The second order tangent bundle $T^{2}M$ of a smooth manifold $M$ consists of the equivalent classes of curves on $M$ that agree up to their acceleration. It is known that in the case of a finite $n$-dimensional manifold $M$, $T^{2}M$…
The geometry of the total space of a principal bundle with regard to the action of the bundle's structure group is elegantly described by the bundle's operation, a collection of derivations consisting of the de Rham differential and the…
The paper is mainly devoted to systematic developments and applications of geometric aspects of second-order variational analysis that are revolved around the concept of parabolic regularity of sets. This concept has been known in…
Based on Colombeau's theory of algebras of generalized functions we introduce the concepts of generalized functions taking values in differentiable manifolds as well as of generalized vector bundle homomorphisms. We study their basic…

We study some canonical differential operators on vector bundles over smooth, complete Riemannian manifolds. Under very general assumptions, we show that smooth, compactly supported sections are dense in the domains of these operators.…

Second-order variational properties have been shown to play important theoretical and numerical roles for different classes of optimization problems. Among such properties, twice epi-differentiability has a special place because of its…
We provide a pedagogical introduction to the theory of principal 2-bundles with adjusted connections and show how they enter the description of geometric and non-geometric T-dualities as proposed in arXiv:2204.01783. This description…
On a smooth complex projective variety $X$ of dimension $n$, consider an ample vector bundle $\mathcal{E}$ of rank $r \leq n-2$ and an ample line bundle $H$. A numerical character $m_2=m_2(X,\mathcal{E},H)$ of the triplet…
We generalize Bertram's work on rank two vector bundles to an irreducible projective nodal curve C. We use extensions of a line bundle L by O_C and the associated `forgetful' map to study a compactification of the moduli space of…
We study no-gap second-order optimality conditions for a non-uniformly convex and non-smooth integral functional. The integral functional is extended to the space of measures. The obtained second-order derivatives contain integrals on…
It is a classic result that the geometry of the total space of a principal bundle with reference to the action of the bundle's structure group is codified in the bundle's operation, a collection of derivations comprising the de Rham…
In this paper we construct the notions of double Fell bundle and double C*-category for possible future use as tools to describe noncommutative spaces, in particular in finite dimensions. We identify the algebra of sections of a double Fell…

Fundamental duality is a concept which refers to two irreducible, heterogeneous principles which are in opposite and complementary of each other. The complementary principle in quantum mechanics is also praised by Bohr. This important…
The dual stable Grothendieck polynomials are a deformation of the Schur functions, originating in the study of the K-theory of the Grassmannian. We generalize these polynomials by introducing a countable family of additional parameters, and…

We generalize the notion of Thom polynomials from singularities of maps between two complex manifolds to invariant cones in representations, and collections of vector bundles. We prove that the generalized Thom polynomials, expanded in the…
