Tractors and Twistors bundles both provide natural conformally covariant calculi on $4D$-Riemannian manifolds. They have different origins but are closely related, and usually constructed bottom-up through prolongation of defining…
A nonstandard invariant fourth order operator acting on functions on a manifold equipped with an almost Grassmannian structure with an arbitrary trorsion is found by means of the curved translation principle. This operator can be viewed as…
We look at several problems in even dimensional conformal geometry based around the de Rham complex. A leading and motivating problem is to find a conformally invariant replacement for the usual de Rham harmonics. An obviously related…
On conformal manifolds of even dimension $n\geq 4$ we construct a family of new conformally invariant differential complexes. Each bundle in each of these complexes appears either in the de Rham complex or in its dual. Each of the new…
In this paper we develop the generalised Schur theory offered in the recent paper by the second author in dimension one case, and apply it to obtain a new explicit parametrisation of torsion free rank one sheaves on projective irreducible…
Let M be a manifold and g a Lie algebra acting on M. Differential forms Omega(M) carry a natural action of Lie derivatives L(x) and contractions I(x) of fundamental vector fields for x \in g. Contractions (anti-) commute with each other,…
The main objective of this paper is twofold. One is to classify and construct $SL(3,\mathbb{R})$-intertwining differential operators between vector bundles over the real projective space $\mathbb{RP}^2$. It turns out that two kinds of…
We give in this paper which is the fifth in a series of eight a theory of covariant derivatives of multivector and extensor fields based on the geometric calculus of an arbitrary smooth manifold M, and the notion of a connection extensor…
The algorithm for inverting covariant exterior derivative is provided. It works for a sufficiently small star-shaped region of a fibered set - a local subset of a vector bundle and associated vector bundle. The algorithm contains some…
The realization of tractor bundles as associated bundles in conformal geometry is studied. It is shown that different natural choices of principal bundle with normal Cartan connection corresponding to a given conformal manifold can give…
For curved projective manifolds we introduce a notion of a normal tractor frame field, based around any point. This leads to canonical systems of (redundant) coordinates that generalise the usual homogeneous coordinates on projective space.…
This is an expanded version of a series of two lectures given at the IMA summer program "Symmetries and Overdetermined Systems of Partial Differential Equations". The main part of the article describes the Riemannian version of the…
In recent development of double field theory, as for the description of the massless sector of closed strings, the spacetime dimension is formally doubled, i.e. from D to D+D, and the T-duality is realized manifestly as a global O(D,D)…
The comprehensive generalization of summation-by-parts of Del Rey Fern\'andez et al.\ (J. Comput. Phys., 266, 2014) is extended to approximations of second derivatives with variable coefficients. This enables the construction of…
We give a simple construction of the Bernstein-Gelfand-Gelfand sequences of natural differential operators on a manifold equipped with a parabolic geometry. This method permits us to define the additional structure of a bilinear…
We develop a combinatorial theory of vector bundles with connection on locally ordered simplicial complexes. This is a first step towards a discrete exterior calculus for bundle-valued forms. The basic building block is the discrete…
Manifolds endowed with a parabolic geometry in the sense of Cartan come with natural sequences of differential operators and their analysis provide the so called (curved) BGG sequence of {\v C}ap, Slov{\'a}k and Sou{\v c}ek. The sequences…
A set of differential operators acting by continuous deformations on path dependent functionals of open and closed curves is introduced. Geometrically, these path operators are interpreted as infinitesimal generators of curves in the base…

Let $H$ be a complex separable Hilbert space and $B(H)$ the algebra of all bounded linear operators on $H$. In this paper, we give considerable generalizations of the inequalities for norms of commutators of normal operators. Let $S, T \in…
