Differential calculus on discrete sets is developed in the spirit of noncommutative geometry. Any differential algebra on a discrete set can be regarded as a `reduction' of the `universal differential algebra' and this allows a systematic…
In this thesis we describe the universal central extension of two important classes of so-called root-graded Lie algebras defined over a commutative associative unital ring $k.$ Root-graded Lie algebras are Lie algebras which are graded by…
We are interested in classifying groups of local biholomorphisms (or even formal diffeomorphisms) that can be endowed with a canonical structure of algebraic group up to add extra formal diffeomorphisms. We show that this is the case for…
We prove the existence (and give a characterization) of a germ of complex analytic set left invariant by an abelian group of germs of holomorphic diffeomorphisms at a common fixed point.We also give condition that ensure that such a group…
To any non-trivial embedding of sl(2) in a (super) Lie algebra, one can associate an extension of the Virasoro algebra. We realize the extended Virasoro algebra in terms of a WZW model in which a chiral, solvable group is gauged, the gauge…
We introduce Smale-Vietoris diffeomorphisms that include the classical DE-mappings with Smale solenoids. We describe the correspondence between basic sets of axiom A Smale-Vietoris diffeomorphisms and basic sets of nonsingular axiom A…
In this article we consider diffeomorphism groups of manifolds with smooth boundary. We show that the diffeomorphism groups of the manifold and its boundary fit into a short exact sequence which admits local sections. In other words, they…
We give an explicit description of the category of central extensions of a group scheme by a sheaf of Abelian groups. Based on this, we describe a framework for computing with central extensions of finite commutative group schemes, torsors…
Developments in Carrollian gravity and holography necessitate the use of singular Carroll vector fields, a feature that cannot be accommodated within standard Carrollian geometry. We introduce Carrollian Lie algebroids as a framework to…
We argue that discrete dynamics has natural links to the theory of analytic functions. Most important, bifurcations and chaotic dynamical properties are related to intersections of algebraic varieties. This paves the way to identification…
The Bott-Thurston cocycle is a $2$-cocycle on the group of orientation-preserving diffeomorphisms of the circle. We introduce and study a formal analog of Bott-Thurston cocycle. The formal Bott-Thurston cocycle is a $2$-cocycle on the group…
We call a unital locally convex algebra $A$ a continuous inverse algebra if its unit group $A^\times$ is open and inversion is a continuous map. For any smooth action of a, possibly infinite-dimensional, connected Lie group $G$ on a…
We study an analogue of the Drinfel'd double for algebroids associated with the $O(D,D+n)$ gauged double field theory (DFT). We show that algebroids defined by the twisted C-bracket in the gauged DFT are built out of a direct sum of three…
We present a general approach to the bifurcation analysis of elastic frameworks with symmetry. While group-theoretic methods for bifurcation problems with symmetry are well known, their actual implementation in the context of elastic…
By Torelli topology the author understands aspects of the topology of surfaces (potentially) relevant to the study of Torelli groups. The extension problem in Torelli topology is the problem of determining when a diffeomorphism of compact…
We consider here the category of diffeological vector pseudo-bundles, and study a possible extension of classical differential geometric tools on finite dimensional vector bundles, namely, the group of automorphisms, the frame bundle, the…
In two recent papers by the authors, all Lie bialgebra structures on Lie algebras of generalized Witt type are classified. In this paper all Lie bialgebra structures on generalized Virasoro-like algebras are determined. It is proved that…
It is conjectured that every manifold admitting an Anosov diffeomorphism is, up to homeomorphism, finitely covered by a nilmanifold. Motivated by this conjecture, an important problem is to determine which nilmanifolds admit an Anosov…
We extend some fundamental definitions and constructions in the established generalisation of Lie theory involving Lie groupoids by reformulating them in terms of groupoids internal to a well-adapted model of synthetic differential…
The paper presents the complete classification of Automorphic Lie Algebras based on $\mathfrak{sl}_n (\mathbb{C})$, where the symmetry group $G$ is finite and the orbit is any of the exceptional $G$-orbits in $\overline{\mathbb{C}}$. A key…
