We introduce the notion of generalized function taking values in a smooth manifold into the setting of full Colombeau algebras. After deriving a number of characterization results we also introduce a corresponding concept of generalized…

In this paper we use a generalized vector product to construct an exterior form $\wedge :(\mathbb{R}^{n}) ^{k}\to \mathbb{R}^{\binom{n}{k}}$, where $\binom{n}{k}=\frac{n!}{(n-k)!k!}$, $k\leq n$. Finally, for $n=k-1$ we introduce the…

We present a substantial generalisation of a classical result by Lie on integrability by quadratures. Namely, we prove that all vector fields in a finite-dimensional transitive and solvable Lie algebra of vector fields on a manifold can be…

We consider a family of vector fields and we assume a horizontal regularity on their derivatives. We discuss the notion of commutator showing that different definitions agree. We apply our results to the proof of a ball-box theorem and…

We demonstrate that the notions of derivative representation of a Lie algebra on a vector bundle, of semi-linear representations of a Lie group on a vector bundle, and related concepts, may be understood in terms of representations of Lie…

The principal objective of this paper is to determine the structure of $n$-Lie derivations ($n\geq 3$) on generalized matrix algebras.It is shown that under certain mild assumptions, every $n$-Lie derivation can be decomposed into the sum…

The notion of a generalized Lie bialgebroid (a generalization of the notion of a Lie bialgebroid) is introduced in such a way that a Jacobi manifold has associated a canonical generalized Lie bialgebroid. As a kind of converse, we prove…
