This is a tutorial introduction to the representation theory of SU(2) with emphasis on the occurrence of Jacobi polynomials in the matrix elements of the irreducible representations. The last section traces the history of the insight that…

In the theory of so called "Covariant Quantum Mechanics" a basic role is played by Hermitian vector fields on a complex line bundle in the frameworks of Galilei and Einstein spacetimes. In fact, it has been proved that the Lie algebra of…

Let $M$ be a real hypersurface in complex projective space. The almost contact metric structure on $M$ allows us to consider, for any nonnull real number $k$, the corresponding $k$-th generalized Tanaka-Webster connection on $M$ and,…

In this text we give a decomposition result on polynomial poly-vector fields generalizing a result on the decomposition of homogeneous Poisson structures. We discuss consequences of this decomposition result in particular for low dimensions…

We realize the infinitesimal Abel-Jacobi map as a morphism of formal deformation theories, realized as a morphism in the homotopy category of differential graded Lie algebras. The whole construction is carried out in a general setting, of…

The geometric approach [1312.1262] to iterated variations of local functionals -- e.g., of the (master-)action functional -- resulted in an extension of the deformation quantisation technique to the set-up of Poisson models of field theory…

A hierarchy of matrix-valued polynomials which generalize the Jacobi polynomials is found. Defined by a Rodrigues formula, they are also products of a sequence of differential operators. Each class of polynomials is complete, satisfies a…

We associate a Jacobi form over a rank s lattice to N=2, D=4 heterotic string compactifications which have s Wilson lines at a generic point in the vector multiplet moduli space. Jacobi forms of index m=1 and m=2 have appeared earlier in…

Let $\mathcal{N}$ be the space of Gaussian distribution functions over $\mathbb{R}$, regarded as a 2-dimensional statistical manifold parameterized by the mean $\mu$ and the deviation $\sigma$. In this paper we show that the tangent bundle…

We construct real Jacobi forms with matrix index using path integrals. The path integral expressions represent elliptic genera of two-dimensional N=(2,2) supersymmetric theories. They arise in a family labeled by two integers N and k which…

In this paper we discuss a general framework based on symplectic geometry for the study of second order conditions in constrained variational problems on curves. Using the notion of L-derivatives we construct Jacobi curves, which represent…

The purpose of this paper is to describe explicitly the modules of (Siegel-)Jacobi forms of degree two of index one of any scalar valued weight with respect to some congruence subgroups of small levels $N\leq 4$. Such a structure for the…

In our previous paper [International Journal of Theoretical Physics, 41 (2002), 1165-1190] we have shown, following the tradition of synthetic differential geometry, that div and rot are uniquely determined, so long as we require that the…

We show that many existing divisibility sequences can be seen as sequences of determinants of matrix divisibility sequences, which arise naturally as Jacobian matrices associated to groups of maps on affine spaces.

We discuss some properties of Jacobi fields that do not involve assumptions on the curvature endomorphism. We compare indices of different spaces of Jacobi fields and give some applications to Riemannian geometry.

The notions of idempotental identities and axial identities of axial algebras are introduced, in order to understand better some theorems of J.~Desmet, I.~Gorshkov, S.~Shpectorov, and A.~Staroletov about solid subalgebras; this approach…

We discuss the integrability of Jacobi manifolds by contact groupoids, and then look at what the Jacobi point of view brings new into Poisson geometry. In particular, using contact groupoids, we prove a Kostant-type theorem on the…

The Lagrange identity expresses the second derivative of the moment of inertia of a system of material points through kinetic energy and homogeneous potential energy, from which follows the Jacobi well-known result on the instability of a…

This paper shows how the forms of gauge theory, Hamiltonian mechanics and quantum mechanics arise from a non-commutative framework for calculus and differential geometry. Discrete calculus is seen to fit into this pattern by reformulating…

Using the adjoint representations of Lie algebras, we classify all Jacobi structures on real two- and three-dimensional Lie groups. Also, we study Jacobi-Lie systems on these real low-dimensional Lie groups. Our results are illustrated…
