This paper is devoted to a systematic study and classification of invariant affine or metric connections on certain classes of naturally reductive spaces. For any non-symmetric, effective, strongly isotropy irreducible homogeneous…
In this work, we focus on describing the space of bi-invariant metrics in a Lie group up to isometry. I.e, that is, metrics invariant under both left and right translations. We show that $\mathfrak{BI}$, the moduli space of bi-invariant…
We introduce an invariant for trivalent fatgraph spines of a once bordered surface, which takes values in the first homology of the surface. This invariant is the secondary object coming from two 1-cocycles on the dual fatgraph complex, one…
We define an invariant of graphs embedded in a three-manifold and a partition function for 2-complexes embedded in a triangulated four-manifold by specifying the values of variables in the Turaev-Viro and Crane-Yetter state sum models. In…
In this series of papers, we propose a theory of enumerative invariants counting self-dual objects in self-dual categories. Ordinary enumerative invariants in abelian categories can be seen as invariants for the structure group $\mathrm{GL}…
This paper surveys results found by the authors in the previous papers (see for example, A. Duyunova, V. Lychagin, S. Tychkov, Differential invariants for spherical layer flows of a viscid fluid, Journal of Geometry and Physics, 130,…
At any point of a surface in the four-dimensional Euclidean space we consider the geometric configuration consisting of two figures: the tangent indicatrix, which is a conic in the tangent plane, and the normal curvature ellipse. We show…
The multiple images of lensed quasars provide evidence on the mass distribution of the lensing galaxy. The lensing invariants are constructed from the positions of the images, their parities and their fluxes. They depend only on the…
Multiple image gravitational lens systems, and especially quads are invaluable in determining the amount and distribution of mass in galaxies. This is usually done by mass modeling using parametric or free-form methods. An alternative way…
The Linearization Theorem for proper Lie groupoids organizes and generalizes several results for classic geometries. Despite the various approaches and recent works on the subject, the problem of understanding invariant linearization…
An invariant of orientable 3-manifolds is defined by taking the minimum $n$ such that a given 3-manifold embeds in the connected sum of $n$ copies of $S^2 \times S^2$, and we call this $n$ the embedding number of the 3-manifold. We give…
Functional bases of second-order differential invariants of the Euclid, Poincar\'e, Galilei, conformal, and projective algebras are constructed. The results obtained allow us to describe new classes of nonlinear many-dimensional invariant…
Topologically non trivial effects appearing in the discussion of duality transformations in higher genus manifolds are discussed in a simple example, and their relation with the properties of Topological Field Theories is established.
We investigate functionals defined on manifolds through parameterizations. If they are to be meaningful, from a geometrical viewpoint, they ought to be invariant under reparameterizations. Standard, local, integral functionals with this…
We employ an isometry group invariants approach to study Killing tensors of valence three defined in the Euclidean plane. The corresponding invariants are found to be homogeneous polynomials of the parameters of the vector space of the…
We consider a geometrically finite discrete group of conformal transformations of the sphere. Further we consider distributions which are supported on the limit set and are invariant with conformal weight. We estimate their regularity in…
J.H.C. Whitehead introduced the concept of crossed modules in the early 20th century. These crossed modules are crucial for algebraic models of 2-type homotopy, which involve connected spaces with no higher than second-degree homotopy…
Introducing a quaternionic structure on Euclidean space, the fundaments for quaternionic and symplectic Clifford analysis are studied in detail from the viewpoint of invariance for the symplectic group action.
We define invariants of braids rather than invariants of conjugacy classes of braids. For any pure three-braid we give effective upper and lower bounds for these invariants. This is done in terms of a natural syllable decomposition of the…
Bidirectional transformation, also called lens, has played important roles in maintaining consistency in many fields of applications. A lens is specified by a pair of forward and backward functions which relate to each other in a consistent…
