It is shown how new integral-geometric formulae can be obtained from the existing formulae of Crofton type. In particular, for classical Crofton formulae in which the answer depends on the Riemannian volume, we obtain generalizations in…
To each arbitrary given general geometric structure on $\mathbb{R}^{n}$, we associate a pair of compatible Fourier transforms, that prove to appear naturally in the framework of Poisson's summation formula for full lattices. We study their…
An isomorphism between two hermitian unitals is proved, and used to treat isomorphisms of classical groups that are related to the isomorphism between certain simple real Lie algebras of types A and D (and rank 3).
We state a unified geometrical version of the variational principles for second-order classical field theories. The standard Lagrangian and Hamiltonian variational principles and the corresponding field equations are recovered from this…
Recently, some concepts such as Hom-algebras, Hom-Lie algebras, Hom-Lie admissible algebras, Hom-coalgebras are studied and some of classical properties of algebras and some geometric objects are extended on them. In this paper by recall…
In the study of bi-Hamiltonian systems (both classical and quantum) one starts with a given dynamics and looks for all alternative Hamiltonian descriptions it admits.In this paper we start with two compatible Hermitian structures (the…
We study Hadamard variations with respect to general domain perturbations, particularly for the Neumann boundary condition. They are derived from new Liouville's formulae concerning the transformation of volume and area integrals. Then,…

We analyze the relation of the notion of a pluri-Lagrangian system, which recently emerged in the theory of integrable systems, to the classical notion of variational symmetry, due to E. Noether. We treat classical mechanical systems and…
Volume comparison theorem is a type of fundamental results in Riemannian geometry. In this article, we extend the volume comparison result in \cite{Besse2008} to the comparison of total $\sigma_l$-curvature with respect to…
This article develops a variational formulation of relativistic nature applicable to the quantum mechanics context. The main results are obtained through basic concepts on Riemannian geometry. Standards definitions such as vector fields and…
We prove comparison theorems for the horizontal Laplacian of the Riemannian distance in the context of Riemannian foliations with minimal leaves. This general framework generalizes previous works and allow us to consider the sub-Laplacian…
Lorentzian versions of classical Riemannian volume comparison theorems by Gunther, Bishop and Bishop-Gromov, are stated for suitable natural subsets of general semi-Riemannian manifolds. The problem is more subtle in the Bishop-Gromov case,…
We prove a Bishop volume comparison theorem and a Laplacian comparison theorem for three dimensional contact subriemannian manifolds with symmetry.
This review paper is devoted to presenting the standard multisymplectic formulation for describing geometrically classical field theories, both the regular and singular cases. First, the main features of the Lagrangian formalism are…
A pedagogical but concise overview of Riemannian geometry is provided, in the context of usage in physics. The emphasis is on defining and visualizing concepts and relationships between them, as well as listing common confusions,…
We establish volume comparison results for balls in Riemannian manifolds with $C^{1,1}$-metrics with a lower bound on the Ricci tensor and for the evolution of spacelike, acausal, causally complete hypersurfaces with an upper bound on the…
We lay foundations of the subject in the title, on which we build in another paper devoted to isometries in spaces of K\"ahler metrics.
A Riemannian metric on a manifold M induces a family of Riemannian metrics on the loop space LM depending on a Sobolev space parameter s. We compute the connection forms of these metrics and the higher symbols of their curvature forms,…
It is known that some equations of differential geometry are derived from variational principle in form of Euler-Lagrange equations. The equations of geodesic flow in Riemannian geometry is an example. Conversely, having Lagrangian…
