We consider a class of smooth oriented Lorentzian manifolds in dimensions three and four which admit a nowhere vanishing conformal Killing vector and a closed two-form that is invariant under the Lie algebra of conformal Killing vectors.…

We prove a structure theorem for compact aspherical Lorentz manifolds with abundant local symmetry. If M is a compact, aspherical, real-analytic, complete Lorentz manifold such that the isometry group of the universal cover has semisimple…

A four dimensional generally covariant modified Yang-Mills action, which depends on the lorentzian complex structure of spacetime and not its metric, is presented. The extended Weyl symmetry, implied by the effective metric independence,…

The 2-parameter family of certain homogeneous Lorentzian 3-manifolds which includes Minkowski 3-space, de Sitter 3-space, and Minkowski motion group is considered. Each homogeneous Lorentzian 3-manifold in the 2-parameter family has a…

Let $M$ be a simply connected closed manifold of dimension $n$. We study the rational homotopy type of the configuration space of 2 points in $M$, $F(M,2)$. When $M$ is even dimensional, we prove that the rational homotopy type of $F(M,2)$…

Using a combination of techniques from conformal and complex geometry, we show the potentialization of 4-dimensional closed Einstein-Weyl structures which are half-algebraically special and admit a "half-integrable" almost-complex…

We revisit the classification of Lorentz homogeneous spaces of dimension $3$, and relax usual completeness assumptions. In particular, non-unimodular elliptic plane waves, and only them, are neither locally symmetric nor locally isometric…

It is shown that the geometry of locally homogeneous multisymplectic manifolds (that is, smooth manifolds equipped with a closed nondegenerate form of degree > 1, which is locally homogeneous of degree k with respect to a local Euler field)…

Second-order symmetric Lorentzian spaces, that is to say, Lorentzian manifolds with vanishing second derivative of the curvature tensor R, are characterized by several geometric properties, and explicitly presented. Locally, they are a…

We propose an abelian categorification of $\hat{Z}$-invariants for Seifert $3$-manifolds. First, we give a recursive combinatorial derivation of these $\hat{Z}$-invariants using graphs with certain hypercubic structures. Next, we consider…

We show that a class of matrix theories can be understood as an extension of quantum field theory which has non-local interactions. This reformulation is based on the Wigner-Weyl transformation, and the interactions take the form of Moyal…

We consider the derived category of coherent sheaves on a complex vector space equivariant with respect to an action of a finite reflection group G. In some cases, including Weyl groups of type A, B, G_2, F_4, as well as the groups…

The assumption in the main result of [Peter W. Michor: Basic Differential Forms for Actions of Lie Groups, Proc. AMS 124, 5 (1996) 1633-1642] is removed. Thus: A section of a Riemannian $G$-manifold $M$ is a closed submanifold $\Si$ which…

We consider conformal actions of solvable Lie groups on closed Lorentzian manifolds. With anterior results in which we addressed similar questions for semi-simple Lie group actions, this work contributes to the understanding of the identity…

By studying the action of the Weyl group of a simple Lie algebra on its root lattice, we construct torsion free subgroups of small and explicitly determined index in a large infinite class of Coxeter groups. One spin-off is the construction…

We discuss the structure of nonlocal effective action generating the conformal anomaly in classically Weyl invariant theories in curved spacetime. By the procedure of conformal gauge fixing, selecting the metric representative on a…

We study a transform, inspired by coherent state transforms, from the Hilbert space of Clifford algebra valued square integrable functions $L^2({\mathbb R}^m,dx)\otimes {\mathbb C}_{m}$ to a Hilbert space of solutions of the Weyl equation…

We describe the structure of $d$-dimensional homogeneous Lorentzian $G$-manifolds $M=G/H$ of a semisimple Lie group $G$. Due to a result by N. Kowalsky, it is sufficient to consider the case when the group $G$ acts properly, that is the…

We work in both the complex and in the para-complex categories and examine (para)-K\"ahler Weyl structures in both the geometric and in the algebraic settings. The higher dimensional setting is quite restrictive. We show that any…

Let N be a symmetric space of dimension n > 5 whose de Rham decomposition contains no factors of constant curvature and let W be the Weyl tensor of N at some point. We prove that a Riemannian manifold whose Weyl tensor at every point is a…
