Motivated by the desire of finding a geometric interpretation to the Yamabe equation on groups of Heisenberg type, we define a geometric structure on manifolds modelled locally on these groups, which we call contact structure of Heisenberg…

In this paper it is shown that the space of tight geodesic segments connecting any two vertices in a complex of cycles has finite, uniformly bounded dimension. The dimension is defined in terms of a discrete analogue of Jacobi fields, which…

In this note we derive a formalism for describing equivariant sheaves over toric varieties. This formalism is a generalization of a correspondence due to Klyachko, which states that equivariant vector bundles on toric varieties are…

Suppose $K$ is a knot in a 3-manifold $Y$, and that $Y$ admits a pair of distinct contact structures. Assume that $K$ has Legendrian representatives in each of these contact structures, such that the corresponding Thurston-Bennequin…

Weak contact metric manifolds, i.e., the linear complex structure on the contact distribution is replaced by a nonsingular skew-symmetric tensor, defined by the author and R. Wolak, allowed us to take a new look at the theory of contact…

Integrable Hamiltonian systems on symplectic manifolds have been well-studied. However, an intrinsic property of these kind of systems is that they can only live on even dimensional manifolds. To introduce a similar notion of integrability…

We generalize the Drinfeld-Sokolov formalism of bosonic integrable hierarchies to superspace, in a way which systematically leads to the zero curvature formulation for the supersymmetric integrable systems starting from the Lax equation in…

We review the construction of almost contact metric (three-) structures, abbreviated ACM(3)S, on manifolds with a $G_2$ structure. These are of interest for certain supersymmetric configurations in string and M-theory. We compute the…

We characterise the quotient surface graphs arising from symmetric contact systems of line segments in the plane and also from symmetric pointed pseudotriangulations in the case where the group of symmetries is generated by a translation or…

We determine the solution to the classical master equation for a 3D topological field theory with Wess-Zumino term and an underlying geometrical structure of a twisted R-Poisson manifold on its target space. The graded geometry of the…

A theory of Symplectic Manifold with Contact Degeneracies (SMCD) was developed in [Zot'ev,2007]. The symplectic geometry employs an anti-symmetric tensor (closed differential form) such as a field tensor used in the classical field theory.…

It is established that the existence of non-isotropic vector field which Jacobi operator of maximal rank is an obstacle for the existence of non-trivial second-order symmetric parallel tensor field. In turns out that presence of such…

In this paper, we give a survey of a geometrical theory of Jacobi forms of higher degree. And we present some geometric results and discuss some geometric problems to be investigated in the future.

We consider linear ill-conditioned operator equations in a Hilbert space setting. Motivated by the aggregation method, we consider approximate solutions constructed from linear combinations of Tikhonov regularization, which amounts to…

A new geometric framework is developed to describe non-conservative classical field theories, which is based on multisymplectic and contact geometries. Assuming certain additional conditions and using the forms that define this multicontact…

In this paper, we present a geometric description of foams, which are prevalent in topological quantum field theories (TQFTs) based on quantum algebra, and reciprocally explore the geometry of Rozansky-Witten (RW) theory from an algebraic…

We examine closed geodesics in the quotient of hyperbolic three space by the discrete group of isometries SL(2,Z[i]). There is a correspondence between closed geodesics in the manifold, the complex continued fractions originally studied by…

We define an almost--cosymplectic--contact structure which generalizes cosymplectic and contact structures of an odd dimensional manifold. Analogously, we define an almost--coPoisson--Jacobi structure which generalizes a Jacobi structure.…

A theory of graded manifolds can be viewed as a generalization of differential geometry of smooth manifolds. It allows one to work with functions which locally depend not only on ordinary real variables, but also on $\mathbb{Z}$-graded…

We discuss three mathematical structures which arise in topologically massive abelian gauge theory. First, the euclidean topologically massive abelian gauge theory defines a contact structure on a manifold. We briefly discuss three…
