We prove the existence and uniqueness of Levi-Civita connections for strongly sigma-compatible pseudo-Riemannian metrics on tame differential calculi. Such pseudo-Riemannian metrics properly contain the classes of bilinear metrics as well…
Basic aspects of differential geometry can be extended to various non-classical settings: Lipschitz manifolds, rectifiable sets, sub-Riemannian manifolds, Banach manifolds, Weiner space, etc. Although the constructions differ, in each of…
In this paper, we define (cohomologically) 1-shifted Manin triples and 1-shifted Lie bialgebras, and study their properties. We derive many results that are parallel to those found in ordinary Lie bialgebras, including the double…
We prove that a potential $q$ can be reconstructed from the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map for the Schrodinger operator $-\Delta_g + q$ in a fixed admissible 3-dimensional Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$. We also show that an admissible metric $g$ in…
We construct a vertex coproduct on the Kontsevich--Soibelman cohomological Hall algebra (CoHA) of a quiver with potential, following Joyce (2018). We show it forms a vertex bialgebra. By applying a vertex algebraic analogue of…
We study noncommutative bundles and Riemannian geometry at the semiclassical level of first order in a deformation parameter $\lambda$, using a functorial approach. The data for quantisation of the cotangent bundle is known to be a Poisson…
In this paper after recalling some essential tools concerning the theory of differential forms in the Cartan, Hodge and Clifford bundles over a Riemannian or Riemann-Cartan space or a Lorentzian or Riemann-Cartan spacetime we solve with…
Associated to any (pseudo)-Riemannian manifold $M$ of dimension $n$ is an $n+1$-dimensional noncommutative differential structure $(\Omega^1,\extd)$ on the manifold, with the extra dimension encoding the classical Laplacian as a…
A regular normal parabolic geometry of type $G/P$ on a manifold $M$ gives rise to sequences $D_i$ of invariant differential operators, known as the curved version of the BGG resolution. These sequences are constructed from the normal…
A differential calculus on an associative algebra A is an algebraic analogue of the calculus of differential forms on a smooth manifold. It supplies A with a structure on which dynamics and field theory can be formulated to some extent in…
Cohomological genus-0 Gromov-Witten invariants of a given target space can be encoded by the "descendant potential," a generating function defined on the space of power series in one variable with coefficients in the cohomology space of the…
Nonlinear dimensionality reduction methods provide a valuable means to visualize and interpret high-dimensional data. However, many popular methods can fail dramatically, even on simple two-dimensional manifolds, due to problems such as…
We call the Lie algebra of a Lie group with a left invariant pseudo-Riemannian flat metric pseudo-Riemannian flat Lie algebra. We give a new proof of a classical result of Milnor on Riemannian flat Lie algebras. We reduce the study of…
Here (the last paper in a series of four) we end our presentation of the basics of a systematical approach to the differential geometry of a smooth manifold M (supporting a metric field g and a general connection del) which uses the…
The exterior derivative $d \theta$ of the Lee form $\theta$ of almost Hermitian manifolds is studied. If $\omega$ is the K\"ahler two-form, it is proved that the $\mathbb{R}\omega$-component of $d\theta$ is always zero. expressions for the…
We introduce a positive scalar function $\rho(a, \Omega)$ for a domain $\Omega$ of a complex manifold $X$ with a global holomorphic frame of the cotangent bundle by closed Abelian differentials, which heuristically measure the distance from…
The slightly subtle notion of covariant Lie derivatives of \textit{bundle-valued} differential forms is crucial in many applications in physics, notably in the computation of conserved currents in gauge theories, and yet the literature on…
We consider the derivative $D\pi$ of the projection $\pi$ from a stratum of Abelian or quadratic differentials to Teichm\"uller space. A closed one-form $\eta$ determines a relative cohomology class $[\eta]_\Sigma$, which is a tangent…
We introduce and study module structures on both the dgla of multiplicative vector fields and the graded algebra of functions on Lie groupoids. We show that there is an associated structure of a graded Lie-Rinehart algebra on the vector…
We prove a Koszul formula for the Levi-Civita connection for any pseudo-Riemannian bilinear metric on a class of centered bimodule of noncommutative one-forms. As an application to the Koszul formula, we show that our Levi-Civita connection…
