We associate curves of isotropic, Lagrangian and coisotropic subspaces to higher order, one parameter variational problems. Minimality and conjugacy properties of extremals are described in terms of these curves.

A relative Picard theory in the context of graded manifolds is introduced. A Berezinian calculus and a theory of connections over SUSY-curves are systematically developed, and used to prove a Gauss-Bonnet theorem for line bundles in that…

We find three-dimensional subspaces of four-dimensional connected Lie algebras, generating these algebras, and abnormal extremals on connected Lie groups with these Lie algebras and with left-invariant sub-Finsler quasimetrics defined by…

Semi-Riemannian manifolds that satisfy (homogeneous) linear differential conditions of arbitrary order on the curvature are analyzed. They include, in particular, the spaces with (higher-order) recurrent curvature, (higher-order) symmetric…

We introduce a new notion of a curvature of a superconnection, different from the one obtained by a purely algebraic analogy with the curvature of a linear connection. The naturalness of this new notion of a curvature of a superconnection…

Let M be a simply connected Riemannian symmetric space, with at most one flat direction. We show that every Riemannian (or unitary) vector bundle with parallel curvature over M is an associated vector bundle of a canonical principal bundle,…

The solution of an extended Riemann problem is used to provide the internal boundary conditions at a junction when simulating one-dimensional flow through an open channel network. The proposed approach, compared to classic junction models,…

Despite remarkable success in describing supergravity reductions and backgrounds, generalized geometry and the closely related exceptional field theory are still lacking a fundamental object of differential geometry, the Riemann tensor. We…

The Jacobi curve of an extremal of optimal control problem is a curve in a Lagrangian Grassmannian defined up to a symplectic transformation and containing all information about the solutions of the Jacobi equations along this extremal. In…

The current paper is devoted to the study of integral curves of constant type in parabolic homogeneous spaces. We construct a canonical moving frame bundle for such curves and give the criterium when it turns out to be a Cartan connection.…

We prove several finiteness theorems for the normal bundles to souls in nonnegatively curved manifolds. More generally, we obtain finiteness results for open Riemannian manifolds whose topology is concentrated on compact domains of…

Frames normal for linear connections in vector bundles are defined and studied. In particular, such frames exist at every fixed point and/or along injective path. Inertial frames for gauge fields are introduced and on this ground the…

Several representations of geometric shapes involve quotients of mapping spaces. The projection onto the quotient space defines two sub-bundles of the tangent bundle, called the horizontal and vertical bundle. We investigate in these notes…

The general purpose bitensorially gauge-covariant differentiation procedure set up in the preceding article is specialised to the particular case of bundles with nonlinear fibres that are endowed with a torsion free Riemannian or…

We discover a fundamental exterior differential system of Riemannian geometry; indeed, an intrinsic and invariant global system of differential forms of degree $n$ associated to any given oriented Riemannian manifold $M$ of dimension $n+1$.…

Abnormal extremals on four-dimensional connected Lie groups with left-invariant sub-Finsler quasimetric, defined by a seminorm on a two-dimensional subspace of the Lie algebra generating the algebra, are found. In terms of structure…

We prove that the classical algebraic varieties over algebraically closed fields can be defined over arbitrary fields $k.$ Then we prove that for associative algebras $A$, there exist local representing objects $A_M$ for simple modules $M.$…

The Riemann Theorem states, that for any nontrivial connected and simply connected domain on the Riemann sphere there exists some its conformal bijection to the exterior of the unit disk. In this paper we find an explicit form of this map…

We introduce orbifolds from the classical point of view, using charts, and present orbifold versions of elementary objects from Algebraic Topology, such as the fundamental group, coverings and Euler characteristic; Differential…

We develop a unifed theory to study geometry of manifolds with different holonomy groups. They are classified by (1) real, complex, quaternion or octonion number they are defined over and (2) being special or not. Specialty is an…
