We propose a definition of a "higher" version of the omni-Lie algebroid and study its isotropic and involutive subbundles. Our higher omni-Lie algebroid is to (multi)contact and related geometries what the higher generalized tangent bundle…
We extend topological T-duality to the case of general circle bundles. In this setting we prove existence and uniqueness of T-duals. We then show that T-dual spaces have isomorphic twisted cohomology, twisted $K$-theory and Courant…
We give a review of truncated L$_\infty$ algebras, as used in the study of higher gauge theory. These structures are believed to hold the correct properties to adequately describe gauge theory of extended objects. We discuss how to…
Hypercomplex structures on Courant algebroids unify holomorphic symplectic structures and usual hypercomplex structures. In this note, we prove the equivalence of two characterizations of hypercomplex structures on Courant algebroids, one…
The category of generalized Lie algebroids is presented. We obtain an exterior differential calculus for generalized Lie algebroids. In particular, we obtain similar results with the classical and modern results for Lie algebroids. So, a…
In this work we study some symplectic submanifolds in the cotangent bundle of a factorizable Lie group defined by second class constraints. By applying the Dirac method, we study many issues of these spaces as fundamental Dirac brackets,…
We extend the notion of T-duality to manifolds endowed with non-principal torus actions. The singularities of the torus action are controlled by a certain Lie algebroid, called the elliptic tangent bundle. Using this Lie algebroid, we…
In this work we extend the Lu-Weinstein construction of double symplectic groupoids to any Lie bialgebroid such that its associated Courant algebroid is transitive and its Atiyah algebroid integrable. We illustrate this result by showing…
This paper provides an alternative, much simpler, definition for Li-Bland's LA-Courant algebroids, or Poisson Lie 2-algebroids, in terms of split Lie 2-algebroids and self-dual 2-representations. This definition generalises in a precise…
We introduce Courant 1-derivations, which describe a compatibility between Courant algebroids and linear (1,1)-tensor fields and lead to the notion of Courant-Nijenhuis algebroids. We provide examples of Courant 1-derivations on exact…
We introduce Hopf algebroid covariance on Woronowicz's differential calculus. Using it, we develop quite a general framework of noncommutative complex geometry that subsumes the one in [2]. We present transverse complex and K\"ahler…
The geometry of the Lie algebroid generalized tangent bundle of a generalized Lie algebroid is developed. Formulas of Ricci type and identities of Cartan and Bianchi type are presented. Introducing the notion of geodesic of a mechanical…
In this paper we study the foundations of the algebraic treatment of classical and quantum field theories for Dirac fermions under external backgrounds following the initial contributions made by several collegues. The treatment is…
The recent articles of Waldspurger and Meinrenken contained the results of tilings formed by the sets of type $(1-w)C^\circ$, $w\in W$, where $W$ is a linear or affine Weyl group, and $C^\circ$ is an open kernel of a fundamental chamber $C$…
We formulate a refined theory of linear systems, using the methods of a previous paper, "A Theory of Branches for Algebraic Curves", and use it to give a geometric interpretation of the genus of an algebraic curve. Using principles of…
Generalised almost complex structures $\mathcal J$ on transitive Courant algebroids $E$ are studied in terms of their components with respect to a splitting $E\cong TM \oplus T^*M \oplus \mathcal G$, where $M$ denotes the base of $E$ and…
The aim of this work is to lay the foundations of differential geometry and Lie theory over the general class of topological base fields and -rings for which a differential calculus has been developed in recent work (collaboration with H.…
In this paper we describe all invariant complex Dirac structures with constant real index on a maximal flag manifold in terms of the roots of the Lie algebra which defines the flag manifold. We also completely classify these structures…
Odd exact Courant algebroids constitute a simple class of transitive Courant algebroids. Their underlying vector bundle is of odd rank and differs from a generalized tangent bundle by the addition of a line bundle. In this article we study…
