We study generalized almost contact structures on odd-dimensional manifolds. We introduce a notion of integrability and show that the class of these structures is closed under symmetries of the Courant-Dorfman bracket, including T-duality.…
In this paper we consider mappings of jet spaces that preserve the module of canonical Pfaffian forms, but are not generally invertible. These mappings are called contact. A lemma on the prolongation of contact mappings is proved.…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring. We show that pure injective resolutions and pure projective resolutions can be constructed for unbounded complexes of $R$-modules. We use these to obtain a closed symmetric monoidal structure on the unbounded…
A new family of solutions of the Jacobi partial differential equations for finite-dimensional Poisson systems is investigated. This family is mathematically remarkable, as the functional dependences of the solutions appear to be associated…
We study the systems of ordinary differential equations which are implicit with respect to the higher derivatives, appearing in the linear form, and their solutions near the singular points. The invertibility of the higher derivatives…
Starting from a cubic form, we give a general construction of a quasi-complete homogeneous manifold endowed with a natural contact structure. We show that it can be compactified into a projective contact manifold if and only if the cubic…
We show that an oriented elliptic 3-manifold admits a universally tight positive contact structure iff the corresponding group of deck transformations on $S^3$ preserves a standard contact structure pointwise. We also relate univerally…
For simple algebraic groups defined over algebraically closed fields of good characteristic, we give upper bounds on the covering numbers of unipotent conjugacy classes in terms of their (co)ranks and in terms of their dimensions.
We identify the canonical contact structure on the link of a simple elliptic or cusp singularity by drawing a Legendrian handlebody diagram of one of its Stein fillings. We also show that the canonical contact structure on the link of a…
We prove that there is a unique real tight contact structure on the 3-ball with convex boundary up to isotopy through real tight contact structures. We also give a partial classification of the real tight solid tori with the real structure…
We study left invariant contact forms and left invariant symplectic forms on Lie groups. We give the classification of all symplectic structures on nilpotent Lie algebras up the dimension 6.
If a closed 3-manifold M supports a closed, nonsingular, irrational 1-form which linearly deforms into contact forms, then M supports a K-contact form. On the 3-torus, a closed nonsingular 1-form deforms linearly into contact forms if and…
In this paper we propose a theory of contact invariants and open string invariants, which are generalizations of the relative invariants. We introduce two moduli spaces $\bar{\mathcal{M}}_{A}(M^{+},C,g,m+\nu,{\bf y},{\bf…
We introduce the notion of cosymplectic structure on Jacobi-Jordan algebras, and we state that they are related to symplectic Jacobi-Jordan algebras. We show, in particular, that they support a right-skew-symmetric product. We also study…
We describe Jacobi forms of vector-valued weights in terms of classical ones, extending previous results by Ibukiyama and Kyomura to the case of arbitrary cogenus. As in their result, our isomorphisms are given by holomorphic covariant…
We consider a generalization of Einstein-Sasaki manifolds, which we characterize in terms both of spinors and differential forms, that in the real analytic case corresponds to contact manifolds whose symplectic cone is Calabi-Yau. We…
In this paper we study contact nonholonomic mechanical sys\-tems. We construct a general framework for non-holonomic constraints in contact geometry and, in this framework, we define different nonholonomic brackets using con\-venient…
Contact reduction is very closely related to symplectic reduction, but it allows symmetries that are not manifest in Hamiltonian mechanics and moreover, solution of the reduced problems yields solution of the original problem without…
The Jacobian algebras are introduced and their various properties are studied.
The Jacobi evolution method has been widely used in the QCD analysis of structure function data. However a recent paper claims that there are serious problems with its convergence and stability. Here we briefly review the evidence for the…
