We consider the problem of graph-matching on a network of 3D shapes with uncertainty quantification. We assume that the pairwise shape correspondences are efficiently represented as \emph{functional maps}, that match real-valued functions…
This report attempts a clean presentation of the theory of harmonic maps from complex and K\"ahler manifolds to Riemannian manifolds. After reviewing the theory of harmonic maps between Riemannian manifolds initiated by Eells--Sampson and…
The orthosymplectic supergroup OSp(m|2n) is introduced as the supergroup of isometries of flat Riemannian superspace R^{m|2n} which stabilize the origin. It also corresponds to the supergroup of isometries of the supersphere S^{m-1|2n}. The…
In this paper we construct examples of spherically symmetric Dirac-Yang-Mills pairs on Riemannian 3-manifolds with the structure group SU(2). This approach yields coupled solutions (i.e. the connection is not a Yang-Mills connection) and…
We show that for a Lie group $G=\R^{n}\ltimes_{\phi} \R^{m}$ with a semisimple action $\phi$ which has a cocompact discrete subgroup $\Gamma$, the solvmanifold $G/\Gamma$ admits a canonical invariant formal (i.e. all products of harmonic…
This survey paper is devoted to Riemannian manifolds with special holonomy. To any Riemannian manifold of dimension n is associated a closed subgroup of SO(n), the holonomy group; this is one of the most basic invariants of the metric. A…
In this work, we are interested in a non symmetric homogeneous space, namely $SO(2m)/Sp(m)$. We show that this space admits a structure of $Z_2^2$-symmetric space. We describe all the non degenerated metrics and classify the Riemannian and…
We study left-invariant foliations ${\mathcal F}$ on semi-Riemannian Lie groups $G$ generated by a subgroup $K$. We are interested in such foliations which are conformal and with minimal leaves of codimension two. We classify such…
Recently Jarvis has proved a correspondence between SU(N) monopoles and rational maps of the Riemann sphere into flag manifolds. Furthermore, he has outlined a construction to obtain the monopole fields from the rational map. In this paper…
Length spectra for Riemannian metrics are well studied, while sub-Riemannian length spectra have been largely unexplored. Here we give the length spectrum for a canonical sub-Riemannian structure attached to any compact Lie group by…
We study locally harmonic maps between a Riemann surface or Lorentz surface $M$ and a Riemann surface or Lorentz surface $N$. {All four cases are studied in a unified way}. All four cases are written using a unified formalism. Therefore…
In this paper, we study the existence of various harmonic maps from Hermitian manifolds to Kaehler, Hermitian and Riemannian manifolds respectively. By using refined Bochner formulas on Hermitian (possibly non-Kaehler) manifolds, we derive…
A new procedure for the construction of higher-dimensional Lie-Hamilton systems is proposed. This method is based on techniques belonging to the representation theory of Lie algebras and their realization by vector fields. The notion of…
Let $G$ be a Lie group equipped with a left-invariant Riemannian metric. Let $K$ be a semisimple and normal subgroup of $G$ generating a left-invariant conformal foliation $\F$ of on $G$. We then show that the foliation $\F$ is Riemannian…
This is a collection of notes on the properties of left-invariant metrics on the eight-dimensional compact Lie group SU(3). Among other topics we investigate the existence of invariant pseudo-Riemannian Einstein metrics on this manifold. We…
Manifold-valued measurements exist in numerous applications within computer vision and machine learning. Recent studies have extended Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) to manifolds, and concomitantly, normalization techniques have also been…
The notion of Poisson manifold with compatible pseudo-metric was introduced by the author in [1]. In this paper, we introduce a new class of Lie algebras which we call a pseudo-Rieamannian Lie algebras. The two notions are strongly related:…
We construct explicit complex-valued $p$-harmonic functions and harmonic morphisms on the classical compact symmetric complex and quaternionic Grassmannians. The ingredients for our construction method are joint eigenfunctions of the…
This paper extends the nonabelian Hodge correspondence for Kaehler manifolds to a larger class of hermitian metrics on complex manifolds called balanced of Hodge-Riemann type. Essentially, it grows out of a few key observations so that the…
Let $M$ be an analytic complete finite volume pseudo-Riemannian manifold and $\widetilde{Sp}(n,\mathbb{R})\times\widetilde{Sp}(1,\mathbb{R})$ a connected semisimple Lie group such that its Lie algebra is…
