We continue a previous analysis of the covariant Hamiltonian symplectic structure of General Relativity for spatially bounded regions of spacetime. To allow for near complete generality, the Hamiltonian is formulated using any fixed…
The theory of Lie algebras can be categorified starting from a new notion of "2-vector space", which we define as an internal category in Vect. There is a 2-category 2Vect having these 2-vector spaces as objects, "linear functors" as…
Certain dissipative physical systems closely resemble Hamiltonian systems in $\mathbb{R}^{2n}$, but with the canonical equation for one of the variables in each conjugate pair rescaled by a real parameter. To generalise these dynamical…
Constrained Hamiltonian systems fall into the realm of presymplectic geometry. We show, however, that also Poisson geometry is of use in this context. For the case that the constraints form a closed algebra, there are two natural Poisson…
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…
In this work we introduce the category of multiplicative sections of an $\la$-groupoid. We prove that this category carries natural strict Lie 2-algebra structures, which are Morita invariant. As applications, we study the algebraic…
We consider canonical symplectic structure on the moduli space of flat ${\g}$-connections on a Riemann surface of genus $g$ with $n$ marked points. For ${\g}$ being a semisimple Lie algebra we obtain an explicit efficient formula for this…
In this paper, we study invariant Poisson structures on homogeneous manifolds, which serve as a natural generalization of homogeneous symplectic manifolds previously explored in the literature. Our work begins by providing an algebraic…
This is a short presentation of some classical results on finite dimensional complex Lie algebras (classification of nilpotent Lie algebras, deformations and perturbations, contractions and rigidity). We present some applications to…
We develop a general approach to study geometric flows on homogeneous spaces. Our main tool will be a dynamical system defined on the variety of Lie algebras called the bracket flow, which coincides with the original geometric flow after a…
A differential form defined on a Riemannian manifold is said to harmonic if it is closed and co-closed. Harmonic differential forms are a natural multi-dimensional extension of the concept of analytic function of complex variable. In this…
The geometric theory of pseudo-differential and Fourier Integral Operators relies on the symplectic structure of cotangent bundles. If one is to study calculi with some specific feature adapted to a geometric situation, the corresponding…
Let $X$ be a manifold with a bi-Poisson structure $\{\eta^t\}$ generated by a pair of $G$-invariant symplectic structures $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$, where the Lie group $G$ acts properly on $X$. Let $H$ be some isotropy subgroup for this…
We define a contact metric structure on the manifold corresponding to a second order ordinary differential equation $d^2y/dx^2=f(x,y,y')$ and show that the contact metric structure is Sasakian if and only if the 1-form $\frac{1}{2}(dp-fdx)$…
Given a geometric structure on $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ with $n$ even (e.g. Euclidean, symplectic, Minkowski, pseudo-Euclidean), we analyze the set of points inside the domain of definition of an arbitrary given $\mathcal{C}^1$ vector field, where…
We introduce natural differential geometric structures underlying the Poisson-Vlasov equations in momentum variables. We decompose the space of all vector fields over particle phase space into a semi-direct product algebra of Hamiltonian…
We study the geometry induced on the local orbit spaces of Killing vector fields on (Riemannian) $G$-manifolds, with an emphasis on the cases $G={\rm Spin}(7)$ and $G=G_2$. Along the way, we classify the harmonic morphisms with…
Let $G$ be a Lie group, and let $(M,\omega)$ be a symplectic manifold. If $G$ admits a Hamiltonian action on $(M,\omega)$ with momentum map $\mu$, then $M$, the zero-level set of $\mu$, the orbit space, and the corresponding symplectic…
A Theorem due to Guillemin and Sternberg about geometric quantization of Hamiltonian actions of compact Lie groups $G$ on compact Kaehler manifolds says that the dimension of the $G$-invariant subspace is equal to the Riemann-Roch number of…
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.
