A theory of double affine and special double affine bundles, i.e. differential manifolds with two compatible (special) affine bundle structures, is developed as an affine counterpart of the theory of double vector bundles. The motivation…
In the main part of this paper a connection is just a fiber projection onto a (not necessarily integrable) distribution or sub vector bundle of the tangent bundle. Here curvature is computed via the Froelicher-Nijenhuis bracket, and it is…
In a fibre bundle, natural derivatives of a section are defined as tangent vector fields on the image of a section of the fibre bundle. A local extension to vector fields in the tangent bundle leads to a direct proof of the formula…
This paper, sixth in a series of eight, uses the geometric calculus on manifolds developed in previous papers of the series to introduce through the concept of a metric extensor field g a metric structure for a smooth manifold M. The…
We consider invariant covariant derivatives on reductive homogeneous spaces corresponding to the well-known invariant affine connections. These invariant covariant derivatives are expressed in terms of horizontally lifted vector fields on…
Multipath cohomology is a cohomology theory for directed graphs, which is defined using the path poset. The aim of this paper is to investigate combinatorial properties of path posets, and to provide computational tools for multipath…
Hypertrees are high-dimensional counterparts of graph theoretic trees. They have attracted a great deal of attention by various investigators. Here we introduce and study Hyperpaths -- a particular class of hypertrees which are high…
Transports preserving the angle between two contravariant vector fields but changing their lengths proportional to their own lengths are introduced as ''conformal'' transports and investigated over spaces with contravariant and covariant…
Theories describing electrical transport in semiconductor superlattices can essentially be divided in three disjoint categories: i) transport in a miniband; ii) hopping between Wannier-Stark ladders; and iii) sequential tunneling. We…
We address the following question: Given a differentiable manifold $M$ what are the open subsets $U$ of $M$ such that, for all vector bundles $E$ over $M$ and all linear connections $\nabla$ on $E$, any $\nabla$-parallel section in $E$…
This study first provides a brief overview of the structure of typical Grassmann manifolds. Then a new type of supergrassmannians is construced using an odd involution in a super ringed space and by gluing superdomains together. Next,…
We present a quantum transport theory for hybrid superconducting systems based on our exact master equation approach. The total transient transport current is decomposed into components that describe coherent transports through different…
A recently-developed theory of quantum general relativity provides a propagator for free-falling particles in curved spacetimes. These propagators are constructed by parallel-transporting quantum states within a quantum bundle associated to…
Transports preserving the angle between two contravariant vector fields but changing their lengths proportional to their own lengths are introduced as `conformal' transports and investigated over spaces with one affine connection and…
In quantum mechanics, the momentum space and position space wave functions are related by the Fourier transform. We investigate how the Fourier transform arises in the context of geometric quantization. We consider a Hilbert space bundle H…
Road network is a critical infrastructure powering many applications including transportation, mobility and logistics in real life. To leverage the input of a road network across these different applications, it is necessary to learn the…
We study infinitesimal deformations of autodual and hyper-holomorphic connections on complex vector bundles on hyper-K\"ahler manifolds of arbitrary dimension. In particular, we describe the DG Lie algebra controlling this deformation…
Let ${\mathcal M}$ be a moduli space of stable vector bundles of rank $r$ and determinant $\xi$ on a compact Riemann surface $X$. Fix a semistable holomorphic vector bundle $F$ on $X$ such that $\chi(E\otimes F)= 0$ for $E \in \mathcal M$.…
In the holomorphic or algebraic setting we consider a vector bundle E on a smooth subvariety X in a smooth variety Y over a field of characteristic zero. Assuming E extends to the l-th neighborhood of X in Y, we study cohomological…
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.,…
