problem Analyzing harmonic symmetric bilinear forms on Riemannian manifolds.
method Developed the theory of harmonic symmetric bilinear forms and proved properties of the Bourguignon Laplacian.
result The kernel of the Bourguignon Laplacian is a finite-dimensional vector space of harmonic symmetric bilinear forms on a compact Riemannian manifold.
We use the Jones-Wenzl idempotents to construct a basis of Temperley-Lieb algebra TL_n. This allows a short calculation for a Gram determinant of Lickorish's bilinear form on the Temperley-Lieb algebra.
We provide a diagrammatic computation for the bilinear form, which is defined as the pairing between the (relative) cup products with every local coefficients and every integral homology 2-class of every links in the 3-sphere. As a corollary, we construct bilinear forms on the twisted Alexander modules of links.
In this paper, we extend Su-Zhang's Cheeger-Mueller type theorem for symmetric bilinear torsions to manifolds with boundary in the case that the Riemannian metric and the non-degenerate symmetric bilinear form are of product structure near the boundary. Our result also extends Bruening-Ma's Cheeger-Mueller type theorem…
We present structural properties of Lie algebras admitting symmetric, invariant and nondegenerate bilinear forms. We show that these properties are not satisfied by nilradicals of parabolic subalgebras of real split forms of complex simple Lie algebras, neither by 2-step nilpotent Lie algebras associated with graphs, w…
Consider a smooth manifold with a smooth metric which changes bilinear type from Riemann to Lorentz on a hypersurface Σ with radical tangent to Σ. Two natural bilinear symmetric forms appear there, and we use it to analyze the geometry of Σ. We show the way in which these forms control the smooth extensibility ov…
We introduce invariants of Hurwitz equivalence classes with respect to arbitrary group G. The invariants are constructed from any right G-modules M and any G-invariant bilinear function on M, and are of bilinear forms. For instance, when G is the mapping class group of the closed surface, Mg, w…
Let V be a finite dimensional vector space over a field F of characteristic different from 2, and let Q be a nondegenerate, symmetric, bilinear form on V. Let Cℓ(V,Q) be the Clifford algebra determined by V and Q. The bilinear form Q extends in a natural way to a nondegenerate, symmetric, bilinear fo…
New mathematical proposal for TQFTs using TMF-modules.
problem Constructing new types of TQFTs at the intersection of topology, algebra, physics, and homotopy theory.
method Defines TMF-modules associated with symmetric bilinear forms and assigns them to closed 3-manifolds and maps of TMF-modules to 4-dimensional cobordisms.
result Invariants of 4-manifolds arising from 6-dimensional superconformal field theories, conjecturally generalizing the theta function of a lattice.
In this note we prove the following three algebraic facts which have applications in the theory of holonomy groups and homogeneous spaces: Any irreducibly acting connected subgroup $G \subset Gl(n,\rr)$ is closed. Moreover, if G admits an invariant bilinear form of Lorentzian signature, G is maximal, i.e. it is con…
We generalize a theorem of Bismut-Zhang, which extends the Cheeger-Mueller theorem on Ray-Singer torsion and Reidemeister torsion, to the case where the flat vector bundle over a closed manifold carries a nondegenerate symmetric bilinear form. As a consequence, we prove the Burghelea-Haller conjecture which gives an an…
Bipartite Riemann-Finsler geometries with complementary Finsler structures are constructed. Calculable examples are presented based on a bilinear-form coefficient for explicit Lorentz violation.
Develops a bialgebra theory for post-Lie algebras using geometric interpretations and bilinear forms.
problem Characterizing and understanding post-Lie algebras and their associated structures.
method Utilizes Manin triples and generalized Hessian Lie groups to define and characterize post-Lie algebras with nondegenerate symmetric invariant bilinear forms.
result Establishes a bialgebra theory for post-Lie algebras via the Manin triple approach, including new algebraic structures like pp-post-Lie algebras.
We extend the complex-valued analytic torsion, introduced by Burghelea and Haller on closed manifolds, to compact Riemannian bordisms. We do so by considering a flat complex vector bundle over a compact Riemannian manifold, endowed with a fiberwise nondegenerate symmetric bilinear form. The Riemmanian metric and the bi…
We consider the equations, arising as the conformal invariance conditions of the perturbed curved beta-gamma system. These equations have the physical meaning of Einstein equations with a B-field and a dilaton on a hermitian manifold, where the B-field 2-form is imaginary and proportional to the canonical form associat…
We use computer algebra to demonstrate the existence of a multilinear polynomial identity of degree 8 satisfied by the bilinear operation in every Lie-Yamaguti algebra. This identity is a consequence of the defining identities for Lie-Yamaguti algebras, but is not a consequence of anticommutativity. We give an explicit…
Via a non degenerate symmetric bilinear form we identify the coadjoint representation with a new representation and so we induce on the orbits a simplectic form. By considering Hamiltonian systems on the orbits we study some features of them and finally find commuting functions under the corresponding Lie-Poisson brack…
The second fundamental form of Riemannian geometry is generalised to the case of a manifold with a linear connection and an integrable distribution. This bilinear form is generally not symmetric and its skew part is the torsion. The form itself is closely related to the shape map of the connection. The codimension one …
Given a closed, oriented surface M, the algebraic intersection of closed curves induces a symplectic form Int(.,.) on the first homology group of M. If M is equipped with a Riemannian metric g, the first homology group of M inherits a norm, called the stable norm. We study the norm of the bilinear form Int(.,.), with r…
