This note examines the geometry behind the Hamiltonian structure of isomonodromy deformations of connections on vector bundles over Riemann surfaces. The main point is that one should think of an open set of the moduli of pairs $(V,\nabla)$…

We study the non-diffusive Westervelt equation in the weakly nonlinear regime. We show that the leading profile equation is of Burgers' type. We show that a compactly supported nonlinearity $\alpha$ can be reconstructed from the tilt of the…

Discrete linear Weingarten surfaces in space forms are characterized as special discrete $\Omega$-nets, a discrete analogue of Demoulin's $\Omega$-surfaces. It is shown that the Lie-geometric deformation of $\Omega$-nets descends to a…

Vector fields and line fields, their counterparts without orientations on tangent lines, are familiar objects in the theory of dynamical systems. Among the techniques used in their study, the Morse--Smale decomposition of a (generic) field…

New splitting theorems in a semi-Riemannian manifold which admits an irrotational vector field (not necessarily a gradient) with some suitable properties are obtained. According to the extras hypothesis assumed on the vector field, we can…

It has been more than a century since first Lorentz and later Einstein explored relativistic events and still important consequences of that remains unclear to everybody. The present study extensively focus on Lorentz (Length) contraction…

Coupled Ginzburg-Landau equations appear in a variety of contexts involving instabilities in oscillatory media. When the relevant unstable mode is of vectorial character (a common situation in nonlinear optics), the pair of coupled…

The kinematical part of general theory of deformational structures on smooth manifolds is developed. We introduce general concept of d-objects deformation, then within the set of all such deformations we develop some special algebra and…

We introduce a phenomenological theory of dislocation motion appropriate for two dimensional lattices. A coarse grained description is proposed that involves as primitive variables local lattice rotation and Burgers vector densities along…

In this work we define a deformation theory for the Coupled K\"ahler-Yang-Mills equations in arXiv:1102.0991, generalizing work of Sz\'ekelyhidi on constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metrics. We use the theory to find new solutions of the…

Dislocations are topological defects known to be crucial in the onset of plasticity and in many properties of crystals. Classical Elasticity still fails to fully explain their dynamics under extreme conditions of high strain gradients and…

In this thesis, I investigate how to construct a self-consistent model of deformed general relativity using canonical methods and metric variables. The specific deformation of general covariance is predicted by some studies into loop…

This paper develops a geometrical model of dislocations and disclinations in single crystals at the mesoscopic scale. In the continuation of previous work the distribution theory is used to represent concentrated effects in the defect lines…

We examine deformed Poincar\'e algebras containing the exact Lorentz algebra. We impose constraints which are necessary for defining field theories on these algebras and we present simple field theoretical examples. Of particular interest…

A cohomology theory of weighted Rota-Baxter $3$-Lie algebras is introduced. Formal deformations, abelian extensions, skeletal weighted Rota-Baxter $3$-Lie 2-algebras and crossed modules of weighted Rota-Baxter 3-Lie algebras are interpreted…

Inspired by the work of Wang and Zhou [4] for Rota-Baxter algebras, we develop a cohomology theory of Rota-Baxter systems and justify it by interpreting the lower degree cohomology groups as formal deformations and as abelian extensions of…

The purpose of the present paper is to investigate cohomologies and deformations of weighted Rota-Baxter Lie algebras as well as weighted Rota-Baxter associative algebras with derivations. First we introduce a notion of weighted Rota-Baxter…

This paper deals with the introduction of a decomposition of the deformations of curved thin beams, with section of order $\delta$, which takes into account the specific geometry of such beams. A deformation $v$ is split into an elementary…

We propose defect lines as a useful tool to study bulk perturbations of conformal field theories, in particular to analyse the induced renormalisation group flows of boundary conditions. As a concrete example we investigate bulk…

We study deformations of plane curves in the similarity geometry. It is known that continuous deformations of smooth curves are described by the Burgers hierarchy. In this paper, we formulate the discrete deformation of discrete plane…
