In 1978, M. J. Cowen and R.G. Douglas introduce a class of operators (known as Cowen-Douglas class of operators) and associates a Hermitian holomorphic vector bundle to such an operator in a very influential paper. They give a complete set…

We introduce an integral structure in orbifold quantum cohomology associated to the K-group and the Gamma-class. In the case of compact toric orbifolds, we show that this integral structure matches with the natural integral structure for…

The geometry of P, the bundle of null directions over an Einstein space-time, is studied. The full set of invariants of the natural G-structure on P is constructed using the Cartan method of equivalence. This leads to an extension of P…

This paper analyses non-regular $|2|$-graded geometries, and show that they share many of the properties of regular geometries -- the existence of a unique normal Cartan connection encoding the structure, the harmonic curvature as…

In this paper, the Cartan tensors of the $(\alpha,\beta)$-norms are investigated in details. Then an equivalence theorem of $(\alpha,\beta)$-norms is proved. As a consequence in Finsler geometry, general $(\alpha,\beta)$-metrics on smooth…

We consider principal fibre bundles with a given connection and construct almost complex structures on the total space if the adjoint bundle is isomorphic to the tangent bundle of the base. We derive the integrability condition. If the…
