Emphasizing the role of Gerstenhaber algebras and of higher derived brackets in the theory of Lie algebroids, we show that the several Lie algebroid brackets which have been introduced in the recent literature can all be defined in terms of…
In a companion paper, we introduced a notion of multi-Dirac structures, a graded version of Dirac structures, and we discussed their relevance for classical field theories. In the current paper we focus on the geometry of multi-Dirac…
We apply a symmetrization procedure to the setting of Jacobi expansions and study potential spaces in the resulting situation. We prove that the potential spaces of integer orders are isomorphic to suitably defined Sobolev spaces. Among…
In this note we show that given an exact QS-manifold (a natural generalisation of an exact Poisson manifold) one can associate a family of odd Jacobi structures on the same underlying supermanifold.
We reexamine the relation between contact structures on supermanifolds and supersymmetric mechanics in the superspace formulation. This allows one to use the language of contact geometry when dealing with the d = 1, N = 2 super-Poincare…
We generalize to the homotopy case a result of K. Mackenzie and P. Xu on relation between Lie bialgebroids and Poisson geometry. For a homotopy Poisson structure on a supermanifold $M$, we show that $(TM, T^*M)$ has a canonical structure of…
A three-dimensional family of solutions of the Jacobi equations for Poisson systems is characterized. In spite of its general form it is possible the explicit and global determination of its main features, such as the symplectic structure…
In this contribution we review some of the interplay between sigma models in theoretical physics and novel geometrical structures such as Lie (n-)algebroids. The first part of the article contains the mathematical background, the definition…
The quadratic rank two Jacobi algebra is identified from the relations obeyed by the bispectral operators of the two variable Jacobi polynomials orthogonal on the triangle. It is seen to admit as subalgebras Racah and Jacobi algebras of…
Given a polynomial $W$ with an isolated singularity, we can consider the Jacobian ring as an invariant of the singularity. If in addition we have a group action on the polynomial ring with $W$ fixed, we are led to consider the twisted…
A relationship between two old mathematical subjects is observed: the theory of hypergeometric functions and the separability in classical mechanics. Separable potential perturbations of the integrable billiard systems and the Jacobi…
In this paper we develop a geometric version of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation in the Poisson setting. Specifically, we "geometrize" what is usually called a complete solution of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation. We use some well-known results…
The Jacobi identity is the key relation in the definition of a Lie algebra. In the last decade, it also appeared at the heart of the theory of finite type invariants of knots, links and 3-manifolds (and is there called the IHX-relation). In…
We propose new invariants in equivariant birational geometry, combining equivariant intermediate Jacobians and the Burnside formalism, for smooth rationally connected threefolds with actions of finite groups.
We investigate potential spaces associated with Jacobi expansions. We prove structural and Sobolev-type embedding theorems for these spaces. We also establish their characterizations in terms of suitably defined fractional square functions.…
The moduli space of generalized deformations of a Calabi-Yau hypersurface is computed in terms of the Jacobian ring of the defining polynomial. The fibers of the tangent bundle to this moduli space carry algebra structures, which are…
We define and study Jacobians of Hodge structures with weight greater than 1. Jacobians of weight 2 naturally come up in the context of the Brauer group and the Tate conjecture. They were previously studied in a special case by Beauville in…
The main purpose of this paper is to introduce and investigate the notion of Jacobi-Jordan conformal algebra. They are a generalization of Jacobi-Jordan algebras which correspond to the case in which the formal parameter lambda equals 0. We…
For any graded bialgebras $A$ and $B$, we define a commutative graded algebra $A_B$ representing the functor of $B$-representations of $A$. When $A$ is a cocommutative graded Hopf algebra and $B$ is a commutative ungraded Hopf algebra, we…
We explain in some detail the geometric structure of spheres in any dimension. Our approach may be helpful for other homogeneous spaces (with other signatures) such as the de Sitter and anti-de Sitter spaces. We apply the procedure to the…
