The notion of global higher-form symmetries has received much attention, but leaves room for a more systematic mathematical formulation. In this article, we highlight the concept of higher automorphism bundles from the field of higher…
This set of lecture notes first gives an introduction to the geometry of principal bundles. Next, it demonstrates how they can be used to formalize the concept of gauge theories arising in physics. A basic familiarity with the differential…
We abstract Morimoto's construction of complex structures on product manifolds to pairs of certain generalized $F$-structures on manifolds that are not necessarily global products. As applications we characterize invariant generalized…
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…
A class of metrizable vector bundles in the general framework of generalized Lie algebroids have been presented in the eight reference. Using a generalized Lie algebroid we obtain the Lie algebroid generalized tangent bundle of a vector…
We introduce the notion of a manifold admitting a simple compact Cartan 3-form $\om^3$. We study algebraic types of such manifolds specializing on those having skew-symmetric torsion, or those associated with a closed or coclosed 3-form…
Let G be a compact, connected and simply connected Lie group, and {\Omega}G the space of the loops in G based at the identity. This note shows a way to compute the cohomology of the total space of a principal {\Omega}G-bundle over a…
The problem of gauging a closed form is considered. When the target manifold is a simple Lie group G, it is seen that there is no obstruction to the gauging of a subgroup H\subset G if we may construct from the form a cocycle for the…
In this paper we first consider the Hamiltonian action of a compact connected Lie group on an $H$-twisted generalized complex manifold $M$. Given such an action, we define generalized equivariant cohomology and generalized equivariant…
The aim of this note is to present some new explicit examples of $O(d,d)$-generalised Leibniz parallelisable spaces arising as the normal bundles of adjoint orbits $\mathcal{O}$ of some semi-simple Lie group $G$. Using this construction, an…
We apply ourselves to the noncommutative geometry of frame bundles by showing that each C$^*$-algebraic noncommutative principal $\mathrm{SO}(n)$-bundle is, up to isomorphism, uniquely determined by its associated noncommutative vector…
The notion of a generalized Lie bialgebroid (a generalization of the notion of a Lie bialgebroid) is introduced in such a way that a Jacobi manifold has associated a canonical generalized Lie bialgebroid. As a kind of converse, we prove…
The construction of gauge theories beyond the realm of Lie groups and algebras leads one to consider Lie groupoids and algebroids equipped with additional geometrical structures which, for gauge invariance of the construction, need to…
A Jacobi structure $J$ on a line bundle $L\to M$ is weakly regular if the sharp map $J^\sharp : J^1 L \to DL$ has constant rank. A generalized contact bundle with regular Jacobi structure possess a transverse complex structure. Paralleling…
Recently the author has introduced cobordism-like modules induced from generic maps whose codimensions are negative. They are generalizations of cobordism modules of manifolds. They have been introduced in generalizing the following theorem…
We develop a generalisation of the original theory of regularity structures, [Hai14], which is able to treat SPDEs on manifolds with values in vector bundles. Assume $M$ is a Riemannian manifold and $E\to M$ and $F^i\to M$ are vector…
What remains of a geometrical notion like that of a principal bundle when the base space is not a manifold but a coarse graining of it, like the poset formed by a base for the topology ordered under inclusion? Motivated by finding a…
A gauge theory is associated with a principal bundle endowed with a connection permitting to define horizontal lifts of paths. The horizontal lifts of surfaces cannot be defined into a principal bundle structure. An higher gauge theory is…
We give a classification of many closed Riemannian manifolds M whose universal cover possesses a nontrivial amount of symmetry. More precisely, we consider closed Riemannian manifolds $M$ such that Isom$(\widetilde{M})$ has noncompact…
This is a continuation of the preceding paper (hep-ph/0108219). First of all we make a brief review of generalized coherent states based on Lie algebra su(1,1) and prove that the resolution of unity can be obtained by the curvature form of…
