Given a Finsler space (M,F) on a manifold M, the averaging method associates to Finslerian geometric objects affine geometric objects} living on $M$. In particular, a Riemannian metric is associated to the fundamental tensor $g$ and an…
The main results on the theory of conformal and almost Grassmann structures are presented. The common properties of these structures and also the differences between them are outlined. In particular, the structure groups of these structures…
This note pertains to isometric embeddings endowed with certain geometric properties. We study two embedding problems for a Riemannian manifold $M$ which is diffeomorphic to $\RR^n$ and admits a Bieberbach group $\Gamma$ acting by…
Continuous formal deformations of the Poisson superbracket defined on compactly supported smooth functions on R^2 taking values in a Grassmann algebra with N generating elements are described up to an equivalence transformation for N \ne 2.
We characterize general pseudo-harmonic morphisms from a Riemannian manifold to a Hermitian manifold as pseudo horizontally weakly conformal maps with an additional property. We study to what extent we can (locally) describe these…
We introduce a Fefferman-type construction that associates an almost Grassmannian structure of type $(2,n+1)$ to every $(n+1)$-dimensional path geometry. We prove that the construction is normal and provide two equivalent characterizing…
In this short note, completing a sequence of studies by Cooperstein, Kasikova and Shult, we consider the k-Grassmannians of a number of polar geometries of finite rank n. We classify those subspaces that are isomorphic to the j-Grassmannian…
This text is an introductory review of the basic concepts of the theory of semi-Riemannian geometry on real finite-dimensional manifolds without boundary.
Spine spaces can be considered as fragments of a projective Grassmann space. We prove that the structure of lines together with binary coplanarity relation, as well as with binary relation of being in one pencil of lines, is a sufficient…
For the Riemannian manifold $M^{n}$ two special connections on the sum of the tangent bundle $TM^{n}$ and the trivial one-dimensional bundle are constructed. These connections are flat if and only if the space $M^{n}$ has a constant…
Denote by $\mathbb G(k,n)$ the Grassmannian of linear subspaces of dimension $k$ in $\mathbb P^n$. We show that if $n>m$ then every morphism $\varphi: \mathbb G(k,n) \to \mathbb G(l,m)$ is constant.
Modern machine learning increasingly leverages the insight that high-dimensional data often lie near low-dimensional, non-linear manifolds, an idea known as the manifold hypothesis. By explicitly modeling the geometric structure of data…
Given an $m$-dimensional closed connected Riemannian manifold $M$ smoothly isometrically immersed in an $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold $N$, we estimate the diameter of $M$ in terms of its mean curvature field integral under some…
The Grassmannians of lines in projective N-space, G(1,N), are embedded by way of the Pl"ucker embedding in the projective space P(\bigwedge^2 C^{N+1}). Let H^l be a general l-codimensional linear subspace in this projective space. We…
We describe for any Riemannian manifold a certain infinitesimal neighbourhood of the diagonal. Semi-conformal maps are analyzed as those that preserve such neighbourhoods; harmonic maps are analyzed as those that preserve mirror image…
For any semi-Riemannian manifold (M,g) we define some generalized curvature tensor as a linear combination of Kulkarni-Nomizu products formed by the metric tensor, the Ricci tensor and its square of given manifold. That tensor is closely…
The supersymmetric Poisson Sigma model is studied as a possible worldsheet realization of generalized complex geometry. Generalized complex structures alone do not guarantee non-manifest N=(2,1) or N=(2,2) supersymmetry, but a certain…
In this article we show how holomorphic Riemannian geometry can be used to relate certain submanifolds in one pseudo-Riemannian space to submanifolds with corresponding geometric properties in other spaces. In order to do so, we shall first…
We introduce a simple procedure to integrate differential forms with arbitrary holomorphic poles on Riemann surfaces. It gives rise to an intrinsic regularization of such singular integrals in terms of the underlying conformal geometry.…
Based on the notion of dilatation structure arXiv:math/0608536, we give an intrinsic treatment to sub-riemannian geometry, started in the paper arXiv:0706.3644 . Here we prove that regular sub-riemannian manifolds admit dilatation…
