There is a canonical mapping from the space of sections of the bundle $\wedge T^\ast M\otimes ST\ M$ to $\Omega(T^\ast M ; T(T^\ast M))$. It is shown that this is a homomorphism on $\Omega(M;TM) for the Fr\"olicher-Nijenhuis brackets, and…

In commutative differential geometry the Fr\"olicher-Nijenhuis bracket computes all kinds of curvatures and obstructions to integrability. In \cit!{3} the Fr\"olicher-Nijenhuis bracket was developped for universal differential forms of…
Identities pertaining to the de Rham codifferential $\delta$ in differential geometry are scattered in the literature. This article gathers such formulas involving usual differential operators (Lie derivative, Schouten-Nijenhuis bracket,…
As an analogy of superalgebra of multivector fields with the Schounte bracket, we introduce a non-trivial superbracket on differential forms of manifold. We show properties of this new superalgebra. We extend this superalgebra by adding one…
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 $M$, $T^{2}M$…
It is shown how derived brackets naturally arise in sigma-models via Poisson- or antibracket, generalizing a recent observation by Alekseev and Strobl. On the way to a precise formulation of this relation, an explicit coordinate expression…
A general theory of the Frolicher-Nijenhuis and Schouten-Nijenhuis brackets in the category of modules over a commutative algebra is described. Some related structures and (co)homology invariants are discussed, as well as applications to…
The convenient setting for smooth mappings, holomorphic mappings, and real analytic mappings in infinite dimension is sketched. Infinite dimensional manifolds are discussed with special emphasis on smooth partitions of unity and tangent…
The super or Z_2-graded Schouten-Nijenhuis bracket is introduced. Using it, new generalized super-Poisson structures are found which are given in terms of certain graded-skew-symmetric contravariant tensors \Lambda of even order. The…
The paper starts with an interpretation of the complete lift of a Poisson structure from a manifold M to its tangent bundle TM by means of the Schouten- Nijenhuis bracket of covariant symmetric tensor fields defined by the co- tangent Lie…
We present a new construction of four dimensional $\mathcal N=3$ theories, given by M5 branes wrapping a $T^2$ in an M-theory U-fold background. The resulting setup generalizes the one used in the usual class $\mathcal S$ construction of…
We prove that any multi-variate Hasse-Schmidt derivation can be decomposed in terms of substitution maps and uni-variate Hasse-Schmidt derivations. As a consequence we prove that the bracket of two $m$-integrable derivations is also…
Mapping spaces of supermanifolds are usually thought as exclusively in functorial terms (i.e. trough the Grothendieck functor of points). In this work we provide a geometric description of such mapping spaces in terms of…
We show that, on a smoothly paracompact convenient manifold $M$ modeled on a convenient space with the bornological approximation property, the dual map of a Poisson bracket factors as a smooth section of the vector bundle…
A classical result in Riemannian geometry states that the absolutely continuous curves into a (finite-dimensional) Riemannian manifold form an infinite-dimensional manifold. In the present paper this construction and related results are…
We carry over to a quite general noncommutative setting some of the basic tools of differential geometry, using from the very beginning the setting of convenient vector spaces developed by Froelicher and Kriegl, which allows to carry all of…
We define two $(n+1)$ graded Lie brackets on spaces of multilinear mappings. The first one is able to recognize $n$-graded associative algebras and their modules and gives immediately the correct differential for Hochschild cohomology. The…
The nth relative Kauffman bracket skein modules are defined and two theorems are given relating them to the Kauffman bracket skein module of a 3-manifold. The first theorem covers the case when the 3-manifold is split along a separating…
