The idea of Lichnerowicz or Morse-Novikov cohomology groups of a manifold has been utilized by many researchers to study important properties and invariants of a manifold. Morse-Novikov cohomology is defined using the differential…
Let $G$ be a connected complex Lie group. A real form of $G$ is a closed subgroup $H\subset G$ whose Lie algebra $\mathfrak{h}$ is a real form of the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ of $G$. A pair $(G,H)$ of this type is reductive, and the…
Harmonic morphisms, maps which preserve Laplace's equation, are intimately connected to the topic of minimal submanifolds. In this article we first characterise harmonic morphisms between Riemannian manifolds as the weakly horizontally…
We develop a Helmholtz-like theorem for differential forms in Euclidean space $E_{n}$ using a uniqueness theorem similar to the one for vector fields. We then apply it to Riemannian manifolds, $R_{n}$, which, by virtue of the…
Let $X$ be a simply connected closed oriented manifold of rationally elliptic homotopy type. We prove that the string topology bracket on the $S^1$-equivariant homology $\overline{H}_{\ast}^{S^1}(\mathcal{L}X,\mathbb{Q}) $ of the free loop…
We study symplectic Laplacians on compact symplectic manifolds with boundary. These Laplacians are associated with symplectic cohomologies of differential forms and can be of fourth-order. We introduce several natural boundary conditions on…
We introduce holed cone structures on 3-manifolds to generalize cone structures. In the same way as a cone structure, a holed cone structure induces the holonomy representation. We consider the deformation space consisting of the holed cone…
The purpose of this paper is to establish several new results about the Hodge theory of Lagrangian fibrations on (not necessarily compact) holomorphic symplectic manifolds. Let $M$ be a holomorphic symplectic manifold of dimension $2n$ that…
We prove that when Hodge theory survives on non-compact symplectic manifolds, a compact symplectic Lie group action having fixed points is necessarily Hamiltonian, provided the associated almost complex structure preserves the space of…
That announcement gives the structure of totally reducible linear Lie algebras which are the Lie algebra of the holonomy group of (at least) one torsion-free connection. The result uses the (already known) classi cation of the irreducible…
We construct a Mixed Hodge Structure on the local complete ring of the representation scheme at the holonomy of a VHS on a compact K\"ahler manifold and prove that the corresponding tautological representation is the holonomy of a VMHS. In…
We propose a reduced constrained Hamiltonian formalism for the exactly soluble $B \wedge F$ theory of flat connections and closed two-forms over manifolds with topology $\Sigma^3 \times (0,1)$. The reduced phase space variables are the…
We show that the Hodge numbers of Sasakian manifolds are invariant under arbitrary deformations of the Sasakian structure. We also present an upper semi continuity Theorem for the dimensions of kernels of a smooth family of transversely…
We develop a general theory for irreducible homogeneous spaces $M= G/H$, in relation to the nullity $\nu$ of their curvature tensor. We construct natural invariant (different and increasing) distributions associated with the nullity, that…
The subgroups of GL(n,R) that act irreducibly on R^n and that can occur as the holonomy of a torsion-free affine connection on an n-manifold are classified, thus completing the work on this subject begun by M. Berger in the 1950s. The…
This is a short presentation of some classical results on finite dimensional complex Lie algebras (classification of nilpotent Lie algebras, deformations and perturbations, contractions and rigidity). We present some applications to…
Let H be a connected reductive group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, and let G be an abstract group. In this note we show that every homomorphism from the Grothendieck semiring of H to that of G which maps…
This article investigates the holonomy groups of K-contact sub-pseudo-Riemannian manifolds. The primary result is a proof that the horizontal holonomy group either coincides with the adapted holonomy group or acts as its normal subgroup of…
We introduce a homothetic extension of classical Weyl integrable geometry by generalizing the usual linear gauge transformations to affine homothetic transformations centered at a distinguished harmonic, scale-invariant form $\alpha_d$.…
In this survey, we review recent developments in extending Hodge theory to differential forms with values in bundles equipped with singular metrics, based on joint work with Ya Deng, Christopher D. Hacon, and Mihai P\u{a}un.
