We compare two ways of interpreting higher order connections. The geometric approach lies in the decomposition of higher order tangent space into the horizontal and vertical structures while the jet--like approach considers a higher order…
We apply the technique of jet differentials to establish a Gauss curvature estimate for an open Riemann surface $M$, equipped with a conformal metric induced from a nonconstant holomorphic map that is highly ramified over a generic…
The aim of this paper is to construct a natural Riemann-Lagrange differential geometry on 1-jet spaces, in the sense of nonlinear connections, generalized Cartan connections, d-torsions, d-curvatures, jet electromagnetic fields and jet…
Jet spaces on $\mathbb R^n$ have been shown to have a canonical structure of stratified Lie groups (also known as Carnot groups). We construct jet spaces over stratified Lie groups adapted to horizontal differentiation and show that these…
A general definition of the curves and geodesics associated with a given connection on a quantized manifold is given. In the particular case of the functional quantization we define geodesics in the same way as in the classical case and we…
The current paper is devoted to the study of integral curves of constant type in parabolic homogeneous spaces. We construct a canonical moving frame bundle for such curves and give the criterium when it turns out to be a Cartan connection.…
A theorem of Laman gives a combinatorial characterisation of the graphs that admit a realisation as a minimally rigid generic bar-joint framework in $\bR^2$. A more general theory is developed for frameworks in $\bR^3$ whose vertices are…
This article shows that the approach to generalised curvature and torsion pioneered by Polacek and Siegel [1] is a generalisation of Cartan Geometry -- rendering latter natural from the point of view of O(d,d)-generalised geometry. We…
The concept of number and its generalization has played a central role in the development of mathematics over many centuries and many civilizations. Noteworthy milestones in this long and arduous process were the developments of the real…
In this article ideas from Kit Fine's theory of arbitrary objects are applied to questions regarding mathematical structuralism. I discuss how sui generic mathematical structures can be viewed as generic systems of mathematical objects,…
G-frames are generalized frames which include ordinary frames, bounded invertible linear operators, as well as many recent generalizations of frames, e.g., bounded quasi-projectors and frames of subspaces. G-frames are natural…
The main theorem of this paper is a result of estimated transversality with respect to stratifications of jet spaces in the approximately holomorphic category over an almost-complex manifold. The notion of asymptotic ampleness of complex…
Integral geometry deals with those integral transforms which associate to ``functions'' on a manifold their integrals along submanifolds parameterized by another manifold. Basic problems in this context are range characterization--where…
In this paper we construct the jet geometrical extensions of the KCC-invariants, which characterize a given second-order system of differential equations on the 1-jet space $J^1(R,M)$. A generalized theorem of characterization of our jet…
The primary aim of this paper is to provide a simple and concrete interpretation of Cartan geometry in terms of the mathematics of idealized waywisers. Waywisers, also called hodometers, are instruments traditionally used to measure…
Latent representations are an important theme in modern machine learning. Any network training with the notion of locality introduces a latent geometry which we can analyze with the help of differential geometry, specifically information…
This is the lecture 3 of a mini-course of 4 lectures. Our purpose of this mini-curse is to explain some ideas of E. Cartan and S. Lie when we study differential geometry, particularly we will to explain the Cartan reduction method. The…
Discretization of curves is an ancient topic. Even discretization of curves with an eye toward differential geometry is over a century old. However there is no general theory or methodology in the literature, despite the ubiquitous use of…
Outstanding questions in the study of relativistic jets in their various astrophysical settings are discussed in the context of a general dynamical model.
This thesis is devoted to algorithmic aspects of the implementation of Cartan's moving frame method to the problem of the equivalence of submanifolds under a Lie group action. We adopt a general definition of a moving frame as an…
