We give a new, connected-sum-like construction of Riemannian metrics with special holonomy G_2 on compact 7-manifolds. The construction is based on a gluing theorem for appropriate elliptic partial differential equations. As a prerequisite,…
On June 5, 2007 the second author delivered a talk at the Journees de l'Institut Elie Cartan entitled "Finite symmetry groups in complex geometry". This paper begins with an expanded version of that talk which, in the spirit of the…
The construction of supersymmetric invariant actions on a spacetime manifold with a boundary is carried out using the "ectoplasm" formalism for the construction of closed forms in superspace. Non-trivial actions are obtained from the…
We prove a generalised version of finiteness of skein modules for 3-manifolds by including boundary. We show that internal skein modules are holonomic modules over the internal skein algebra of the boundary - a property including finite…
We present a variety of geometrical and combinatorial tools that are used in the study of geometric structures on surfaces: volume, contact, symplectic, complex and almost complex structures. We start with a series of local rigidity results…
It is constructed a Formal Normal Form for a Special Class of Real-Smooth Submanfolds in $\mathbb{C}^{2N}$.
This EPTCS volume contains the joint proceedings for the fourth international workshop on Formal Methods for Autonomous Systems (FMAS 2022) and the fourth international workshop on Automated and verifiable Software sYstem DEvelopment (ASYDE…
This paper is dedicated to the study of deformations of coassociative 4-folds in a G_2 manifold which have conical singularities. We stratify the types of deformations allowed into three problems. The main result for each problem states…
Motivated by problems in the study of Anosov and pseudo-Anosov flows on 3-manifolds, we characterize when a pair $(L^+, L^-)$ of subsets of transverse laminations of the circle can be completed to a pair of transverse foliations of the…
We construct new compact manifolds endowed with closed $\mathrm{G}_2$ structures that satisfy the topological properties found by Joyce and Baraglia for the existence of a torsion-free $\mathrm{G}_2$ structure in the same cohomology class.…
The class of the hypercomplex pseudo-Hermitian manifolds is considered. The flatness of the considered manifolds with the 3 parallel complex structures is proved. Conformal transformations of the metrics are introduced. The conformal…
This volume contains the proceedings of the Workshop on Quantities in Formal Methods, QFM 2012, held in Paris, France on 28 August 2012. The workshop was affiliated with the 18th Symposium on Formal Methods, FM 2012. The focus of the…
We exhibit the first examples of closed 7-dimensional Riemannian manifolds with holonomy G_2 that are homeomorphic but not diffeomorphic. These are also the first examples of closed Ricci-flat manifolds that are homeomorphic but not…
We construct examples of exponentially asymptotically cylindrical Riemannian 7-manifolds with holonomy group equal to G_2. To our knowledge, these are the first such examples. We also obtain exponentially asymptotically cylindrical…
Submanifolds of finite type were introduced by the author during the late 1970s. The first results on this subject were collected in author's books [26,29]. In 1991, a list of twelve open problems and three conjectures on finite type…
Using D2-brane probes, we study various properties of M-theory on singular, non-compact manifolds of G_2 and Spin(7) holonomy. We derive mirror pairs of N=1 supersymmetric three-dimensional gauge theories, and apply this technique to…
In a previous paper we built a modified Hamiltonian formalism to make possible explicit maps among manifolds. In this paper the modified formalism was generalized. As an application, we have built maps among spaces associated to spinors, as…
Just as point objects are parallel transported along curves, giving holonomies, string-like objects are parallel transported along surfaces, giving surface holonomies. Composition of these surfaces correspond to products in a category…
In this paper, we are concerned with studying the existence of invariant complex manifolds of two-dimensional holomorphic systems. From the geometric singular perturbation theory we know that if a slow-fast system has associated a normally…
We introduce and study notions of bigraded formality for the algebra of forms on a complex manifold, along with their relation to higher Aeppli-Bott-Chern-Massey products which extend the case of triple products studied by…
