The paper extends Cartan development to infinite dimensional Lie groups.
Constructs stochastic processes on sub-Riemannian manifolds using Cartan connections.
Develops symmetric Cartan calculus linking to Patterson-Walker metric.
The extension functors between categories of Cartan geometries can be used to define different categories of Cartan geometries with additional morphisms. The Cartan geometries modeled on skeletons can be used for the description of such categories of Cartan geometries and therefore we develop the theory of Cartan geome…
Develops intrinsic curved cosets for Cartan geometries.
Develops infinite-dimensional Kempf-Ness theory for complexification-free groups.
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 prolongation. We show how to construct certain normal forms (Cartan algebroids) …
We develop and study quaternionic and octonionic analogies of Cartan angular and Toledo invariants that are well known in the complex hyperbolic space. Using such invariants we study quasifuchsian deformations (including bendings) of quaternionic and octonionic hyperbolic manifolds.
This paper studies lightlike Cartan geometries and their properties.
The Cartan-Kähler theorem is extended to Lie algebroids.
The study extends isoperimetric inequalities to non-positive curvature spaces.
We develop the concept of Cartan ribbons together with a rolling-based method to ribbonize and approximate any given surface in space by intrinsically flat ribbons. The rolling requires that the geodesic curvature along the contact curve on the surface agrees with the geodesic curvature of the corresponding Cartan deve…
Extends submanifold theorem to general spaces.
We develop a non-relativistic twistor theory, in which Newton--Cartan structures of Newtonian gravity correspond to complex three-manifolds with a four-parameter family of rational curves with normal bundle . We show that the Newton--Cartan space-times are unstable under the general K…
The paper develops a non-transitive Cartan connection for sub-Riemannian manifolds.
In the present paper we construct differential invariants for generic rank 2 vector distributions on n-dimensional manifold. In the case n=5 (the first case containing functional parameters) E. Cartan found in 1910 the covariant fourth-order tensor invariant for such distributions, using his "reduction-prolongation" pr…
We give a survey on the development of the study of the asymptotic Dirichlet problem for the minimal surface equation on Cartan-Hadamard manifolds. Part of this survey is based on the introductory part of the doctoral dissertation of the author. The paper is organised as follows. First we introduce Cartan-Hadamard mani…
This research reinterprets Lie and Cartan's work on geometric structures using Lie groupoids.
The chains studied in this paper generalize Chern-Moser chains for CR structures. They form a distinguished family of one dimensional submanifolds in manifolds endowed with a parabolic contact structure. Both the parabolic contact structure and the system of chains can be equivalently encoded as Cartan geometries (of d…
We discuss in this paper the conformal geometry of bi-invariant metrics on compact semisimple Lie groups. For this purpose we develop a conformal Cartan calculus adapted to this problem. In particular, we derive an explicit formula for the holonomy algebra of the normal conformal Cartan connection of a bi-invariant met…
Using the theory of extensors developed in a previous paper we present a theory of the parallelism structure on arbitrary smooth manifold. Two kinds of Cartan connection operators are introduced and both appear in intrinsic versions (i.e., frame independent) of the first and second Cartan structure equations. Also, the…
We further develop the asymptotic analytic approach to the study of scattering diagrams. We do so by analyzing the asymptotic behavior of Maurer-Cartan elements of a differential graded Lie algebra constructed from a (not-necessarily tropical) monoid-graded Lie algebra. In this framework, we give alternative differenti…
In the first part of this series of papers we developed the invariant differentiation with respect to a Cartan connection, we described this procedure in the terms of the underlying principal connections, and we discussed applications of this theory to the construction of natural operators. In this part we will extend …
We give an explicit description, in terms of bracket, anchor, and pairing, of the standard cochain complex associated to a Courant algebroid. In this formulation, the differential satisfies a formula that is formally identical to the Cartan formula for the de Rham differential. This perspective allows us to develop the…
This paper extends Jacobi field theory to Jacobi curves and their curvatures.
We extend the classical characterization of a finite-dimensional Lie algebra g in terms of its Maurer-Cartan algebra-the familiar differential graded algebra of alternating forms on g with values in the ground field, endowed with the standard Lie algebra cohomology operator-to sh Lie-Rinehart algebras. To this end, we …
In this paper, we first provide an updated survey of the geometry of complex Cartan spaces. New characterizations for some particular classes of complex Cartan spaces are pointed out, e.g. Landsberg-Cartan, strongly Berwald-Cartan and others. We introduce the Cartan-Randers spaces which offer examples of Berwald-Cartan…
Study shows nonexistence of certain geometric structures in complex geometries.
We develop a holonomy reduction procedure for general Cartan geometries. We show that, given a reduction of holonomy, the underlying manifold naturally decomposes into a disjoint union of initial submanifolds. Each such submanifold corresponds to an orbit of the holonomy group on the modelling homogeneous space and car…
An affine Cartan calculus is developed. The concepts of special affine bundles and special affine duality are introduced. The canonical isomorphisms, fundamental for Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulations of the dynamics in the affine setting are proved.
We develope in great computational details the classical Cartan equivalence problem for Levi-nondegenerate C^6-smooth real hypersurfaces M^3 in C^2, performing all calculations effectively in terms of a (local) graphing function \varphi. In particular, we present explicitly the unique (complex) essential invariant J of…
New framework tackles geometric structure existence and classification.
We obtain an explicit formula for comparing total curvature of level sets of functions on Riemannian manifolds, and develop some applications of this result to the isoperimetric problem in spaces of nonpositive curvature.
We define what we call morphisms of Cartan connections. We generalize the main theorems on Cartan connections to theorems on morphisms. Many of the known constructions involving Cartan connections turn out to be examples of morphisms. We prove some basic results concerning completeness of Cartan connections. We provide…

Explains Cartan geometries for graduate students.
We prove that any compact Kähler manifold bearing a holomorphic Cartan geometry contains a rational curve just when the Cartan geometry is inherited from a holomorphic Cartan geometry on a lower dimensional compact Kähler manifold.
We pursue the study of holomorphic Cartan geometry with singularities. We introduce the notion of logarithmic Cartan geometry on a complex manifold, with polar part supported on a normal crossing divisor. In particular, we show that the push-forward of a Cartan geometry constructed using a finite Galois ramified coveri…
Let \gh = \gh_{-k}\oplus \cdots \oplus \gh_{l} (k >0, l \geq 0) be a finite dimensional real graded Lie algebra, with a Euclidian metric \langle \cdot , \cdot \rangle adapted to the gradation. The metric \langle\cdot , \cdot \rangle is called admissible if the codifferentials \partial^{*} : C^{k+1}(\gh_{-}, \gh ) \ra C…
New Sliced-Wasserstein distances for non-Euclidean data.
Geometric theory of integration developed in SDG.
The norm of Cartan torsion plays an important role for studying of immersion theory in Finsler geometry. Indeed, Finsler manifold with unbounded Cartan torsion can not be isometrically imbedded into any Minkowski space. In this paper, we find two subclasses of (?, ?)-metrics which have bounded Cartan torsion. Then, we …
