We introduce a system of axioms that uniquely defines an (infinity,d)-category of bordisms equipped with geometric data. The underlying manifolds of these bordisms may be smooth, complex, super, or formal smooth manifolds, as well as any…

The paper introduces a new differential-geometric system which originates from the theory of $m$-Hessian operators. The core of this system is a new notion of invariant differentiation on multidimensional surfaces. This novelty gives rise…

We generalize the notion of metallic structure in the pseudo-Riemannian setting, define the metallic Norden structure and study its integrability. We consider metallic maps between metallic manifolds and give conditions under which they are…

We study dg-manifolds which are R[2]-bundles over R[1]-bundles over manifolds, we calculate its symmetries, its derived symmetries and we introduce the concept of T-dual dg-manifolds. Within this framework we construct the T-duality map as…

We survey on the geometry of the tangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold, endowed with the classical metric established by S. Sasaki 60 years ago. Following the results of Sasaki, we try to write and deduce them by different means.…

Algebraists asked whether or not an operator on the module of smooth sections of the tangent bundle over the commutative ring of smooth functions of a smooth (orientable) manifold (can be any piece of a compact or a complete manifold) can…

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…

In this paper, we study Absolute Parallelism (AP-) geometry on the tangent bundle $TM$ of a manifold $M$. Accordingly, all geometric objects defined in this geometry are not only functions of the positional argument $x$, but also depend on…

A Lie algebroid over a manifold is a vector bundle over that manifold whose properties are very similar to those of a tangent bundle. Its dual bundle has properties very similar to those of a cotangent bundle: in the graded algebra of…
