We consider 5-dimensional Lie groups with left-invariant Riemannian metrics. For such groups we give a partial classification of left-invariant conformal foliations with minimal leaves of codimension 2. These foliations produce local…
We study the Galois groupoid of a holomorphic singular codimension one foliation. Geometric and algebraic caracterisations using Godbillon-Vey sequences and classical first integral are given.
The local classification of conformally flat Lorentzian manifolds with special holonomy groups is obtained. The corresponding local metrics are certain extensions of Riemannian spaces of constant sectional curvature to Walker metrics.
We study left-invariant foliations $\mathcal{F}$ on Riemannian Lie groups $G$ generated by a subgroup $K$. We are interested in such foliations which are conformal and with minimal leaves of codimension two. We classify such foliations…
Holonomy groups and holonomy algebras for connections on locally free sheaves over supermanifolds are introduced. A one-to-one correspondence between parallel sections and holonomy-invariant vectors, and a one-to-one correspondence between…
We give a "conceptual" approach to Kourganoff's results about foliations with a transverse similarity structure. In particular, we give a proof, understandable by the targeted community, of the very important result classifying the holonomy…
We study Lie foliations on compact manifolds whose transverse group is \emph{metabelian} (a natural generalization of the affine group $\GA$ considered in earlier work). We establish a complete classification of $\GA$-Lie foliations in…
Molino's description of Riemannian foliations on compact manifolds is generalized to the setting of compact equicontinuous foliated spaces, in the case where the leaves are dense. In particular, a structural local group is associated to…
In a previous paper ([1]), we associated a holonomy groupoid and a C*-algebra to any singular foliation (M,F). Using these, we construct the associated pseudodifferential calculus. This calculus gives meaning to a Laplace operator of any…
We give a rather general construction of double categories and so, under further conditions, double groupoids, from a structure we call a `double module'. We also give a homotopical construction of a double groupoid from a triad consisting…
We discuss the basic properties of Lie groupoids, Lie algebroids and Lie pseudo-groups in view of applying these techniques to the analysis of Jordan-H\"older resolutions and, subsequently, to the integration of partial differential…
We introduce horizontal holonomy groups, which are groups defined using parallel transport only along curves tangent to a given subbundle $D$ of the tangent bundle. We provide explicit means of computing these holonomy groups by deriving…
We construct a category equivalent to the category $\mathbf{Mon}$ of monoids and monoid homomorphisms, based on categories with strict factorization systems. This equivalence is then extended to the category $\mathbf{Mon_s}$ of unital…
The aim of this paper is to explain, mostly through examples, what groupoids are and how they describe symmetry. We will begin with elementary examples, with discrete symmetry, and end with examples in the differentiable setting which…
A Lie groupoid, called \textit{second-order non-holonomic material Lie groupoid}, is associated in a natural way to any Cosserat media. This groupoid is used to give a new definition of homogeneity which does not depend on a reference…
We construct harmonic morphisms on the compact simple Lie group G2. The construction uses eigenfamilies in a representation theoretic scheme.
We introduce a notion of equivalence on tilings which is formulated in terms of their local structure. We compare it with the known concept of locally deriving one tiling from another and show that two tilings of finite type are…
We define and study the invariant linear and nonlinear horizontal double complexes of a local Lie group.
This article continues the study of diagrams in the bicategory of \'etale groupoid correspondences. We prove that any such diagram has a groupoid model and that the groupoid model is a locally compact \'etale groupoid if the diagram is…
The topological Molino's description of equicontinuous foliated spaces, studied by the first author and Moreira Galicia, gives conditions to reduce their study to the particular case where the holonomy pseudogroup can be represented by a…
