We introduce a three-dimensional quantum field theory with an infinite-dimensional symmetry, realized explicitly through a centrally extended affine graded Lie algebra. This symmetry is a direct three-dimensional generalization of the…

We consider here the category of diffeological vector pseudo-bundles, and study a possible extension of classical differential geometric tools on finite dimensional vector bundles, namely, the group of automorphisms, the frame bundle, the…

In this article we give the realization of the Klein's Program for geometrical structures (Riemannian spaces and fiber bundles with connection) with arbitrary variable curvature within the framework of infinite deformed groups. These groups…

We extend finite dimensional Chern-Simons theory to certain infinite dimensional principal bundles with connections, in particular to the frame bundle $FLM\to LM$ over the loop space of a Riemannian manifold $M$. Chern-Simons forms are…

We show that compact complex manifolds of algebraic dimension zero bearing a holomorphic Cartan geometry of algebraic type have infinite fundamental group. This generalizes the main Theorem in [DM] where the same result was proved for the…

Many physically important mechanical systems may be described with a Lie group $G$ as configuration space. According to the well-known Noether's theorem, underlying symmetries of the Lie group may be used to considerably reduce the…

A set of coordinates in the non parametric loop-space is introduced. We show that these coordinates transform under infinite dimensional linear representations of the diffeomorphism group. An extension of the group of loops in terms of…

In this article we study convexity properties of distance functions in infinite dimensional Finsler unitary groups, such as the full unitary group, the unitary Schatten perturbations of the identity and unitary groups of finite von Neumann…

The Cartan development takes a Lie algebra valued 1-form satisfying the Maurer-Cartan equation on a simply connected manifold $M$ to a smooth mapping from $M$ into the Lie group. In this paper this is generalized to infinite dimensional $M$…

In this paper we propose a new treatment about infinite dimensional manifolds, using the language of category and functor. Our definition of infinite dimensional manifolds is a natural generalization of finite dimensional manifolds in the…

This paper defines a symplectic form on the infinite dimensional Fr\'echet manifold of framed curves of fixed length over a simply connected Riemannian manifold of constant curvature. The paper then considers Hamiltonian systems generated…

We construct generalised diffeomorphisms for E$_9$ exceptional field theory. The transformations, which like in the E$_8$ case contain constrained local transformations, close when acting on fields. This is the first example of a…

We first review some invariant theoretic results about the finite subgroups of SU(2) in a quick algebraic way by using the McKay correspondence and quantum affine Cartan matrices. By the way it turns out that some parameters (a,b,h;p,q,r)…

It is shown that the notion of W_\infty-algebra originally carried out over a (compact) Riemann surface can be extended to n complex dimensional (compact) manifolds within a symplectic geometrical setup. The relationships with the…

First-order general relativity in $n$ dimensions ($n \geq 3$) has an internal gauge symmetry that is the higher-dimensional generalization of three-dimensional local translations. We report the extension of this symmetry for $n$-dimensional…

Using Fedosov theory of deformation quantization of endomorphism bundle we construct several models of pure geometric, deformed vacuum gravity, corresponding to arbitrary symplectic noncommutativity tensor. Deformations of Einstein-Hilbert…

This talk introduces a Cartan-geometric framework for generalised geometries governed by a differential graded Lie algebra. In contrast to ordinary Cartan geometry, the tangent bundle is extended and qu both a global duality group and a…

For a class of Riemannian manifolds that include products of arbitrary compact manifolds with manifolds of nonpositive sectional curvature on the one hand, or with certain positive-curvature examples such as spheres of dimension at least 3…

This paper explores the application of Newton-Cartan geometry to the kinetic theory of gases that includes non-relativistic gravitational effects and the principle of general covariance. Starting with an introduction to the basics of…

We study the analytic and homotopy properties of some infinite dimensional Grassmannians, useful for developing a Morse theory for infinite dimensional manifolds. We study the space of Fredholm pairs of a Hilbert space, we determine its…
