We investigate the geometry of the moduli spaces $\mathscr{M}_{\HE}^*(M^{2n})$ of Hermitian-Einstein irreducible connections on a vector bundle $E$ over a K\"ahler with torsion (KT) manifold $M^{2n}$ that admits holomorphic and…
We consider the moduli space MN of flat unitary connections on an open Kaehler manifold U (complement of a divisor with normal crossings) with restrictions on their monodromy transformations. Using intersection and L2 cohomologies with…
The theory of connections in Finsler geometry is not satisfactorily established as in Riemannian geometry. Many trials have been carried out to build up an adequate theory. One of the most important in this direction is that of Grifone ([3]…
We give a review of the systematic construction of hierarchies of soliton flows and integrable elliptic equations associated to a complex semi-simple Lie algebra and finite order automorphisms. For example, the non-linear Schr\"odinger…
In these notes we survey basic concepts of affine geometry and their interaction with Riemannian geometry. We give a characterization of affine manifolds which has as counterpart those pseudo-Riemannian manifolds whose Levi-Civita…
In this paper, we investigate nilpotent and unimodular solvable Lie groups that admit quasi-Einstein metrics $(M,g,X)$ with $X$ a left-invariant vector field, which we call totally left-invariant quasi-Einstein metrics. We give a complete…
We generalize the notion of kinematical Lie algebra introduced in physics for the classification of the various possible relativity algebras an isotropic spacetime can accommodate. We first give an elementary proof of the fact that such a…
We define Dorfman connections, which are to Courant algebroids what connections are to Lie algebroids. Several examples illustrate this analogy. A linear connection $\nabla\colon \mathfrak{X}(M)\times\Gamma(E)\to\Gamma(E)$ on a vector…
In a contact manifold (M^5, alpha), we consider almost complex structures J which satisfy, for any vector v in the horizontal distribution, d alpha (v,Jv) = 0. We prove that integral cycles whose approximate tangent planes have the property…
For some time now, conformal field theories in two dimensions have been studied as integrable systems. Much of the success of these studies is related to the existence of an operator algebra of the theory. In this paper, some of the…
Let $\pi:E\to M$ be a vector bundle over a simply connected manifold and $\nabla$ a linear connection in $\pi$. Let $\sigma: U \rightarrow E$ be a $\nabla$-parallel section of $\pi$ defined on a connected open subset $U$ of $M$. We give…
Consider an anchored bundle $(E,\rho)$, i.e. a vector bundle $E\to M$ equipped with a bundle map $\rho \colon E \to TM$ covering the identity. M.~Kapranov showed in the context of Lie-Rinehard algebras that there exists an extension of this…
In the present paper, we study an extended theory of statistical manifolds in application to affine differential geometry. Any smooth hypersurface $M \subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ with a transverse vector field $\xi$ naturally admits a…
Given a transitive DG-Lie algebroid $(\mathcal{A}, \rho)$ over a smooth separated scheme $X$ of finite type over a field $\mathbb{K}$ of characteristic $0$ we define a notion of connection $\nabla \colon \mathbf{R}\Gamma(X,\mathrm{Ker}…
We develop a class of integrals on a manifold M called exponential iterated integrals, an extension of K. T. Chen's iterated integrals. It is shown that the matrix entries of any upper triangular representation of the fundamental group of M…
This paper introduces a new class of geometric structures in almost contact metric geometry, which we call locally conformal almost generalized $f$-cosymplectic manifolds. These are almost contact metric structures $(\phi, \xi, \eta, g)$…
We apply the quaternionic Jordan form to classify the hypercomplex nilpotent almost abelian Lie algebras in all dimensions and to carry out the complete classification of 12-dimensional hypercomplex almost abelian Lie algebras. Moreover, we…
For a compact, oriented, hyperbolic $n$-manifold $(M,g)$, realised as $M= \Gamma \backslash \mathbb{H}^{n}$ where $\Gamma$ is a torsion-free cocompact subgroup of $SO(n,1)$, we establish and study a relationship between differential…
Zero-curvature representations (ZCRs) are one of the main tools in the theory of integrable PDEs. In particular, Lax pairs for (1+1)-dimensional PDEs can be interpreted as ZCRs. For any (1+1)-dimensional scalar evolution equation $E$, we…
We propose a geometric integrator to numerically approximate the flow of Lie systems. The key is a novel procedure that integrates the Lie system on a Lie group intrinsically associated with a Lie system on a general manifold via a Lie…
