Lie n-algebroids and Lie infinity algebroids are usually thought of exclusively in supergeometric or algebraic terms. In this work, we apply the higher derived brackets construction to obtain a geometric description of Lie n-algebroids by…
This work represents a PhD thesis concerning three main topics. The first one deals with the study and applications of Lie systems with compatible geometric structures, e.g. symplectic, Poisson, Dirac, Jacobi, among others. Many new Lie…
In this survey, we discuss a series of linearization problems--for Poisson structures, Lie algebroids, and Lie groupoids. The last problem involves a conjecture on the structure of proper groupoids. Attempting to prove this by the method of…
Lie groupoids and their associated algebroids arise naturally in the study of the constitutive properties of continuous media. Thus, Continuum Mechanics and Differential Geometry illuminate each other in a mutual entanglement of theory and…
In the paper we study the following problem: given a Hamilton-Jacobi equation where the Hamiltonian is convex with respect to the last variable, are there any optimal control problems representing it? In other words, we search for an…

The paper is concerned with mechanical systems which are controlled by implementing a number of time-dependent, frictionless holonomic constraints. The main novelty is due to the presence of additional non-holonomic constraints. We develop…
