We set up a formalism of Maurer-Cartan moduli sets for L-infinity algebras and associated twistings based on the closed model category structure on formal differential graded algebras (a.k.a. differential graded coalgebras). Among other…

We introduce the notion of a Lie algebroid structure on an affine bundle whose base manifold is fibred over the real numbers. It is argued that this is the framework which one needs for coming to a time-dependent generalization of the…

Let G be a finitely connected Lie group and let K be a maximal compact subgroup. Let M be a cocompact G-proper manifold with boundary, endowed with a G-invariant metric which is of product type near the boundary. Under additional…

Since they were introduced in the 1990s, Lie group integrators have become a method of choice in many application areas. These include multibody dynamics, shape analysis, data science, image registration and biophysical simulations. Two…

We formulate path integrals on any Riemannian manifold which admits the action of a compact Lie group by isometric transformations. We consider a path integral on a Riemannian manifold M on which a Lie group G acts isometrically. Then we…

We introduce and study a general pseudodifferential calculus for boundary value problems on a class of non-compact manifolds with boundary (so-called Lie manifolds with boundary). This is accomplished by constructing a suitable…

Given any K\"ahler manifold $X$, Kapranov discovered an $L_\infty[1]$ algebra structure on $\Omega^{0,\bullet}_X(T^{1,0}_X)$. Motivated by this result, we introduce, as a generalization of $L_\infty[1]$ algebras, a notion of $L_\infty[1]$…

We consider solutions of Lagrangian variational problems with linear constraints on the derivative. These solutions are given by curves $\gamma$ in a differentiable manifold $M$ that are everywhere tangent to a smooth distribution $\mathcal…

Differentiating an Lie $n$-groupoid via the differential-geometric fat point a priori only yielads a presheaf of graded manifolds. In this article we prove that this presheaf is representable by the tangent complex of the Lie $n$-groupoid.…

The simplest case of a manifold with singularities is a manifold M with boundary, together with an identification of the boundary with a product M1 x P, where P is a fixed manifold. The associated singular space is obtained by collapsing P…

Integration by parts plays a crucial role in mathematical analysis, e.g., during the proof of necessary optimality conditions in the calculus of variations and optimal control. Motivated by this fact, we construct a new, right-weighted…

A flux formulation of Double Field Theory on group manifold is derived and applied to study generalized Scherk-Schwarz compactifications, which give rise to a bosonic subsector of half-maximal, electrically gauged supergravities. In…

The rational homotopy type of a differential graded algebra (DGA) can be represented by a family of tensors on its cohomology, which constitute an $A_\infty$-minimal model of this DGA. When only the cohomology is needed to determine the…

We introduce a general definition of higher-form connections on principal $\infty$-bundles in differential geometry. This is achieved by developing the formal differentiation and integration of maps from smooth manifolds to derived stacks…

Let M be a smooth manifold and $\Phi$ a differential 1-form on M with values in the tangent bundle TM. We construct canonical solutions $e_\Phi$ of Maurer-Cartan equation in the DGLA of graded derivations D*(M) of differential forms on M by…

We use the reflection group trick to glue manifolds with corners that are Borel-Serre compactifications of locally symmetric spaces of noncompact type and obtain aspherical manifolds. We call these \emph{piecewise locally symmetric}…

Given a finite type degree-wise nilpotent $L_\infty$-algebra, we construct an abelian group that acts on the set of Maurer-Cartan elements of the given $L_\infty$-algebra so that the quotient by this action becomes the moduli space of…

Given a nilpotent Lie group $N$, a compact subgroup $K$ of automorphisms of $N$ and an irreducible unitary representation $(\tau,W_\tau)$ of $K$, we study conditions on $\tau$ for the commutativity of the algebra of…

The standard (Berezin-Toeplitz) geometric quantization of a compact Kaehler manifold is restricted by integrality conditions. These restrictions can be circumvented by passing to the universal covering space, provided that the lift of the…

Let $S$ be a spinor bundle of a pseudo-Euclidean vector bundle $(E,\mathrm{g})$ of even rank. We introduce a new filtration on the algebra $\mathcal{D}(M,S)$ of differential operators on $S$. As main property, the associated graded algebra…
