In this paper, we define canonical lifts of vector fields to the multisymplectic multimomentum bundles of De Donder-Weyl Hamiltonian first-order field theories and to the appropriate premultisymplectic embedded constraint submanifolds on…
We discuss a correspondence between certain contact pairs on the one hand, and certain locally conformally symplectic forms on the other. In particular, we characterize these structures through suspensions of contactomorphisms. If the…
Given a compact hyperkaehler manifold $M$ and a holomorphic bundle B over $M$, we consider a Hermitian connection $\nabla$ on B which is compatible with all complex structures on $M$ induced by the hyperkaehler structure. Such a connection…
Motivated by the desire of finding a geometric interpretation to the Yamabe equation on groups of Heisenberg type, we define a geometric structure on manifolds modelled locally on these groups, which we call contact structure of Heisenberg…
We give a global formulation of the coupling of four-dimensional scalar sigma models to Abelian gauge fields for the generalized situation when the "duality structure" of the Abelian gauge theory is described by a flat symplectic vector…
We classify both local and global K\"ahler structures admitting totally geodesic homothetic foliations with complex leaves. The main building blocks are related to Swann's twists and are obtained by applying Weinstein's method of…
For a connected Lie group G, we show that a complex structure on the total space TG of the tangent bundle of G that is left invariant and has the property that each left translation G-orbit is a totally real submanifold is induced from a…
We present the construction of canonical lifts of $\ell$-adic cycle classes of sections of $p$-adic projective anabelian curves to the cohomology of arbitrary proper, regular, flat models. This answers a question of Esnault and Wittenberg.
We give a geometric interpretation of the Weil representation of the metaplectic group, placing it in the framework of the geometric Langlands program. For a smooth projective curve X we introduce an algebraic stack \tilde\Bun_G of…
We construct calibrated submanifolds of R^7 and R^8 by viewing them as total spaces of vector bundles and taking appropriate sub-bundles which are naturally defined using certain surfaces in R^4. We construct examples of associative and…
A noncommutative-geometric formalism of framed principal bundles is sketched, in a special case of quantum bundles (over quantum spaces) possessing classical structure groups. Quantum counterparts of torsion operators and Levi-Civita type…
Let M be a (bounded or not) domain of C^n which is complete with respect to a K\"ahler metric, or more generally, a complete K\"ahler manifold with trivial canonical bundle. Let f be a linearly nondegenerate meromorphic map from M to the…
A noncommutative-geometric generalization of classical Weil theory of characteristic classes is presented, in the conceptual framework of quantum principal bundles. A particular care is given to the case when the bundle does not admit…
The geometry of submanifolds is intimately related to the theory of functions and vector bundles. It has been of fundamental importance to find out how those two objects interact in many geometric and physical problems. A typical example of…
In this work, the warped product of Hamilton spaces is introduced and it is shown that these spaces obtain Hamiltonian structure as well. Then, the geometric properties of warped product Hamilton spaces such as their nonlinear connections…
We establish some fundamental relations between Dirac subbundles $L$ for the generalized Courant algebroid $(A\oplus A^{\ast}, \phi+W)$ over a differentiable manifold $M$ and the associated Dirac subbubndles $\tilde{L}$ for the…
We develop a systematic approach to contact and Jacobi structures on graded supermanifolds. In this framework, contact structures are interpreted as symplectic principal GL(1,R)-bundles. Gradings compatible with the GL(1,R)-action lead to…
In their celebrated paper of 1976, Rothschild and Stein prove a lifting procedure that locally reduces to a free nilpotent Lie algebra any family of smooth vector fields $X_1,\dots,X_q$, over a manifold $M$. Then, a large class of…
We show that, for a simplicial group K,the realization of the W-construction of K is naturally homeomorphic to the universal bundle of its geometric realization. The argument involves certain recursive descriptions of the W-construction and…
We discuss the nature of structure-preserving maps of varies function algebras. In particular, we identify isomorphisms between special Colombeau algebras on manifolds with invertible manifold-valued generalized functions in the case of…
