In this article, we consider analytic perturbations of isometries of an analytic Riemannian manifold M. We prove that, under some conditions, a finitely presented group of such small enough perturbations is analytically conjugate on M to…

By a classical theorem of Gallot (1979), a Riemannian cone over a complete Riemannian manifold is either flat or has irreducible holonomy. We consider metric cones with reducible holonomy over pseudo-Riemannian manifolds. First we describe…

We show that in special K\"ahler geometry of $N=2$ space-time supergravity the gauge variant part of the connection is holomorphic and flat (in a Riemannian sense). A set of differential identities (Picard-Fuchs identities) are satisfied on…

In this short note, we give a new sufficient condition for a linear map from a product of copies of a field to endomorphisms of a finite dimensional vector space over the same field to be an algebra homomorphism. We expect that this result…

An extended derivation (endomorphism) of a (restricted) Lie algebra $L$ is an assignment of a derivation (respectively) of $L'$ for any (restricted) Lie morphism $f:L\to L'$, functorial in $f$ in the obvious sense. We show that (a) the only…

We show that for any smooth Hausdorff manifolds M and N, which are not necessarily second countable, paracompact or connected, any isomorphism from the algebra of smooth (real or complex) functions on N to the algebra of smooth functions on…

We compare Hofer's geometries on two spaces associated with a closed symplectic manifold M. The first space is the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms. The second space L consists of all Lagrangian submanifolds of $M \times M$ which are…

In this paper we obtain exact normal forms with functional invariants for local diffeomorphisms, under the action of the symplectomorphism group in the source space. Using these normal forms we obtain exact classification results for the…

The theorem by Lewandowski et al. stating uniqueness of a diffeomorphism invariant state on an algebra of quantum observables for background independent theories of connections is based on some technical assumptions imposed on the algebra…

The paper is devoted to the study of local derivations and automorphisms of nilpotent Lie algebras. Namely, we proved that nilpotent Lie algebras with indices of nilpotency $3$ and $4$ admit local derivation (local automorphisms) which is…

We review Haefliger's differentiable cohomology for the pseudogroup of diffeomorphisms of $\mathbb{R}^q$. We investigate the structure needed to define such a cohomology, which, remarkably, is related to the so called Cartan distribution…

In this paper, we discuss the heat flow of a pseudo-harmonic map from a closed pseudo-Hermitian manifold to a Riemannian manifold with non-positive sectional curvature, and prove the existence of the pseudo-harmonic map which is a…

This is a survey of recent progress in several areas of combinatorial algebra. We consider combinatorial problems about free groups, polynomial algebras, free associative and Lie algebras. Our main idea is to study automorphisms and, more…

Any complex-analytic vector bundle $\mathbb E$ admits naturally defined homotheties $\phi_{\alpha}$, $\alpha\in \mathbb C^*$, i.e. $\phi_{\alpha}$ is the multiplication of a local section by a complex number $\alpha$. We investigate the…

This work deals with the structure of the isometry group of pseudo-Riemannian 2-step nilmanifolds. We study the action by isometries of several groups and we construct examples showing substantial differences with the Riemannain situation;…

We prove that the group of area-preserving diffeomorphisms of the 2-sphere admits a non-trivial homogeneous quasimorphism to the real numbers with the following property. Its value on any diffeomorphism supported in a sufficiently small…

For nonrelativistic Hamiltonians which are shape invariant, analytic expressions for the eigenvalues and eigenvectors can be derived using the well known method of supersymmetric quantum mechanics. Most of these Hamiltonians also possess…

We study the notion of the Lie-holomorph of a Leibniz algebra, recently introduced by N. P. Souris as a generalisation of the classical holomorph construction for Lie algebras. We establish a connection between the Lie-holomorph…

We discuss Lie-Tresse theorem for the pseudogroup of diffeomorphisms acting on the space of (pseudo-)Riemannian metrics, and relate this to existence of Killing vector fields. Then we discuss the impact of symmetry in the general case.

The present paper is devoted to the description of local and 2-local automorphisms on Cayley algebras over an arbitrary field $\mathbb{F}$. Given a Cayley algebra $\mathcal{C}$ with norm $n$, let $O(\mathcal{C},n)$ be the corresponding…
