We study constructions of contact forms on closed manifolds. A notion of strong symplectic fold structure is defined and we prove that there is a contact form on $M \x X$ provided that $M$ admits such a structure and $X$ is contact. This…

In this study, we investigate generalized quasi-Einstein structure for normal metric contact pair manifolds. Firstly, we deal with elementary properties and examine, existence, and characterizations of generalized quasi-Einstein normal…

We study the geometric properties of the manifold of states described as (uniform) matrix product states. Due to the parameter redundancy in the matrix product state representation, matrix product states have the mathematical structure of a…

In this paper, we study some intrinsic characterization of conformally compact manifolds. We show that, if a complete Riemannian manifold admits an essential set and its curvature tends to -1 at infinity in certain rate, then it is…

We consider principal fibre bundles with a given connection and construct almost complex structures on the total space if the adjoint bundle is isomorphic to the tangent bundle of the base. We derive the integrability condition. If the…

The notion of non-projectible contact forms on a given compact manifold $M$ is introduced by the first-named author in [Ohb], the set of which he also shows is a residual subset of the set of (coorientable) contact forms, both in the case…

In this paper, we explore the structure of Rabinowitz--Floer homology $RFH_*$ on contact manifolds whose Reeb flow is periodic (and which satisfy an index condition such that $RFH_*$ is independent of the filling). The main result is that…

Holomorphic principal G-bundles over a complex manifold M can be studied using non-abelian cohomology groups H^1(M,G). On the other hand, if M=\Sigma is a closed Riemann surface, there is a correspondence between holomorphic principal…

Natural metric structures on the tangent bundle and tangent sphere bundles $S_rM$ of a Riemannian manifold $M$ with radius function $r$ enclose many important unsolved problems. Admitting metric connections on $M$ with torsion, we deduce…

We prove that the multiplication of sections of globally generated line bundles on a model wonderful variety M of simply connected type is always surjective. This follows by a general argument which works for every wonderful variety and…

Let $M$ be a compact complex manifold equipped with a Gauduchon metric. If $TM$ is holomorphically trivial, and (V, \theta) is a stable SL(r,{\mathbb C})-Higgs bundle on $M$, then we show that $\theta= 0$. We show that the correspondence…

We present an explicit construction of the basic bundle gerbes with connection over all connected compact simple Lie groups. These are geometric objects that appear naturally in the Lagrangian approach to the WZW conformal field theories.…

We give a new proof of the classification of contact real hypersurfaces with constant mean curvature in the complex hyperbolic quadric ${Q^m}^* = SO_{m,2}^o/SO_mSO_2$, where $m\geq 3$. We show that a contact real hypersurface $M$ in…

We formulate and prove compensated compactness theorems concerning the limiting behaviour of wedge products of weakly convergent differential forms on closed Riemannian manifolds \`{a} la Robbin--Rogers--Temple [Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 303…

In this article we extend results of Grove and Tanaka on the existence of isometry-invariant geodesics to the setting of Reeb flows and strict contactomorphisms. Specifically, we prove that if M is a closed connected manifold with the…

We recast basic topological concepts underlying differential geometry using the language and tools of noncommutative geometry. This way we characterize principal (free and proper) actions by a density condition in (multiplier) C*-algebras.…

We consider contact foliations: objects which generalise to higher dimensions the flow of the Reeb vector field on contact manifolds. We list a number of properties of such foliations, and propose two conjectures about the topological types…

We construct a simple topological invariant of certain 3-manifolds, including quotients of the 3-sphere by finite groups, based on the fact that the tangent bundle of an orientable 3-manifold is trivialisable. This invariant is strong…

The main goal of this article is to construct some geometric invariants for the topology of the set $\mathcal{F}$ of flat connections on a principal $G$-bundle $P\,\longrightarrow\, M$. Although the characteristic classes of principal…
