Recent work has shown that two-dimensional non-linear $\sigma$-models on group manifolds with Poisson-Lie symmetry can be understood within generalised geometry as exemplars of generalised parallelisable spaces. Here we extend this idea to…
Generalized complex geometry, introduced by Hitchin, encompasses complex and symplectic geometry as its extremal special cases. We explore the basic properties of this geometry, including its enhanced symmetry group, elliptic deformation…
The main goal of our paper is the study of several classes of submanifolds of generalized complex manifolds. Along with the generalized complex submanifolds defined by Gualtieri and Hitchin (we call these ``generalized Lagrangian…
We develop the theory of generalized bi-Hamiltonian reduction. Applying this theory to a suitable loop algebra we recover a generalized Drinfeld-Sokolov reduction. This gives a way to construct new examples of algebraic Frobenius manifolds.
We introduce the notion of a generalized complex (GC) Stein manifold and provide complete characterizations in three fundamental aspects. First, we extend Cartan's Theorem A and B within the framework of GC geometry. Next, we define…
The projective curvature tensor $P$ is invariant under a geodesic preserving transformation on a semi-Riemannian manifold. It is well known that $P$ is not a generalized curvature tensor and hence it possesses different geometric properties…
We present a generalized reduction procedure which encompasses the one based on the momentum map and the projection method. By using the duality between manifolds and ring of functions defined on them, we have cast our procedure in an…
We investigate geometric properties of homogeneous parabolic geometries with generalized symmetries. We show that they can be reduced to a simpler geometric structures and interpret them explicitly. For specific types of parabolic…
We show that the mean-field time dependent equations in the Phi^4 theory can be put into a classical non-canonical hamiltonian framework with a Poisson structure which is a generalization of the standard Poisson bracket. The Heisenberg…
Generalized complex geometry was classically formulated by the language of differential geometry. In this paper, we reformulated a generalized complex manifold as a holomorphic symplectic differentiable formal stack in a homotopical sense.…
Generalized complex geometry, as developed by Hitchin, contains complex and symplectic geometry as its extremal special cases. In this thesis, we explore novel phenomena exhibited by this geometry, such as the natural action of a B-field.…
The investigation of symmetries of b-symplectic manifolds and folded-symplectic manifolds is well-understood when the group under consideration is a torus (see, for instance, [GMPS,GLPR, GMW18a] for b-symplectic manifolds and [CGP, CM] for…
We first make a little survey of the twistor theory for hypercomplex, generalized hypercomplex, quaternionic or generalized quaternionic manifolds. This last theory was iniated by Pantilie, who shows that any generalized almost quaternionic…
We classify the admissible types of constraint (hermitian, holomorphic, with reality conditions on the bosonic sectors, etc.) for generalized supersymmetries in the presence of complex spinors. We further point out which constrained…
We study local normal forms for completely integrable systems on Poisson manifolds in the presence of additional symmetries. The symmetries that we consider are encoded in actions of compact Lie groups. The existence of Weinstein's…
In this work we study the integrability of quotients of quasi-Poisson manifolds. Our approach allows us to put several classical results about the integrability of Poisson quotients in a common framework. By categorifying one of the already…
We find a worldsheet realization of generalized complex geometry, a notion introduced recently by Hitchin which interpolates between complex and symplectic manifolds. The two-dimensional model we construct is a supersymmetric relative of…
Cartan geometry provides a unifying algebraic construction of curvature and torsion, based on an underlying model Lie algebra -- a viewpoint that can be extended naturally to the higher algebraic structures underlying supergravity. We…
We show how the theory of $\mathbb{Z}_2^n$ -manifolds - which are a non-trivial generalisation of supermanifolds - may be useful in a geometrical approach to mixed symmetry tensors such as the dual graviton. The geometric aspects of such…
We present general reduction procedures for Courant, Dirac and generalized complex structures, in particular when a group of symmetries is acting. We do so by taking the graded symplectic viewpoint on Courant algebroids and carrying out…
