We study twisted Jacobi manifolds, a concept that we had introduced in a previous Note. Twisted Jacobi manifolds can be characterized using twisted Dirac-Jacobi, which are sub-bundles of Courant-Jacobi algebroids. We show that each twisted…
We reformulate the notion of a Jacobi algebroid in terms of weighted odd Jacobi brackets. We then show how a Jacobi algebroid can be understood in terms of a kind of curved Q-manifold. In particular the homological condition on the odd…
We extend the Jacobi structure from $TQ\times \mathbb{R}$ and $T^{*}Q \times \mathbb{R}$ to $A\times \mathbb{R}$ and $A^{*}\times \mathbb{R}$, respectively, where $A$ is a Lie algebroid and $A^{*}$ carries the associated Poisson structure.…
We consider the problem of embedding eigenvalues into the essential spectrum of periodic Jacobi operators, using an oscillating, decreasing potential. To do this we employ a geometric method, previously used to embed eigenvalues into the…
We define an almost--cosymplectic--contact structure which generalizes cosymplectic and contact structures of an odd dimensional manifold. Analogously, we define an almost--coPoisson--Jacobi structure which generalizes a Jacobi structure.…
A Hamilton-Jacobi theory for general dynamical systems, defined on fibered phase spaces, has been recently developed. In this paper we shall apply such a theory to contact Hamiltonian systems, as those appearing in thermodynamics and on…
We show that if a manifold M admits a contact structure, then so does M\times S^2. Our proof relies on surgery theory, a theorem of Eliashberg on contact surgery and a theorem of Bourgeois showing that if M admits a contact structure then…
The standard formulation of Jacobi manifolds in terms of differential operators on line bundles, although effective at capturing most of the relevant geometric features, lacks a clear algebraic interpretation similar to how Poisson algebras…
In this paper we introduce a new subspace of Jacobi forms of higher degree via certain relations among Fourier coefficients. We prove that this space can also be characterized by duality properties of certain distinguished embedded Hecke…
It is well known that the Jacobi operators completely determine the curvature tensor. The question of existence of a curvature tensor for given Jacobi operators naturally arises, which is considered and solved in the previous work.…
The global structure of the spectrum of periodic non-Hermitian Jacobi operators is described by the discriminant and its stationary points. We also give necessary and sufficient conditions for real spectrum and single interval spectrum.
Jacobi's elliptic functions have been constructed from a deformed Lie algebra. The generators of the algebra have been obtained from a bi-orthogonal system. The deformation parameter resembles the modulus of the relevant elliptic functions.
We describe an interesting relation between Lie 2-algebras, the Kac-Moody central extensions of loop groups, and the group $\mathrm{String}(n)$. A Lie 2-algebra is a categorified version of a Lie algebra where the Jacobi identity holds up…
The formulation of covariant brackets on the space of solutions to a variational problem is analyzed in the framework of contact geometry. It is argued that the Poisson algebra on the space of functionals on fields should be read as a…
Newly introduced generalized Poisson structures based on suitable skew-symmetric contravariant tensors of even order are discussed in terms of the Schouten-Nijenhuis bracket. The associated `Jacobi identities' are expressed as conditions on…
A Koszul-Vinberg manifold is a generalization of a Hessian manifold, and their relation is similar to the relation between Poisson manifolds and symplectic manifolds. Koszul-Vinberg structures and Poisson structures on manifolds extend to…
In this paper we define Grassmann odd analogues of Jacobi structures on supermanifolds. We then examine their potential use in the Batalin-Vilkovisky formalism of classical gauge theories.
New generalized Poisson structures are introduced by using suitable skew-symmetric contravariant tensors of even order. The corresponding `Jacobi identities' are provided by conditions on these tensors, which may be understood as cocycle…
The suggested operator manifold formalism enables to develop an approach to the unification of the geometry and the field theory. We also elaborate the formalism of operator multimanifold yielding the multiworld geometry involving the…
Periodic Jacobi operators naturally arise in numerous applications, forming a cornerstone in various fields. The spectral theory associated with these operators boasts an extensive body of literature. Considered as discretized counterparts…
