This is the first in a series of papers laying the foundations for a differential graded approach to derived differential geometry (and other geometries in characteristic zero). In this paper, we study theories of supercommutative algebras for which infinitely differentiable functions can be evaluated on elements. Such…
Let $\g\_2$ be the Hochschild complex of cochains on $C^\infty(\RM^n)$ and $\g\_1$ be the space of multivector fields on $\RM^n$. In this paper we prove that given any G_∞-structure ({\rm i.e.} Gerstenhaber algebra up to homotopy structure) on $\g\_2$, and any C_∞-morphism φ ({\rm i.e.} morphism of co…
∞-Harmonic maps are a generalization of ∞-harmonic functions. They can be viewed as the limiting cases of p-harmonic maps as p goes to infinity. In this paper, we give complete classifications of linear and quadratic ∞-harmonic maps from and into a sphere, quadratic ∞-harmonic maps between E…
Spherical representations and functions are the building blocks for harmonic analysis on riemannian symmetric spaces. In this paper we consider spherical functions and spherical representations related to certain infinite dimensional symmetric spaces G∞/K∞=limGn/Kn. We use the representation t…
If X is a manifold then the set C∞(X) of smooth functions f:X→R is a C∞-ring, a rich algebraic structure with many operations. C∞-schemes are schemes over C∞-rings, a way of using Algebro-Geometric techniques in Differential Geometry. They include smooth manifolds, but also…
Let S be a rank-one symmetric space of non-compact type and let X be a CAT(−1) space. A well-known result by Bourdon states that if a topological embedding φ:∂∞S→∂∞X respects cross ratios, that means $\text{cr}_S( ξ_0,η_0,ξ_1,η_1)=\text{cr}_X( \varphi(ξ_0),\…
It is proved that the isometry classes of pointed connected complete Riemannian n-manifolds form a Polish space, M∗∞(n), with the topology described by the C∞ convergence of manifolds. This space has a canonical partition into sets defined by varying the distinguished point into each manifo…
The main result of this paper shows that, if g(t) is a complete non-singular solution of the normalized Ricci flow on a noncompact 4-manifold M of finite volume, then the Euler characteristic number χ(M)≥0. Moreover, χ(M)=0, there exist a sequence times tk→∞, a double sequence of points $\{p_{k…
We construct what we call a Kirby category, a monoidal category whose morphisms are smooth 4-manifolds, projecting down to another monoidal category whose morphisms are orientable 3-manifolds, the projection being induced by the boundary map on manifolds. We construct a higher categorical generalization of such concept…

The family of translation surfaces (Xg,ωg) constructed by Arnoux and Yoccoz from self-similar interval exchange maps encompasses one example from each genus g greater than or equal to 3. We triangulate these surfaces and deduce general properties they share. The surfaces (Xg,ωg) converge to a surface $(X_\i…
We introduce a more restrictive version of the strict CD(K,∞) -condition, the so-called very strict CD(K,∞) -condition, and show the existence of optimal maps in very strict CD(K,∞) -spaces despite the possible lack of uniqueness of optimal plans.
If X is a smooth manifold then the R-algebra C∞(X) of smooth functions c:X→R is a C∞-ring. That is, for each smooth function f:Rn→R there is an n-fold operation Φf:C∞(X)n→C∞(X) acting by Φf:(c1,…,cn)↦f(c1,...,cn), a…
We consider maximum solution g(t), t∈[0,+∞), to the normalized Ricci flow. Among other things, we prove that, if (M,ω) is a smooth compact symplectic 4-manifold such that b2+(M)>1 and let g(t),t∈[0,∞), be a solution to (1.3) on M whose Ricci curvature satisfies that $|\text{Ric}(g(t))|\l…
We consider four notions of maps between smooth C^r orbifolds O, P with O compact (without boundary). We show that one of these notions is natural and necessary in order to uniquely define the notion of orbibundle pullback. For the notion of complete orbifold map, we show that the corresponding set of C^r maps between …
In this paper, we give complete classifications of linear ∞-harmonic maps between Euclidean and Heisenberg spaces, between Nil and Sol spaces. We also classify all ∞-harmonic linear endomorphisms of Sol space and show that there is a subgroup of ∞-harmonic linear automorphisms in the group of linea…
We study the deformation theory of pre-symplectic structures, i.e. closed two-forms of fixed rank. The main result is a parametrization of nearby deformations of a given pre-symplectic structure in terms of an L∞-algebra, which we call Koszul L∞-algebra. This L∞-algebra is a cousin of the Koszul…
In this short note we study nonexistence result of biharmonic maps from a complete Riemannian manifold into a Riemannian manifold with nonpositive sectional curvature. Assume that φ:(M,g)→(N,h) is a biharmonic map, where (M,g) is a complete Riemannian manifold and (N,h) a Riemannian manifold with nonpositive…
We say that a group has property R∞ if any group automorphism has an infinite number of twisted conjugacy classes. Fel'shtyn and Goncalves prove that the solvable Baumslag-Solitar groups BS(1,m) have property R∞. We define a solvable generalization Γ(S) of these groups which we show to have proper…
In this short note, we consider self-similar immersions F:Rn→Rn+k of the Graphic Mean Curvature Flow of higher co-dimension. We show that the following is true: Let F(x)=(x,f(x)),x∈Rn be a graph solution to the soliton equation Hˉ(x)+F⊥(x)=0. Assume…
Let X be any subanalytic compact pseudomanifold. We show a De Rham theorem for L∞ forms. We prove that the cohomology of L∞ forms is isomorphic to intersection cohomology in the maximal perversity.
