The complex Monge-Amp\`ere equation admits covariant bi-symplectic structure for complex dimension 3, or higher. The first symplectic 2-form is obtained from a new variational formulation of complex Monge- Amp\`ere equation in the framework…
In this paper we consider symplectic and contact Lie algebras. We define contactization and symplectization procedures and describe its main properties. We also give classification of such algebras in dimensions 3 and 4. The classification…
Using Monge-Amp\`ere geometry, we study the singular structure of a class of nonlinear Monge-Amp\`ere equations in three dimensions, arising in geophysical fluid dynamics. We extend seminal earlier work on Monge-Amp\`ere geometry by…

The classes of Monge-Amp\`ere systems, decomposable and bi-decomposable Monge-Amp\`ere systems, including equations for improper affine spheres and hypersurfaces of constant Gauss-Kronecker curvature are introduced. They are studied by the…
For any second-order scalar PDE $\mathcal{E}$ in one unknown function, that we interpret as a hypersurface of a second-order jet space $J^2$, we construct, by means of the characteristics of $\mathcal{E}$, a sub-bundle of the contact…
We describe a family of generalized almost structures associated with a Monge-Amp\`ere equation for a stream function of 2D incompressible fluid flows. Using an indefinite metric field constructed from a pair of $2$-forms related to the…
We complete the list of normal forms for effective 3-forms with constant coefficients with respect to the natural action of symplectomorphisms in \mathbb{R}^6. We show that the 3-form which corresponds to the Special Lagrangian equation is…
We investigate the landscape of generalized geometries that can be derived from Monge-Amp\`ere structures. Instead of following the approaches of Banos, Roubtsov, Kosmann-Schwarzbach, and others, we take a new path inspired by the results…
All second order scalar differential invariants of symplectic hyperbolic and elliptic Monge-Amp\`ere equations with respect to symplectomorphisms are explicitly computed. In particular, it is shown that the number of independent second…
We establish global H\"older estimates for solutions to inhomogeneous linearized Monge-Amp\`ere equations in two dimensions with the right hand side being the divergence of a bounded vector field. These equations arise in the…
Let u be a function of n independent variables x^1, ..., x^n, and U=(u_{ij}) the Hessian matrix of u. The symplectic Monge-Ampere equation is defined as a linear relation among all possible minors of U. Particular examples include the…
We consider a 3rd-order generalized Monge-Ampere equation u_yyy - u_xxy^2 + u_xxx u_xyy = 0 (which is closely related to the associativity equation in the 2-d topological field theory) and describe all integrable structures related to it…
