We outline an alternative approach to the geometric notion of a saddle point for real-valued functions of two variables. It is argued that this is more natural compared to the usual treatment of this topic in standard texts on Calculus.

In an earlier paper we constructed a Cartier divisor on the theta divisor of a principally polarised abelian variety whose support is precisely the ramification locus of the Gauss map. In this note we discuss a Green's function associated…

It is often noted that many of the basic concepts of differential geometry, such as the definition of connection, are purely algebraic in nature. Here, we review and extend existing work on fully algebraic formulations of differential…

We discuss some properties of Jacobi fields that do not involve assumptions on the curvature endomorphism. We compare indices of different spaces of Jacobi fields and give some applications to Riemannian geometry.

Malliavin Calculus can be seen as a differential calculus on Wiener spaces. We present the notion of stochastic manifold for which the Malliavin Calculus plays the same role as the classical differential calculus for the differential…

Hypergraphs extend traditional graphs by enabling the representation of N-ary relationships through higher-order edges. Akin to a common approach of deriving graph Laplacians, we define function spaces and corresponding symmetric products…

The main purpose of this paper is to introduce the geometric difference sequence space $l_\infty^{G} (\Delta_G)$ and prove that $l_\infty^{G} ({\Delta}_{G})$ is a Banach space with respect to the norm $\left\|.\right\|^G_{{\Delta}_G}.$ Also…

Employing a class of generalized connections, we describe certain differential complices $\left(\tilde \Omega^*_{\mathbb{T}}(M), \tilde{\mathbb{d}}^{\mathbb{T}}\right)$ constructed from $\wedge^* \mathbb{T} M$ and study some of their basic…
