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…

A Lie groupoid can be thought of as a generalization of a Lie group in which the multiplication is only defined for certain pairs of elements. From another perspective, Lie groupoids can be regarded as manifolds endowed with a type of…

Affine structures on a Lie groupoid, including affine $k$-vector fields, $k$-forms and $(p,q)$-tensors are studied. We show that the space of affine structures is a 2-vector space over the space of multiplicative structures. Moreover, the…

Since their introduction, Lie group integrators have become a method of choice in many application areas. Various formulations of these integrators exist, and in this work we focus on Runge--Kutta--Munthe--Kaas methods. First, we briefly…

We consider all connected and simply connected 7-dimensional Lie groups whose Lie algebras have nilradical $\g_{5,2} = \s \{X_1, X_2, X_3, X_4, X_5 \colon [X_1, X_2] = X_4, [X_1, X_3] = X_5\}$ of Dixmier. First, we give a geometric…

Lie systems form a class of systems of first-order ordinary differential equations whose general solutions can be described in terms of certain finite families of particular solutions and a set of constants, by means of a particular type of…

A smooth foliation is Riemannian when its leaves are locally equidistant. The closures of the leaves of a Riemannian foliation on a simply connected manifold, or more generally of a Killing foliation, are described by flows of transverse…

We study multiplicative Dirac structures on Lie groups. We show that the characteristic foliation of a multiplicative Dirac structure is given by the cosets of a normal Lie subgroup and, whenever this subgroup is closed, the leaf space…

Coarse-grained models that preserve hydrodynamics provide a natural approach to study collective properties of soft-matter systems. Here, we demonstrate that commonly used integration schemes in dissipative particle dynamics give rise to…

We consider an integrable Hamiltonian system with n-degrees of freedom whose first integrals are invariant under the symplectic action of a compact Lie group G. We prove that the singular Lagrangian foliation associated to this Hamiltonian…

We describe a local model for any Singular Riemannian Foliation in a neighbourhood of a closed saturated submanifold of a regular stratum. Moreover we construct a Lie groupoid which controls the transverse geometry of the linear…

Foliations in the complex projective plane are uniquely determined by their singular locus, which is in correspondence with a zero-dimensional ideal. However, this correspondence is not surjective. We give conditions to determine whether an…

In this paper we revisit a Poincare lemma for foliated forms, with respect to a regular foliation, and compute the foliated cohomology for local models of integrable systems with singularities of nondegenerate type. A key point in this…

Using Morita type stratifications, we establish a one-to-one correspondence between geometric vector fields on a separated differentiable stack and stratified vector fields on its orbit space. This correspondence enables us to derive a…
