It is shown that any second order dynamic equation on a configuration bundle $Q\to R$ of non-relativistic mechanics is equivalent to a geodesic equation with respect to a (non-linear) connection on the tangent bundle $TQ\to Q$. The case of…
A fibre bundle viewpoint of gauge field theories is reviewed with focus on a possible quantum interpretation. The fundamental quantum properties of non-separability of state spaces is considered in the context of defining the connection on…
We define and study a certain category of vector bundles on a p-adic curve to which we can associate in a functorial way finite dimensional p-adic representations of the geometric fundamental group. Among other things we investigate two…
Special kinds of rank 2 vector bundles with (possibly irregular) connections on P^1 are considered. We construct an equivalence between the derived category of quasi-coherent sheaves on the moduli stack of such bundles and the derived…
Base of fibered correspondence is arbitrary correspondence. Fibered correspondence is interesting when we consider relationship between different bundles. However composition of fibered correspondences may not always be defined. Reduced…
In contrast with QFT, classical field theory can be formulated in a strict mathematical way if one defines even classical fields as sections of smooth fiber bundles. Formalism of jet manifolds provides the conventional language of dynamic…
In the first part of the paper we define a perturbative (pre-formal) geometry and formulate a theorem on the relation between the construction of a perturbative neighborhood of affine varieties and the higher tangent bundles. In the second…
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…
When families of quantum systems are equipped with a continuous family of Hamiltonians such that there is a gap in the common spectrum one can define a notion of a Berry connection. In this note we stress that, in general, since the Hilbert…
This paper review one construction of Frobenius manifolds (and slightly weaker structures). It splits it into several steps and discusses the freedom and the constraints in these steps. The steps pass through holomorphic bundles with…
The paper introduces the notion of \Gamma-linear connection \nabla on the 1-jet fibre bundle J^1(T,M), and presents its local components. We also describe the local Ricci and Bianchi identities of $\nabla$.
The notion of an odd quasi-connection on a supermanifold, which is loosely an affine connection that carries non-zero Grassmann parity, is examined. Their torsion and curvature are defined, however, in general, they are not tensors. A…
We examine the heap of linear connections on anchored vector bundles and Lie algebroids. Naturally, this covers the example of affine connections on a manifold. We present some new interpretations of classical results via this ternary…
In this work, generalized principal bundles modelled by Lie group bundle actions are investigated. In particular, the definition of equivariant connections in these bundles, associated to Lie group bundle connections, is provided, together…
The present paper is devoted to some results concerning with the complete lifts of an almost complex structure and a connection in a manifold to its (0,q)-tensor bundle along the corresponding cross-section.
We introduce and study the notion of contact dual pair adopting a line bundle approach to contact and Jacobi geometry. A contact dual pair is a pair of Jacobi morphisms defined on the same contact manifold and satisfying a certain…
Jet classification in high-energy particle physics is important for understanding fundamental interactions and probing phenomena beyond the Standard Model. Jets originate from the fragmentation and hadronization of quarks and gluons, and…
We review the concept of a graded bundle, which is a generalisation of a vector bundle, its linearisation, and a double structure of this kind. We then present applications of these structures in geometric mechanics including systems with…
One can imagine a number of mechanisms that could be the cause of brighter/fainter segments of jets. In a sense, jets might be easier to understand if they were featureless. However we observe a wide variety of structures which we call…
We characterize the existence of horizontal path lifts for general connections on arbitrary fiber bundles with a new property that also gives fresh insight into linear and $G$-connections.
