We study a coderivation from a cobimodule into a coalgebra. Vector cofields are defined by the action of a codual bicomodule on a coalgebra. This action is induced by a codifferential. A construction of a codual object in the category of…

We consider manifolds with isolated singularities, i.e., topological spaces which are manifolds (say, $C^\infty$--) outside discrete subsets (sets of singular points). For (germs of) manifolds with, so called, cone--like singularities, a…

We study the category of modules admitting compatible actions of the Lie algebra $\mathcal{V}$ of vector fields on an affine space and the algebra $\mathcal{A}$ of polynomial functions. We show that modules in this category which are…

A notion of an algebroid - a generalization of a Lie algebroid structure is introduced. We show that many objects of the differential calculus on a manifold M associated with the canonical Lie algebroid structure on T^M can be obtained in…

A Lie 2-algebra is a "categorified" version of a Lie algebra: that is, a category equipped with structures analogous those of a Lie algebra, for which the usual laws hold up to isomorphism. In the classical mechanics of point particles, the…

I. M. Gelfand and D. B. Fuks have studied the cohomology of the Lie algebra of vector fields on a manifold. In this article, we generalize their main tools to compute the Leibniz cohomology, by extending the two spectral sequences…

These notes loosely follow an introductory course on graph complexes, held at Humboldt-Universit\"at zu Berlin in summer 23. Instead of simply typing up my lecture notes I decided to give here an overview over (parts of) the topic (lecture…

A complete set of inequivalent realizations of three- and four-dimensional real unsolvable Lie algebras in vector fields on a space of an arbitrary (finite) number of variables is obtained.

Given a chiral algebra, we study modules over an arbitrary power of a curve. We describe this category in three different ways: in terms of factorization, in terms of certain chiral operations and as modules for a lie algebra in a certain…

A non associative, noncommutative algebra is defined that may be interpreted as a set of vector modules over a noncommutative surface of rotation. Two of these vector modules are identified with the analogues of the tangent and cotangent…

We study the moduli space of four dimensional ordinary Lie algebras, and their versal deformations. Their classification is well known; our focus in this paper is on the deformations, which yield a picture of how the moduli space is…

Let $\mathbb{K}$ be a field, $R$ be an associative and commutative $\mathbb{K}$-algebra and $L$ be a Lie algebra over $\mathbb{K}$. We give some descriptions of injections from $L$ to Lie algebra of $\mathbb{K}$-derivations of $R$ in the…

The object of investigations are almost contact B-metric structures on 3-dimensional Lie groups considered as smooth manifolds. There are established the existence and some geometric characteristics of these manifolds in all basic classes.…

Infinitesimal symmetries of $S^1$-bundle gerbes are modelled with multiplicative vector fields on Lie groupoids. It is shown that a connective structure on a bundle gerbe gives rise to a natural horizontal lift of multiplicative vector…

Vector fields are a highly abstract physical concept that is often taught using visualizations. Although vector representations are particularly suitable for visualizing quantitative data, they are often confusing, especially when…

A ($2k+1$)$-$dimensional contact Lie algebra is one which admits a one-form $\varphi$ such that $\varphi \wedge (d\varphi)^k\ne0$. Such algebras have index one, but this is not generally a sufficient condition. Here we show that index-one…

The Lie algebra of vector fields on $R^m$ acts naturally on the spaces of differential operators between tensor field modules. Its projective subalgebra is isomorphic to $sl_{m+1}$, and its affine subalgebra is a maximal parabolic…

This note provides an affirmative answer to a question of Viterbo concerning the existence of nondiffeomorphic contact forms that share the same Reeb vector field. Starting from an observation by Croke-Kleiner and Abbondandolo that such…

Geometric structures on $\mathbb N Q$-manifolds, i.e.~non-negatively graded manifolds with an homological vector field, encode non-graded geometric data on Lie algebroids and their higher analogues. A particularly relevant class of…

This paper considers the multiplicative Hom-Lie superalgebra structures on infinite dimensional simple Lie superalgebras of vector fields with characteristic zero. The main result is that there is only the multiplicative Hom-Lie…
