We address the problem of the existence of a Lagrangian for a given system of linear PDEs with constant coefficients. As a subtask, this involves bringing the system into a pre-Lagrangian form, wherein the number of equations matches the…

Using the theory of extensors developed in a previous paper we present a theory of the parallelism structure on arbitrary smooth manifold. Two kinds of Cartan connection operators are introduced and both appear in intrinsic versions (i.e.,…

Let $M$ be a compact complex manifold, and $D\, \subset\, M$ a reduced normal crossing divisor on it, such that the logarithmic tangent bundle $TM(-\log D)$ is holomorphically trivial. Let ${\mathbb A}$ denote the maximal connected subgroup…

We establish a homotopy-theoretic description of the homology of stable moduli spaces of $(2n+1)$-dimensional manifold triads $(N, \partial^h N, \partial^v N)$ with fixed $\partial^v N$, whenever $n \geq 3$ and $(N, \partial^h N)$ is…

The universal Spencer and de Rham complexes of sheaves over a smooth or analytical manifold are well known to play a basic role in the theory of $\mathcal{D}$-modules. In this article we consider a double complex of sheaves generalizing…

We consider the variational complex on infinite jet space and the complex of variational derivatives for Lagrangians of multidimensional paths and study relations between them. The discussion of the variational (bi)complex is set up in…

A linear connection on a Lie algebroid is called a Cartan connection if it is suitably compatible with the Lie algebroid structure. Here we show that a smooth connected manifold $M$ is locally homogeneous - i.e., admits an atlas of charts…

Anti-selfdual Lagrangians on a state space lift to path space provided one adds a suitable selfdual boundary Lagrangian. This process can be iterated by considering the path space as a new state space for the newly obtained anti-selfdual…
