We present a construction (and classification) of certain invariant 2-forms on the real symplectic group. They are used to define a symplectic form on the quotient by a maximal torus and to "lift" a symplectic structure from a symplectic…
We introduce symplectic structures on "Lie pairs" of (real or complex) algebroids as studied by Chen, Stienon and the second author (From Atiyah classes to homotopy Leibniz algebras, arXiv:1204.1075), encompassing homogeneous symplectic…
Supermanifolds provide a very natural ground to understand and handle supersymmetry from a geometric point of view; supersymmetry in $d=3,4,6$ and $10$ dimensions is also deeply related to the normed division algebras. In this paper we want…
Let $X$ be a K3 surface and let $\text{Spl}(r;c_1,c_2)$ be the moduli space of simple sheaves on $X$ of fixed rank $r$ and Chern classes $c_1$ and $c_2$. Under suitable assumptions, to a pair $(F,W)$ (respectively, $(F,V)$) where $F\in…
We study the moduli space of logarithmic connections of rank 2 on the Riemann sphere minus n points with fixed spectral data. There are two natural Lagrangian maps: one towards apparent singularities of the associated fuchsian scalar…
We characterize those classes $\ccc$ of separable Banach spaces admitting a separable universal space $Y$ (that is, a space $Y$ containing, up to isomorphism, all members of $\ccc$) which is not universal for all separable Banach spaces.…
Given a Banach space $A$ and fix a non-zero $\varphi\in A^*$ with $\|\varphi\|\leq 1$. Then the product $a\cdot b=\langle\varphi, a\rangle\ b$ turning $A$ into a Banach algebra which will be denoted by $_\varphi A.$ Some of the main…
In this note we investigate the structure of the space $\Jj$ of smooth almost complex structures on $S^2\times S^2$ that are compatible with some symplectic form. This space has a natural stratification that changes as the cohomology class…
In this research announcement we associate to each convex polytope, possibly nonrational and nonsimple, a family of compact spaces that are stratified by quasifolds, i.e. the strata are locally modelled by $\R^k$ modulo the action of a…
We survey recent developments on the structure of complemented subspaces of Banach lattices, including in particular the construction of a complemented subspace of a $C(K)$-space which is not linearly isomorphic to any Banach lattice.…
We analyse several examples of separable Banach spaces, some of them new, and relate them to several dichotomies obtained in the previous paper Banach spaces without minimal subspaces, by classifying them according to which side of the…
We consider odd Laplace operators arising in odd symplectic geometry. Approach based on semidensities (densities of weight 1/2) is developed. The role of semidensities in the Batalin--Vilkovisky formalism is explained. In particular, we…
Classes of Banach spaces that are finitely, strongly finitely or elementary equivalent are introduced. On sets of these classes topologies are defined in such a way that sets of defined classes become compact totally disconnected…
We recall the fat-graph description of Riemann surfaces $\Sigma_{g,s,n}$ and the corresponding Teichm\"uller spaces $\mathfrak T_{g,s,n}$ with $s>0$ holes and $n>0$ bordered cusps in the hyperbolic geometry setting. If $n>0$, we have a…
We propose a variant of the classical augmented Lagrangian method for constrained optimization problems in Banach spaces. Our theoretical framework does not require any convexity or second-order assumptions and allows the treatment of…
We give several structural results concerning the Lipschitz-free spaces $\mathcal F(M)$, where $M$ is a metric space. We show that $\mathcal F(M)$ contains a complemented copy of $\ell_1(\Gamma)$, where $\Gamma=\text{dens}(M)$. If $\mathcal…
We prove that every lattice in a product of higher rank simple Lie groups or higher rank simple algebraic groups over local fields has Vincent Lafforgue's strong property (T). Over non-archimedean local fields, we also prove that they have…
We present two constructions of complex symplectic structures on Lie algebras with large abelian ideals. In particular, we completely classify complex symplectic structures on almost abelian Lie algebras. By considering compact quotients of…
A symplectic bundle over an algebraic curve has a natural invariant $\sLag$ determined by the maximal degree of its Lagrangian subbundles. This can be viewed as a generalization of the classical Segre invariants of a vector bundle. We give…
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the definition of symplectic structure on a smooth stratified pseudomanifold in the framework of local $\C^{\infty}$-ringed space theory. We introduce a sheaf-theoretic definition of symplectic…
