We study closed, connected, spin 4-manifolds up to stabilisation by connected sums with copies of $S^2 \times S^2$. For a fixed fundamental group, there are primary, secondary and tertiary obstructions, which together with the signature…
Consider the diagonal action of the special orthogonal group on the direct sum of a finite number of copies of the standard representation--the underlying field is assumed to be algebraically closed and of characteristic not equal to two.…
This note gives a uniform, self-contained, and fairly direct approach to a variety of obstruction-theoretic problems on 8-manifolds. We give necessary and sufficient cohomological critera for the existence of almost complex and almost…
We find the group of equivalence transformations for equations of the form $y''= A(x)y' + F(y),$ where $A$ and $F$ are arbitrary functions. We then give a complete group classification of these families of equations, using a direct method…
We study anomalies of non-invertible duality symmetries in both 2d and 4d, employing the tool of the Symmetry TFT. In the 2d case we rephrase the known obstruction theory for the Tambara-Yamagami fusion category in a way easily…
In the present paper we consider the problem of local equivalence of second order ODEs which are cubic in second derivative under the action of the pseudogroup of contact transformations. We show how it may be reduced to the equivalence…
Second order ordinary differential equations of the form $y'' = P(x,y) + 4 Q(x,y) y' + 6 R(x,y) y'^2 + 4 S(x,y) y'^3 + L(x,y) y'^4$ are considered and their point-expansions are constructed. Geometrical structures connected with these…
This paper gives a uniform, self-contained and direct approach to a variety of obstruction-theoretic problems on manifolds of dimension 7 and 6. We give necessary and sufficient cohomological criteria for the existence of various…
We introduce (binary) Darboux transformation for general differential equation of the second order in two independent variables. We present a discrete version of the transformation for a 6-point difference scheme. The scheme is appropriate…
In the present paper we establish the necessary and sufficient conditions for two generalized Abel differential equations to be locally equivalent under the action of the pseudogroup of linear transformations of the form $\{x\mapsto f(x),~…
We study smooth maps between smooth manifolds with only fold points as their singularities, and clarify the obstructions to the existence of such a map in a given homotopy class for certain dimensions. The obstructions are described in…
The obstruction to construct a Lagrangian bundle over a fixed integral affine manifold was constructed by Dazord and Delzant in \cite{daz_delz} and shown to be given by `twisted' cup products in \cite{sepe_lag}. This paper uses the topology…
We prove a criterion stating when a line bundle on a smooth coisotropic subvariety Y of a smooth variety X with an algebraic Poisson structure, admits a first order deformation quantization.
We study substructures of the Weyl group of conformal transformations of the metric of (pseudo)Riemannian manifolds. These substructures are identified by differential constraints on the conformal factors of the transformations which are…
Given a principal bundle G \rightarrow P \rightarrow B (each being compact, connected and oriented) and a G-invariant metric h^{P} on P which induces a volume form \mu^{P}, we consider the group of all unimodular automorphisms…
It is a classic result that the geometry of the total space of a principal bundle with reference to the action of the bundle's structure group is codified in the bundle's operation, a collection of derivations comprising the de Rham…
In this paper we establish a notion of deformation quantization of a surjective submersion which is specialized further to the case of a principal fibre bundle: the functions on the total space are deformed into a right module for the star…
We study differential invariants of the third order linear differential operators and use them to find conditions for equivalence of differential operators acting in line bundles on two dimensional manifolds with respect to groups of…
In this paper we \emph{explicitly} compute the transformation that maps the generic second order differential equation $y''= f(x, y, y')$ to the Painlev\'e first equation $y''=6y^2+x$ (resp. the Painlev\'e second equation ${y''=2 y^{3}+yx+…
For a principal $\rmSU(n)$-bundle over a compact manifold of dimension $2,3,4$, we determine the orbit types of the action of the gauge group on the space of connections modulo pointed local gauge transformations. We find that they are…
