We explore the geometric interpretation of the twisted index of 3d ${\mathcal N} =4$ gauge theories on $S^1\times \Sigma$ where $\Sigma$ is a closed Riemann surface. We focus on a rich class of supersymmetric quiver gauge theories that have…

Let $(M,g,J,\omega)$ be an almost Hermitian manifold. Given an automorphism $\psi\in \mathrm{Aut}(TM)$, the existing structure can be twisted to obtain a new almost Hermitian manifold $(M,g^\psi,J^\psi,\omega^\psi)$. In the current paper,…

We introduce the concept of pseudotwistor (with particular cases called twistor and braided twistor) for an algebra $(A, \mu, u)$ in a monoidal category, as a morphism $T:A\otimes A\to A\otimes A$ satisfying a list of axioms ensuring that…

In this paper, we present a unified framework for studying cohomology theories of various operators in the context of pseudoalgebras. The central tool in our approach is the notion of a quasi-twilled Lie pseudoalgebra. We introduce two…

For any 4D split-signature conformal structure, there is an induced twistor distribution on the 5D space of all self-dual totally null 2-planes, which is $(2,3,5)$ when the conformal structure is not anti-self-dual. Several examples where…

We propose the concepts of vicinal mappings and firmly vicinal mappings in metric spaces. We obtain fixed point and convergence theorems for these mappings in complete geodesic spaces with curvature bounded above by one and apply our…

Tractors and Twistors bundles both provide natural conformally covariant calculi on $4D$-Riemannian manifolds. They have different origins but are closely related, and usually constructed bottom-up through prolongation of defining…

We review the geometric setting of the field theory with locally anisotropic interactions. The concept of locally anisotropic space is introduced as a general one for various type of extensions of Lagrange and Finsler geometry and higher…

A quasi-twilled associative algebra is an associative algebra $\mathbb{A}$ whose underlying vector space has a decomposition $\mathbb{A} = A \oplus B$ such that $B \subset \mathbb{A}$ is a subalgebra. In the first part of this paper, we…

Although the autoparallel curves and the geodesics coincide in the Riemannian geometry in which only the curvature is nonzero among the nonmetricity, the torsion and the curvature, they define different curves in the non-Riemannian ones. We…
