We generalize parts of the theory of associative geometries developed by Kinyon and the author in the framework of universal algebra: we prove that certain associoid structures, such as pregroupoids and principal equivalence relations, have…
We prove uniform gradient and diameter estimates for a family of geometric complex Monge-Ampere equations. Such estimates can be applied to study geometric regularity of singular solutions of complex Monge-Ampere equations. We also prove a…
Coarse geometry, the branch of topology that studies the global properties of spaces, was originally developed for metric spaces and then Roe introduced coarse structures as a large-scale counterpart of uniformities. In the literature,…
We prove that generalised Monge-Amp\`ere equations (a family of equations which includes the inverse Hessian equations like the $J$-equation, as well as the Monge-Amp\`ere equation) on projective manifolds have smooth solutions if certain…
We study a class of noncommutative geometries that give rise to dimensionally reduced Yang-Mills theories. The emerging geometries describe sets of copies of an even dimensional manifold. Similarities to the D-branes in string theory are…
This article generalizes the theory of shifted symplectic structures to the relative context and non-geometric stacks. We describe basic constructions that naturally appear in this theory: shifted cotangent bundles and the AKSZ procedure.…
In classical field theory, the composite fibred manifolds Y -> Z -> X provides the adequate mathematical formulation of gauge models with broken symmetries, e.g., the gauge gravitation theory. This work is devoted to connections on…

The purpose of this note is to extend some classical results on quasi-projective schemes to the setting of derived algebraic geometry. Namely, we want to show that any vector bundle on a derived scheme admitting an ample line bundle can be…
We formalize the ``metric bundle'' viewpoint by defining, for any smooth $n$--manifold $M$, the open fiberwise cones $\mathcal{G}^{p,q}\subset S^2\Tstar M$ of nondegenerate symmetric bilinear forms with fixed signature $(p,q)$, and we…
We introduce non-smooth symplectic forms on manifolds and describe corresponding Poisson structures on the algebra of Colombeau generalized functions. This is achieved by establishing an extension of the classical map of smooth functions to…
We give a description of the connected graded algebras which are finitely generated and presented of global dimension 2 or 3 and which are Gorenstein. These algebras are constructed from multilinear forms. We generalize the construction by…
This paper presents a generalization of symplectic geometry to a principal bundle over the configuration space of a classical field. This bundle, the vertically adapted linear frame bundle, is obtained by breaking the symmetry of the full…
We survey foundational principles of Grothendieck's generalized spaces, including a critical glossary of the various, and often conflicting, terminological usages. Known results using generalized points support a fully pointwise notation…

We study generalized symmetries in a simplified arena in which the usual quantum field theories of physics are replaced with topological field theories and the smooth structure with which the symmetry groups of physics are usually endowed…
We develop a new approach to $L^{\infty}$-a priori estimates for degenerate complex Monge-Amp\`ere equations on complex manifolds. It only relies on compactness and envelopes properties of quasi-plurisubharmonic functions. Our method allows…
