We discuss the local differential geometry of convex affine spheres in $\re^3$ and of minimal Lagrangian surfaces in Hermitian symmetric spaces. In each case, there is a natural metric and cubic differential holomorphic with respect to the…
All known Moufang sets arise, in some way or another, from an algebraic structure which can be called `division' in some way. In this PhD dissertation, I made an attempt to develop a theory of local Moufang sets, which generalize Moufang…
We use methods from exterior differential systems (EDS) to develop a geometric theory of scalar, first-order Lagrangian functionals and their associated Euler-Lagrange PDEs, subject to contact transformations. The first chapter contains an…
Using the method of moving frames we analyze the algebra of differential invariants for surfaces in three-dimensional affine geometry. For elliptic, hyperbolic, and parabolic points, we show that if the algebra of differential invariants is…
Elie Cartan's general equivalence problem is recast in the language of Lie algebroids. The resulting formalism, being coordinate and model-free, allows for a full geometric interpretation of Cartan's method of equivalence via reduction and…
In these lectures, we discuss two approaches to studying orbit spaces of algebraic Lie groups. Due to algebraic approach orbit space, or quotient, is an algebraic manifold, while from the differential viewpoint a quotient is a differential…
Cartan's moving frames method is a standard tool in riemannian geometry. We set up the machinery for applying moving frames to cotangent bundles and its sub-bundles defined by non-holonomic constraints.
The article treats the geometrical theory of partial differential equations in the absolute sense, i.e., without any additional structures and especially without any preferred choice of independent and dependent variables. The equations are…
This paper explores the application of Newton-Cartan geometry to the kinetic theory of gases that includes non-relativistic gravitational effects and the principle of general covariance. Starting with an introduction to the basics of…
A generalization of the differential geometry of forms and vector fields to the case of quantum Lie algebras is given. In an abstract formulation that incorporates many existing examples of differential geometry on quantum spaces we combine…
It is known that some equations of differential geometry are derived from variational principle in form of Euler-Lagrange equations. The equations of geodesic flow in Riemannian geometry is an example. Conversely, having Lagrangian…
The purpose of this paper is to announce some new results on the structure of the higher order Euler-Lagrange mapping of the multiple-integral variational calculus on fibered manifolds,namely a description of its kernel and its image,and an…
Motivated by research on contraction analysis and incremental stability/stabilizability the study of 'differential properties' has attracted increasing attention lately. Previously lifts of functions and vector fields to the tangent bundle…
For smooth manifolds equipped with various geometric structures, we construct complexes that replace the de Rham complex in providing an alternative fine resolution of the sheaf of locally constant functions. In case that the geometric…
This note provides a detailed algorithm to the application of local (perturbation) analysis of differential equations which is normally taught at graduate math courses. Exercise books often present more abstract and simplified versions of…
In this article we study the local structure of the Fibonacci Partition Function by relating it to a cocycle over an irrational rotation.
A method to construct Hamiltonian theories for systems of both ordinary and partial differential equations is presented. The knowledge of a Lagrangian is not at all necessary to achieve the result. The only ingredients required for the…
This paper develops an analytical approach to the study of the geometry of projective maps using the theory of elliptic differential operators. We construct two elliptic operators of second and fourth order, whose kernels characterize…
We introduce linear Dirac and generalized complex structures on Cartan geometries and give criteria for Dirac subalgebras of $\frkg\ltimes\frkg^*$ representing Dirac structures on a Cartan geometry. We prove that there is a bijection…
Inspired by the works of \cite{baz2} and \cite{kian}, this study develops an abstract framework for analyzing differential equations with space-dependent fractional time derivatives and bounded operators. Within this framework, we establish…
