Using Butz and Moerdijk's topological groupoid representation of a topos with enough points, a `syntax-semantics' duality for geometric theories is constructed. The emphasis is on a logical presentation, starting with a description of the…

This paper deals with complex structures on Lie algebras $\ct_{\pi} \hh=\hh \ltimes_{\pi} V$, where $\pi$ is either the adjoint or the coadjoint representation. The main topic is the existence question of complex structures on $\ct_{\pi}…

We observe that a system of irreducible, fiber-linear, first class constraints on T*M is equivalent to the definition of a foliation Lie algebroid over M. The BFV formulation of the constrained system is given by the Hamiltonian lift of the…

Two new classes of metrizable vector bundles have been presented in the papers [1] and [4]. The Lie algebroid generalized tangent bundle of a dual vector bundle is presented. This Lie algebroid is a new example of metrizable vector bundle.…

Let $G$ be an adjoint quasi-simple group defined and split over a non-archimedean local field $K$. We prove that the dual of the Steinberg representation of $G$ is isomorphic to a certain space of harmonic cochains on the Bruhat-Tits…

*Caveat: we learned post-factum that most of these results are not novel. We are keeping this paper for continuity reasons.* Given finite-dimensional complex representations $V$ and $V'$ of a simply-connected semisimple compact Lie group…

Given a locally compact quantum group $\mathbb G$, we study the structure of completely bounded homomorphisms $\pi:L^1(\mathbb G)\rightarrow\mathcal B(H)$, and the question of when they are similar to $\ast$-homomorphisms. By analogy with…

We study the adjoint and coadjoint representations of a class of Lie group including the Euclidean group. Despite the fact that these representations are not in general isomorphic, we show that there is a geometrically defined bijection…

Let $\mathbb{X}=[X_1\rightrightarrows X_0]$ be a Lie groupoid equipped with a connection, given by a smooth distribution $\mathcal{H} \subset T X_1$ transversal to the fibers of the source map. Under the assumption that the distribution…

There is a well-known correspondence between the symplectic variety of representations of the fundamental group of a punctured Riemann surface into a compact Lie group G, with fixed conjugacy classes at the punctures, and a complex variety…

In this paper we develop a general representation theory for mv-algebras. We furnish the appropriate categorical background to study this problem. Our guide line is the theory of classifying topoi of coherent extensions of universal algebra…

This work is a spin-off of an on-going programme which aims at revisiting the original studies of Lie and Cartan on pseudogroups and geometric structures from a modern perspective. We encode geometric structures induced by transitive Lie…

We compute the equivariant complex K-theory ring of a cohomogeneity-one action of a compact Lie group at the level of generators and relations and derive a characterization of K-theoretic equivariant formality for these actions. Less…

In this paper, the structure of cocommutative vertex bialgebras is investigated. For a general vertex bialgebra $V$, it is proved that the set $G(V)$ of group-like elements is naturally an abelian semigroup, whereas the set $P(V)$ of…

We study string topology for classifying spaces of connected compact Lie groups, drawing connections with Hochschild cohomology and equivariant homotopy theory. First, for a compact Lie group $G$, we show that the string topology…

A Lie groupoid, called \textit{second-order non-holonomic material Lie groupoid}, is associated in a natural way to any Cosserat media. This groupoid is used to give a new definition of homogeneity which does not depend on a reference…

We approach Mackenzie's LA-groupoids from a supergeometric point of view by introducing Q-groupoids, which are groupoid objects in the category of Q-manifolds. There is a faithful functor from the category of LA-groupoids to the category of…

Let $\mathscr N$ be a 2-step nilpotent Lie algebra endowed with non-degenerate scalar product $\langle.\,,.\rangle$ and let $\mathscr N=V\oplus_{\perp}Z$, where $Z$ is the centre of the Lie algebra and $V$ its orthogonal complement with…

Given a G-structure with connection satisfying a regularity assumption we associate to it a classifying Lie algebroid. This algebroid contains all the information about the equivalence problem and is an example of a G-structure Lie…

We define the Hochschild (co)homology of a ringed space relative to a locally free Lie algebroid. Our definitions mimic those of Swan and Caldararu for an algebraic variety. We show that our (co)homology groups can be computed using…
