In this paper we introduce the notion of twisted symplectic reflection algebras and describe the category of representations of such an algebra associated to a non-faithful G-action in terms of those for faithful actions of G.
Using a basic idea of Sullivan's rational homotopy theory, one can see a Lie groupoid as the fundamental groupoid of its Lie algebroid. This paper studies analogues of Lie algebroids with non-trivial higher homotopy. Using various homotopy…
Poisson algebraic structures on current manifolds (of maps from a finite dimensional Riemannian manifold into a 2-dimensional manifold) are investigated in terms of symplectic geometry. It is shown that there is a one to one correspondence…
This work presents a general geometric framework for simulating and learning the dynamics of Hamiltonian systems that are invariant under a Lie group of transformations. This means that a group of symmetries is known to act on the system…
We describe first integrals of geostrophic equations, which are similar to the enstrophy invariants of the Euler equation for an ideal incompressible fluid. We explain the geometry behind this similarity, give several equivalent definitions…
In this paper we analyze in detail a collection of motivating examples to consider $b^m$-symplectic forms and folded-type symplectic structures. In particular, we provide models in Celestial Mechanics for every $b^m$-symplectic structure.…
We collect together various facts about G_2 and Spin(7) geometry which are likely well known but which do not seem to have appeared explicitly in the literature before. These notes should be useful to graduate students and new researchers…
In this paper we define a new category of almost complex riemannian 4- manifolds and discuss some basic properties of such pseudo symplectic manifolds. Some motivation based on the Seiberg - Witten theory is imposed.
We consider some differential geometric classes of local and nonlocal Poisson and symplectic structures on loop spaces of smooth manifolds which give natural Hamiltonian and multihamiltonian representations for some important nonlinear…
This is the pdf -version of the author's Ph.D. thesis (1995, ULB, Belgium). The notion of symeplectic symmertic space is introduced and studied via Lie theoretical and symplectic geoemetrical methods. The first chapter concerns basic…
This is the abstract of a series of lectures given during the XIIIth School on Geometry and Physics, Bialystok (Poland), in July 2024. In this minicourse, we first examine the algebraic aspects of barycentric algebras. Then, we focus on…
The existence theorem for mapping cylinder neighborhoods is discussed as a prototypical example of controlled topology and its applications. The first of a projected series developed from lectures at the Summer School on High-Dimensional…
This document collects contributions to the Open Problem List in Billiards and Quantitative Symplectic Geometry, compiled following discussions during the workshop ``Billiards and quantitative symplectic geometry'' that took place at the…
This paper is intended both an introduction to the algebraic geometry of holomorphic Poisson brackets, and as a survey of results on the classification of projective Poisson manifolds that have been obtained in the past twenty years. It is…
These notes are based on the mini-course given in June 2004 in Cetraro, Italy, in the frame of a C.I.M.E. school. Of course, they contain much more material that I could present in the 6 hours course. The main goal is to give an idea of the…
In this lecture note, we give a basic introduction to the rapidly developing concepts of generalized symmetries, from the perspectives of both high energy physics and condensed matter physics. In particular, we emphasize on the (invertible)…
Geometric mechanics is usually studied in applied mathematics and most introductory texts are hence aimed at a mathematically minded audience. The present note tries to provide the intuition of geometric mechanics and to show the relevance…
This note is based on a lecture delivered by the author at the Second Conference on Differential Geometry, held in Fez in October 2024. It offers an accessible introduction to biharmonic and biconservative submanifolds, exploring the…
This is an exposition of the Donaldson geometric flow on the space of symplectic forms on a closed smooth four-manifold, representing a fixed cohomology class. The original work appeared in [1].
We undertake a detailed study of the geometry of Bottacin's Poisson structures on Hilbert schemes of points in Poisson surfaces, i.e. smooth complex surfaces equipped with an effective anticanonical divisor. We focus on three themes that,…
