We introduce and study the notion of plurisubharmonic functions in calibrated geometry. These functions generalize the classical plurisubharmonic functions from complex geometry and enjoy their important properties. Moreover, they exist in…

A differential algebra of nonlinear generalized functions is presented as a tool for a wide range of nonsmooth nonlinear problems. The power of the differential algebra is used to do mathematical calculations or proofs; then the final…
Recently, a geometrical characterization of vector spaces served to generalize them into a new class of algebras. Instead of the algebraic properties of the underlying fields, we generalized the recently discovered property of such spaces…
In this paper, we generalize the Gauduchon metrics on a compact complex manifold and define the $\gamma_k$ functions on the space of its hermitian metrics.
This is the fourth part in the series of articles math.MG/0503397, math.MG/0503399, math.MG/0509512 where the theory of valuations on manifolds is developed. In this part it is shown that the filtration on valuations introduced in…
We use localization techniques to calculate the Euclidean partition functions for $\mathcal{N}=1$ theories on four-dimensional manifolds $M$ of the form $S^1 \times M_3$, where $M_3$ is a circle bundle over a Riemann surface. These are…

Stable fold maps are fundamental tools in a generalization of the theory of Morse functions on smooth manifolds and its application to studies of topological properties of smooth manifolds. Round fold maps were introduced as stable fold…
In this paper, we investigate the concepts of generalized twice differentiability and quadratic bundles of nonsmooth functions that have been very recently proposed by Rockafellar in the framework of second-order variational analysis. These…
We define the notion of generalized logarithmic sheaves on a smooth projective surface, associated to a pair consisting of a reduced curve and some fixed points on it. We then set up the study of the Torelli property in this setting,…
In connection with the classical Schwartz kernel theorem, we show that in the framework of Colombeau generalized functions a large class of linear mappings admit integral kernels. To do this, we need to introduce news spaces of generalized…
We present the construction of an associative, commutative algebra $\hat {\mathcal G}$ of generalized functions on a manifold $X$ satisfying the following optimal set of permanence properties: (i)The space of distributions on $X$ is…
We outline a cohomological treatment for multivalued (classical) action functionals. We point out that an application of Takens' theorem, after Zuckerman, Deligne and Freed, allows to conclude that multivalued functionals yield globally…
The aim of this paper is to give a new description of the geometry appearing in the multi-specialization along a general family of submanifolds of a real analytic manifold (including some important cases as clean intersection or a…
The notion of projection families generalizes the classical notions of vector- and operator-valued measures. We show that projection families are general enough to extend the Spectral Theorem to Banach algebras and operators between Banach…

In this paper we focus on functions of the form $A^n\rightarrow \mathcal{P}(B)$, for possibly different arbitrary non-empty sets $A$ and $B$, and where $\mathcal{P}(B)$ denotes the set of all subsets of $B$. These mappings are called…
