New product structures encode superintegrable Hamiltonian systems in Euclidean spaces.

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for orbits of commutative Hermann actions and actions of the direct product of two symmetric subgroups on compact Lie groups to be biharmonic in terms of symmetric triad with multiplicities. By this criterion, we determine all the proper biharmonic submanifolds in irreducibl…

Study special affine connections on symmetric spaces and their products.

We study Lie algebras endowed with an abelian complex structure which admit a symplectic form compatible with the complex structure. We prove that each of those Lie algebras is completely determined by a pair (U,H) where U is a complex commutative associative algebra and H is a sesquilinear hermitian form on U which ve…

We formulate a quantization commutes with reduction principle in the setting where the Lie group $G$, the symplectic manifold it acts on, and the orbit space of the action may all be noncompact. It is assumed that the action is proper, and the zero set of a deformation vector field, associated to the momentum map and a…

The paper proves a conjecture about integrability of hydrodynamic systems.

Study mixed commutator lengths in wreath products and their relation to general ranks.

We show that stable commutator length is rational on free products of free Abelian groups amalgamated over $\mathbb{Z}^k$, a class of groups containing the fundamental groups of all torus knot complements. We consider a geometric model for these groups and parameterize all surfaces with specified boundary mapping to th…

Each element of the commutator subgroup of a group can be represented as a product of commutators. The minimal number of factors in such a product is called the commutator length of the element. The commutator length of a group is defined as the supremum of commutator lengths of elements of its commutator subgroup. We …

New method compares geometric and standard cup products.

We generalize basic results relating the associated graded Lie algebra and the holonomy Lie algebra from finitely presented, commutator-relators groups to arbitrary finitely presented groups. In the process, we give an explicit formula for the cup-product in the cohomology of a finite 2-complex, and an algorithm for co…

In this paper, we introduce a category of graded commutative rings with certain algebraic morphisms, to investigate the cobordism category of plumbed 3-manifolds. In particular, we define a non-associative distributive algebra that gives necessary conditions for an abstract morphism between the homologies of two plumbe…

We give an algorithm to compute stable commutator length in free products of cyclic groups which is polynomial time in the length of the input, the number of factors, and the orders of the finite factors. We also describe some experimental and theoretical applications of this algorithm.

We propose a new point of view on quantum cohomology, strongly motivated by the work of Givental and Dubrovin, but closer to differential geometry than the existing approaches. The central object is the D-module which "quantizes" a commutative algebra associated to the (uncompactified) space of rational curves. A stand…

Curvature interpretation for WDVV equation in Frobenius manifolds.

Isomorphism found between filtered calculus and crossed products.

Drinfeld associator is a key tool in computing the Kontsevich integral of knots. A Drinfeld associator is a series in two non-commuting variables, satisfying highly complicated algebraic equations - hexagon and pentagon. The logarithm of a Drinfeld associator lives in the Lie algbera L generated by the symbols a,b,c mo…

For the free group $F_r$ on $r>1$ generators (respectively, the free product $G_1 * G_2$ of two nontrivial finite groups $G_1$ and $G_2$), we obtain the asymptotic for the number of conjugacy classes of commutators in $F_r$ (respectively, $G_1 * G_2$) with a given word length in a fixed set of free generators (respecti…

Let $\{{\cdot},{\cdot}\}_{\boldsymbol{\mathcal{P}}}$ be a variational Poisson bracket in a field model on an affine bundle $π$ over an affine base manifold $M^m$. Denote by $\times$ the commutative associative multiplication in the Poisson algebra $\boldsymbol{\mathcal{A}}$ of local functionals $Γ(π)\to\Bbbk$ that take…

We show that solutions of Thurston equation on triangulated 3-manifolds in a commutative ring carry topological information. We also introduce a homogeneous Thurston equation and a commutative ring associated to triangulated 3-manifolds.

New projection operators for multipatch spaces with stable properties.

We show that the small quantum product of the generalized flag manifold $G/B$ is a product operation on $H^*(G/B)\otimes \bR[q_1,..., q_l]$ uniquely determined by the fact that it is a deformation of the cup product on $H^*(G/B)$, it is commutative, associative, graded with respect to $°(q_i)=4$, it satisfies a certain…

It is proved that the stable commutator length of a Dehn twist in the mapping class group is positive and the tenth power of a Dehn twist about a nonseparating simple closed curve is a product of two commutators. As an application a new proof of the fact that the growth rate of a Dehn twist is linear is given.

For dimensions n greater than or equal to 3, we show that the space of metrics of positive scalar curvature on the n-sphere is homotopy equivalent to a subspace which takes the form of a H-space with a homotopy commutative, homotopy associative product operation. This product operation is based on the connected sum con…

We propose an explicit construction of the deformation quantization of the general second-class constrained system, which is covariant with respect to local coordinates on the phase space. The approach is based on constructing the effective first-class constraint (gauge) system equivalent to the original second-class o…

The paper defines and studies the geometric mean for tensors and its associated Riemannian geometry.

We study decompositions of complex hyperbolic isometries as products of involutions. We show that PU(2,1) has involution length 4 and commutator length 1, and that for all $n \geqslant 3$ PU($n$,1) has involution length at most 8.

Let M be a closed Riemannian manifold. We extend the product of Goresky-Hingston, on the cohomology of the free loop space of M relative to the constant loops, to a nonrelative product. It is graded associative and commutative, and compatible with the length filtration on the loop space, like the original product. We p…

Homotopy commutativity in quasitoric manifolds depends on polytope structure and characteristic matrix type.

This paper constructs an algebra on a 3-torus with specific properties for fluid dynamics.

We study the structure of Lie groups admitting left invariant abelian complex structures in terms of commutative associative algebras. If, in addition, the Lie group is equipped with a left invariant Hermitian structure, it turns out that such a Hermitian structure is Kähler if and only if the Lie group is the direct p…

We study subgroups of ${\rm PU}(2,1)$ generated by two non-commuting unipotent maps $A$ and $B$ whose product $AB$ is also unipotent. We call $\mathcal{U}$ the set of conjugacy classes of such groups. We provide a set of coordinates on $\mathcal{U}$ that make it homeomorphic to $\mathbb{R}^2$ . By considering the actio…

Given a fiber bundle $Z \to M \to B$ and a flat vector bundle $E \to M$ with a compatible action of a discrete group $G$, and regarding $B / G$ as the non-commutative space corresponding to the crossed product algebra, we construct an analytic torsion form as a non-commutative deRham differential form. We show that our…

We outline the notions and concepts of the calculus of variational multivectors within the Poisson formalism over the spaces of infinite jets of mappings from commutative (non)graded smooth manifolds to the factors of noncommutative associative algebras over the equivalence under cyclic permutations of the letters in t…

In this paper, we prove a theorem that gives a simple criterion for generating commuting pairs of generalized almost complex structures on spaces that are the product of two generalized almost contact metric spaces. We examine the implications of this theorem with regard to the definition of generalized Sasakian and ge…

Every homeomorphism of Euclidean space is a commutator of two homeomorphisms.

This short note contains an explicit proof of the Jacobi identity for variational Schouten bracket in $Z_2$-graded commutative setup. For the reasoning to be rigorous, it refers to the product bundle geometry of iterated variations (see arXiv:1312.1262 [math-ph]); no ad hoc regularizations occur anywhere in this theory…
