A hypersymplectic structure on a 4-manifold is a triple $\omega_1, \omega_2, \omega_3$ of 2-forms for which every non-trivial linear combination $a^1\omega_1 + a^2 \omega_2 + a^3 \omega_3$ is a symplectic form. Donaldson has conjectured…

A self-dual harmonic 2-form on a 4-dimensional Riemannian manifold is symplectic where it does not vanish. Furthermore, away from the form's zero set, the metric with the 2-form give a compatible almost complex structure and thus…

We study the Ricci flow for initial metrics which are C^0 small perturbations of the Euclidean metric on R^n. In the case that this metric is asymptotically Euclidean, we show that a Ricci harmonic map heat flow exists for all times, and…

The high volatility of renewable energies calls for more energy efficiency. Thus, different physical systems need to be coupled efficiently although they run on various time scales. Here, the port-Hamiltonian (pH) modeling framework comes…

Almost contact structures can be identified with sections of a twistor bundle and this allows to define their harmonicity, as sections or maps. We consider the class of nearly cosymplectic almost contact structures on a Riemannian manifold…
