional version. Physically it expresses the absence of true 3-body forces among an assembly of N particles leaving exclusively effective…
An associated Nijenhuis tensor of endomorphisms in the tangent bundle is introduced. Special attention is paid to such tensors for an almost hypercomplex structure and the metric of Hermitian-Norden type. There are studied relations between…
We find a minimal differential graded (dg) operad whose generic representations in $R^n$ are in one-to-one correspondence with formal germs of those endomorphisms of the tangent bundle to $R^n$ which satisfy the Nijenhuis integrability…
We consider germs of holomorphic vector fields at a fixed point having a nilpotent linear part at that point, in dimension $n \geq 3$. Based on Belitskii's work, we know that such a vector field is formally conjugate to a (formal) normal…
We give several explicit examples of compact manifolds with a $1$-parameter family of almost complex structures having arbitrarily small Nijenhuis tensor in the $C^0$-norm. The $4$-dimensional examples possess no complex structure, whereas…
We show that a projective variety with an int-amplified endomorphism of degree invertible in the base field satisfies Bott vanishing. This is a new way to analyze which varieties have nontrivial endomorphisms. In particular, we extend some…
