This paper has several goals. The first idea is to study the geometric PDEs of connection-flatness, curvature-flatness, Ricci-flatness, scalar curvature-flatness in a modern and rigorous way. Although the idea is not new, our main Theorems…
We present a tensor calculus for exceptional generalised geometry. Expressions for connections, torsion and curvature are given a unified formulation for different exceptional groups E_n(n). We then consider "tensor gauge fields" coupled to…
We introduce the notion of N=1 supergeometric vertex operator superalgebra motivated by the worldsheet geometry underlying genus-zero, two-dimensional, holomorphic N=1 superconformal field theory. We then show, assuming the convergence of…
It is well known in NSR string theory, that vertex operators can be constructed in various ``pictures''. Recently this was discussed in the context of pure spinor formalism. NSR picture changing operators have an elegant super-geometrical…
We use an isomorphism between the space of valence two Killing tensors on an n-dimensional constant sectional curvature manifold and the irreducible GL(n+1)-representation space of algebraic curvature tensors in order to translate the…
In this paper we discuss the concept of cosymmetries and co--recursion operators for difference equations and present a co--recursion operator for the Viallet equation. We also discover a new type of factorisation for the recursion…
This paper presents a brief but comprehensive introduction to certain mathematical techniques in General Relativity. Familiar mathematical procedures are investigated taking into account the complications of introducing a non trivial…
Geometry arising from two diffusion operators (smooth semi-elliptic, second order differential operators) on different spaces but intertwined by a smooth map is described. Particular cases arise from Riemannian submersions when the…
Motivated by our attempt to understand characteristic classes of Lie groupoids and geometric structures, we are brought back to the fundamentals of the cohomology theories of Lie groupoids and algebroids. One element that was missing in the…
This paper has two purposes. The first is to introduce the definition of Haantjes manifolds with symmetry. The second is to explain why these manifolds appear in the theory of integrable systems of hydrodynamic type and in topological field…
Johnson--Lindenstrauss Transforms are powerful tools for reducing the dimensionality of data while preserving key characteristics of that data, and they have found use in many fields from machine learning to differential privacy and more.…
It is the aim of this paper to transfer to generalised geometry tools employed in the study of semi-Riemannian immersions, specializing at times to semi-Riemannian hypersurfaces. Given an exact Courant algebroid $E \to M$ and an immersion…
These notes represent a much expanded and updated version of the \textquotedblleft mini course\textquotedblright that the author gave at the ETH (Z\"{u}rich) and the University of Z\"{u}rich in February of 1995. The purpose of these notes…
In [G. Bianchi, R. J. Gardner and P. Gronchi, Symmetrization in Geometry, Adv. Math., vol. 306 (2017), 51-88], a systematic study of symmetrization operators on convex sets and their properties is conducted. In the end of their article, the…
This paper proposes a new framework and algorithms to address the problem of diffeomorphic registration on a general class of geometric objects that can be described as discrete distributions of local direction vectors. It builds on both…
The aim of this work is to offer a family of invariants that allows us to classify finite potent endomorphisms on arbitrary vector spaces, generalizing the classification of endomorphisms on finite-dimensional vector spaces. As a particular…
A brief history of the investigation of the Weil-Petersson curvature and a summary of Teichm\"{u}ller theory are provided. A report is presented on the program to describe an intrinsic geometry with the Weil-Petersson metric and…
We generalize to arbitrary categories of algebras the notion of an NS-algebra. We do this by using a bimodule property, as we did for defining the general notions of a dendriform and tridendriform algebra. We show that several types of…
This paper gives a short and historical survey on the theory of pure motives in algebraic geometry and reviews some of the recent developments of this theory in noncommutative geometry. The second part of the paper outlines the new theory…
The work consists of solutions of metric problems for convex and finite subsets of geodesic spaces.
