Logarithmic and $b$-tangent bundles provide a versatile framework for addressing singularities in geometry. Introduced by Deligne and Melrose, these modified bundles resolve singularities by reframing singular vector fields as well-behaved…
The natural bundle $\pi:E\to M$ of almost-complex structures is considered. The action of the pseudogroup of all diffeomorphisms of $M$ on the total space $E$ is investigated. A nontrivial 1-st order differential invariant of this action is…
In this short review article we sketch some developments which should ultimately lead to the analogy of the Chern-Weil homomorphism for principal bundles in the realm of non-commutative differential geometry. Principal bundles there should…
In Moebius geometry there are two important tensors associated to an umbilic-free immersion $f:M^{n}\to \mathbb{S}^{m}$, namely the Moebius metric $\langle \cdot, \cdot \rangle^{*}$ and the Moebius second fundamental form $\beta$. In [11]…

The homotopy groups of the (stabilized) group of invertible pseudodifferential operators of order zero acting on a closed manifold X are computed in terms of the K-theory of the cosphere bundle S*X. At the same time, we show that the…
We study the index theory of hypoelliptic operators on Carnot manifolds -- manifolds whose Lie algebra of vector fields is equipped with a filtration induced from sub-bundles of the tangent bundle. A Heisenberg pseudodifferential operator,…
A constructive approach to differential calculus on quantum principal bundles is presented. The calculus on the bundle is built in an intrinsic manner, starting from given graded (differential) *-algebras representing horizontal forms on…
Let $S$ be a normal base scheme. The aim of this paper is to study the line bundles on 1-motives defined over $S$. We first compute a d\'evissage of the Picard group of a 1-motive $M$ according to the weight filtration of $M$. This…
We introduce a family of algebras $\mathcal{A}_{M,N}$, $M,N\in\mathbb{Z}$, as an extension of a pair of commuting quantum toroidal $\mathfrak{gl}_1$ subalgebras $\mathcal{E}_1,\check{\mathcal{E}}_1$, wherein the parameters are tuned in a…
Let f : Y -> X be a morphism of complex projective manifolds, and let F be a subsheaf of the tangent bundle which is closed under the Lie bracket, but not necessarily a foliation. This short paper contains an elementary and very geometric…
We take advantage of the principal bundle geometry of the space of connections to obtain general results on the presymplectic structure of two classes of (pure) gauge theories: invariant theories, and non-invariant theories satisfying two…
