Base of fibered correspondence is arbitrary correspondence. Fibered correspondence is interesting when we consider relationship between different bundles. However composition of fibered correspondences may not always be defined. Reduced…
We study equations on a principal bundle over a compact complex manifold coupling a connection on the bundle with a Kahler structure on the base. These equations generalize the conditions of constant scalar curvature for a Kahler metric and…
We formulate the non-commutative integrability of contact systems on a contact manifold $(M,\mathcal H)$ using the Jacobi structure on the space of sections $\Gamma(L)$ of a contact line bundle $L$. In the cooriented case, if the line…
Consider a fiber bundle in which the total space, the base space and the fiber are all symplectic manifolds. We study the relations between the quantization of these spaces. In particular, we discuss the geometric quantization of a vector…
We consider normal almost contact structures on a Riemannian manifold and, through their associated sections of an ad-hoc twistor bundle, study their harmonicity, as sections or as maps. We rewrite these harmonicity equations in terms of…
We construct symplectic submanifolds of symplectic manifolds with contact border. The boundary of such submanifolds is shown to be a contact submanifold of the contact border. We also give a topological characterization of the constructed…
We survey what is known about various special types of submanifolds of contact manifolds and discuss their role in the development of contact geometry.
In a previous paper [BTF21] the authors employed the fiber join construction of Yamazaki [Yam99] together with the admissible construction of Apostolov, Calderbank, Gauduchon, and T{\o}nnesen-Friedman [ACGTF08a] to construct new extremal…
We introduce the concepts of a multisymplectic structure and a polysymplectic structure on a general fiber bundle over a general base manifold, define the concept of the symbol of a multisymplectic form, which is a polysymplectic form…
Any leafwise connection on a fibre bundle over a foliated manifold is proved to come from a connection on this fibre bundle.
We present an approach to Jacobi and contact geometry that makes many facts, presented in the literature in an overcomplicated way, much more natural and clear. The key concepts are Kirillov manifolds and linear Kirillov structures, i.e.,…
Using contact homology, we reobtain some recent results of Geiges and Gonzalo about the fundamental group of the space of contact structures on some 3-manifolds. We show that our techniques can be used to study higher dimensional contact…
Transports along path in fibre bundles are axiomatically introduced. Their general functional form and some their simple properties are investigated. The relationships of the transports along paths and lifting of paths are studied.
This work is devoted to new constructions of symplectically fat fiber bundles. The latter are constructed in two ways: using the Kirwan map and expressing the fatness condition in terms of the isotropy representation related to the…
Around 1920, Kaluza and Klein had the idea to add a fifth dimension to the classical 4-dimensional spacetime of general relativity to create a geometric theory of gravitation and electromagnetism. Today, theoretical evidences, like string…
In this paper, we determine the group of contact transformations modulo contact isotopies for Legendrian circle bundles over closed surfaces of nonpositive Euler characteristic. These results extend and correct those presented by the first…
We define metric bundles/metric graph bundles which provide a purely topological/coarse-geometric generalization of the notion of trees of metric spaces a la Bestvina-Feighn in the special case that the inclusions of the edge spaces into…
It is shown that the space of null geodesics of a star-shaped causally simple subset of Minkowski space is contactomorphic to the canonical contact structure in the spherical cotangent bundle of $\mathbb{R}^n$. In the $3$-dimensional case…
