This is the second of a series of papers which are devoted to a comprehensive theory of maps between orbifolds. In this paper, we develop a basic machinery for studying homotopy classes of such maps. It contains two parts: (1) the…
In geometry, understanding the topologies and the differentiable structures of manifolds in constructive ways is fundamental and important. It is in general difficult, especially for higher dimensional manifolds. The author is interested in…
For an arbitrary semisimple Frobenius manifold we construct Hodge integrable hierarchy of Hamiltonian partial differential equations. In the particular case of quantum cohomology the tau-function of a solution to the hierarchy generates the…
In this paper, we extend the iterated integrals from smooth manifolds to digraphs and develop the associated algebraic and geometric structures. Iterated integrals on a digraph naturally give rise to the iterated path algebra and the…
Virtually every known pair of isospectral but nonisometric manifolds - with as most famous members isospectral bounded $\mathbb{R}$-planar domains which makes one "not hear the shape of a drum" [13] - arise from the (group theoretical)…
If $G$ is a Lie group, $H\subset G$ is a closed subgroup, and $\tau$ is a unitary representation of $H$, then the authors give a sufficient condition on $\xi\in i\mathfrak{g}^*$ to be in the wave front set of $\operatorname{Ind}_H^G\tau$.…
Let G be a noncompact real semisimple Lie group. The regular coadjoint orbits of G can be partitioned into a finite set of types. We show that on each regular orbit, the Iwasawa decomposition induces a left-invariant foliation which is…
Splitting invariants describe how a plane curve "splits" by the pull-back under a Galois cover over the projective plane whose branch locus contains no component of the plane curve. They enable us to distinguish the embedded topology of…
Let $G$ be a compact connected semisimple Lie group. We extend the techniques of Weinstein [W] to give a construction in group cohomology of symplectic forms $\omega$ on \lq twisted' moduli spaces of representations of the fundamental group…
For any differential graded (DG for short) Poisson algebra $A$ given by generators and relations, we give a "formula" for computing the universal enveloping algebra $A^e$ of $A$. Moreover, we prove that $A^e$ has a Poincar\'e-Birkhoff-Witt…
Let $M$ be a smooth manifold. We use Chern-Weil theory to study the characteristic classes of principal $G$-bundles built from continuous families of $\pi_{1}(M)$-representations, where $G$ is a compact Lie group. We then relate these…
The Heisenberg-Weyl group $HW(d)$ related to a $d$-dimensional Hilbert space $H(d)$, is enlarged into the Heisenberg-Weyl-parity group $HWP(d)$ that incorporates parity transformations. It consists of $2d^3$ elements, of which $d^3$…
Differential forms on the Fr\'echet manifold F(S,M) of smooth functions on a compact k-dimensional manifold S can be obtained in a natural way from pairs of differential forms on M and S by the hat pairing. Special cases are the…
Let $(\Sigma,p)$ be a pointed Riemann surface of genus $g\geq 1$. For any integer $k\geq 1$, we parametrize the space of meromorphic quadratic differentials on $\Sigma$ with a pole of order $(k+2)$ at $p$, having a connected critical graph…
Both bi-harmonic map and $f$-harmonic map have nice physical motivation and applications. In this paper, by combination of these two harmonic maps, we introduce and study $f$-bi-harmonic maps as the critical points of the $f$-bi-energy…
Let $W$ be a domain in a connected complex manifold $M$ and $w_0\in W$. Let ${\mathcal A}_{w_0}(W,M)$ be the space of all continuous mappings of a closed unit disk $\overline D$ into $M$ that are holomorphic on the interior of $\overline…
In this article we investigate a monoid of smooth mappings on the space of arrows of a Lie groupoid and its group of units. The group of units turns out to be an infinite-dimensional Lie group which is regular in the sense of Milnor.…
We introduce a new construction, the isotropy groupoid, to organize the orbit data for split $\Gamma$-spaces. We show that equivariant principal $G$-bundles over split $\Gamma$-CW complexes $X$ can be effectively classified by means of…
We develop a loop group (DPW-type) representation for minimal Lagrangian surfaces in the complex quadric $Q_{2}\cong \mathbb S^{2}\times \mathbb S^{2}$, formulated via a flat family of connections $\{\nabla^\lambda\}_{\lambda\in \mathbb…
Let $M^m$ be an oriented manifold, let $N^{m-1}$ be an oriented closed manifold, and let $p$ be a point in $M^m$. For a smooth map $f:N^{m-1} \to M^m, p \not\in Im f,$ we introduce an invariant $awin_p(f)$ that can be regarded as a…
