Based on the concept of manifold valued generalized functions we initiate a study of nonlinear ordinary differential equations with singular (in particular: distributional) right hand sides in a global setting. After establishing several…
Classical vector analysis is the predominant formalism used by engineers of computational electromagnetism, despite the fact that manifold as a theoretical concept has existed for a century. This paper discusses the benefits of manifolds…
Polyhedral surfaces are fundamental objects in architectural geometry and industrial design. Whereas closeness of a given mesh to a smooth reference surface and its suitability for numerical simulations were already studied extensively, the…
This paper proposes a refinement of the usual concept of algebraic quantum field theories (AQFTs) to theories that are smooth in the sense that they assign to every smooth family of spacetimes a smooth family of observable algebras. Using…
The traditional study of plane and space algebraic curves by looking at their tangent vectors, curvatures and torsions provides geometric, but unfortunately not sufficient information about individual curves in order to be able to…
Let $X \subset \Bbb P^r$ be a smooth algebraic curve in projective space, over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. For each $m \in \Bbb N$, the $m$-flexes of $X$ are defined as the points where the osculating hypersurface…
Infinitesimal symmetries of $S^1$-bundle gerbes are modelled with multiplicative vector fields on Lie groupoids. It is shown that a connective structure on a bundle gerbe gives rise to a natural horizontal lift of multiplicative vector…
This note is intended to reformulate the Dixmier-Malliavin theorem about smooth group representations in the language of bornological vector spaces, instead of topological vector spaces. This language turns out to allow a more general…
This note provides a detailed proof of the fact that a linear vector field on a vector bundle has a flow by vector bundle isomorphisms. It implies then easily the existence of global solutions to linear non-autonomous ODE's, with a standard…
In this paper, we derive a new form of maximum principle for smooth functions on a complete noncompact Riemannian manifold $M$ for which there exists a bounded vector field $X$ such that $\langle\nabla f,X\rangle\geq 0$ on $M$ and…
Multimodal normal incestual systems are investigated in terms of multiple categories. The different sorted composition of operators are exhibited as 2-cells in multiple categories built up from 2-categories giving rise to different axioms.…
A linear F-manifold is an F-manifold (E, \circ , e) defined on the total space of a vector bundle \pi : E \rightarrow M for which the multiplication and unit field are linear tensor fields. We develop a systematic treatment of linear…
It is well known that smooth (or continuous) vector fields cannot be topologically transitive on the sphere $\S^2$. Piecewise-smooth vector fields, on the other hand, may present non-trivial recurrence even on $\S^2$. Accordingly, in this…
This is an expository article detailing results concerning large arcs in finite projective spaces, which attempts to cover the most relevant results on arcs, simplifying and unifying proofs of known old and more recent theorems. The article…
Differential calculus on discrete sets is developed in the spirit of noncommutative geometry. Any differential algebra on a discrete set can be regarded as a `reduction' of the `universal differential algebra' and this allows a systematic…
We prove that affine invariant manifolds in strata of flat surfaces are algebraic varieties. The result is deduced from a generalization of a theorem of M\"oller. Namely, we prove that the image of a certain twisted Abel-Jacobi map lands in…
We obtain a complete time expansion of the pull-back operator generated by a real analytic flow of real analytic automorphisms acting on analytic tensor sections of a manifold. Our expansion is given in terms of multiple Lie derivatives.…
Contact geometry has been applied to various mathematical sciences, and it has been proposed that a contact manifold and a strictly convex function induce a dually flat space that is used in information geometry. Here, such a dually flat…
In this paper we explore algebraic and geometric structures that arise on parallelizable manifolds. Given a parallelizable manifold $\mathbb{L}$, there exists a global trivialization of the tangent bundle, which defines a map…
Many extensions of General Relativity are based on considering metric and affine structures as independent properties of spacetime. This leads to the possibility of introducing torsion as an independent degree of freedom. In this article we…
