We study the cohomological equation for a smooth vector field on a compact manifold. We show that if the vector field is cohomology free, then it can be embedded continuously in a linear flow on an Abelian group.

Unless another thing is stated one works in the $C^\infty$ category and manifolds have empty boundary. Let $X$ and $Y$ be vector fields on a manifold $M$. We say that $Y$ tracks $X$ if $[Y,X]=fX$ for some continuous function $f\colon…

We study character varieties arising as moduli of representations of an orientable surface group into a reductive group $G$. We first show that if $G/Z$ acts freely on the representation variety, then both the representation variety and the…

An odd vector field $Q$ on a supermanifold $M$ is called homological, if $Q^2=0$. The operator of Lie derivative $L_Q$ makes the algebra of smooth tensor fields on $M$ into a differential tensor algebra. In this paper, we give a complete…

For a representation of a finite group $G$ on a complex vector space $V$ we determine when a holomorphic $\binom{p}{q}$-tensor field on the principle stratum of the orbit space $V/G$ can be lifted to a holomorphic $G$-invariant tensor field…
