Based on the Euler-Lagrange cohomology groups $H_{EL}^{(2k-1)}({\cal M}^{2n}) (1 \leqslant k\leqslant n)$ on symplectic manifold $({\cal M}^{2n}, \omega)$, their properties and a kind of classification of vector fields on the manifold, we…

We prove under a weak smoothness condition that two Riemannian manifold are isomorphic if and only there exists an order isomorphism which intertwines with the Dirichlet type heat semigroups on the manifolds.

To every closed subset $X$ of a symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$ we associate a natural group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms $Ham(X,\omega)$. We equip this group with a semi-norm $\Vert\cdot\Vert^{X,\omega}$, generalizing the Hofer norm. We…

We study the exponential maps induced by Sobolev type right-invariant (weak) Riemannian metrics of order $k\ge1$ on the Lie group of smooth, orientation preserving diffeomorphisms of the circle. We prove that each of them defines an {\em…

The \emph{flat deformation theorem} states that given a semi-Riemannian analytic metric $g$ on a manifold, locally there always exists a two-form $F$, a scalar function $c$, and an arbitrarily prescribed scalar constraint depending on the…

We study left-invariant Killing $k$-forms on simply connected $2$-step nilpotent Lie groups endowed with a left-invariant Riemannian metric. For $k=2,3$, we show that every left-invariant Killing $k$-form is a sum of Killing forms on the…

In this paper we use a diffeo-geometric framework based on manifolds that are locally modeled on "convenient" vector spaces to study the geometry of some infinite dimensional spaces. Given a finite dimensional symplectic manifold…

We extend the adiabatic limit formula for eta-invariants by Bismut-Cheeger and Dai to Seifert fibrations. Our formula contains a new contribution from the singular fibres that takes the form of a generalised Dedekind sum. As an application,…

An Hermitian bounded symmetric domain in a complex vector space, given in its circled realization, is endowed with two natural symplectic forms: the flat form and the hyperbolic form. In a similar way, the ambient vector space is also…

We endow the diffeomorphism group of a paracompact (reduced) orbifold with the structure of an infinite dimensional Lie group modelled on the space of compactly supported sections of the tangent orbibundle. For a second countable orbifold,…

In this short note, we prove that a bi-invariant Riemannian metric on $\mathrm{Sp}(n)$ is uniquely determined by the spectrum of its Laplace-Beltrami operator within the class of left-invariant metrics on $\mathrm{Sp}(n)$. In other words,…

We give a sufficient condition on nonlinearities of an SDE on a compact connected Riemannian manifold $M$ which implies that laws of all solutions converge weakly to the normalized Riemannian volume measure on $M$. This result is further…
