Let $G$ be a semisimple Lie group with finite center, $K\subset G$ a maximal compact subgroup, and $P\subset G$ a parabolic subgroup. Following ideas of P.Y.\ Gaillard, one may use $G$-invariant differential forms on $G/K\times G/P$ to construct $G$-equivariant Poisson transforms mapping differential forms on $G/P$ to …

We use the Grauert--Grothendieck complex on differentiable spaces to study basic relative forms on the inertia space of a compact Lie group action on a manifold. We prove that the sheaf complex of basic relative forms on the inertia space is a fine resolution of Bryliski's sheaf of functions on the inertia space.

On conformal manifolds of even dimension $n\geq 4$ we construct a family of new conformally invariant differential complexes. Each bundle in each of these complexes appears either in the de Rham complex or in its dual. Each of the new complexes is elliptic if the signature is Riemannian. We also construct gauge compani…

Diffeological and differential spaces are generalisations of smooth structures on manifolds. We show that the "intersection" of these two categories is isomorphic to Frölicher spaces, another generalisation of smooth structures. We then give examples of such spaces, as well as examples of diffeological and differential…

On a symplectic manifold, there is a natural elliptic complex replacing the de Rham complex. It can be coupled to a vector bundle with connection and, when the curvature of this connection is constrained to be a multiple of the symplectic form, we find a new complex. In particular, on complex projective space with its …

We construct a versal family of deformations of CR structures in five dimensions, using a differential complex closely related to the differential form complex introduced by Rumin for contact manifolds.

A new cohomology, induced by a vector field, is defined on pairs of differential forms ($1$--differentiable forms) in a manifold. It is proved a link with the classical de Rham cohomology and an $1$-differentable cohomology of Lichnerowicz type associated to an one form. Also, the case when the manifold is complex and …

We introduce multiplicative differential forms on Lie groupoids with values in VB-groupoids. Our main result gives a complete description of these objects in terms of infinitesimal data. By considering split VB-groupoids, we are able to present a Lie theory for differential forms on Lie groupoids with values in 2-term …

As is well-known, the Witten deformation of the De Rham complex computes the De Rham cohomology. In this paper we study the Witten deformation on a noncompact manifold and restrict it to differential forms which behave polynomially near infinity. Such polynomial differential forms naturally appear on manifolds with a c…

The main results of our paper deal with the lifting problem for multilinear differential operators between complexes of horizontal de Rham forms on the infinite jet bundle. We answer the question when does an n-multilinear differential operator from the space of (N,0)-forms (where N is the dimension of the base) to the…

A classical result in differential geometry states that for a free and proper Lie group action, the quotient map to the orbit space induces an isomorphism between the de Rham complex of differential forms on the orbit space and the basic differential forms on the original manifold. In this paper, this result is general…

In this paper, we introduce a new concept so called harmonic complex structure by using harmonic theory for vector bundle-valued differential forms.

It has long been known that differential forms on complex manifolds can be decomposed under the action of the complex structure to give the Dolbeault complex. This paper presents an analogous double complex for quaternionic manifolds using the fact that the cotangent space is isomorphic to a quaternionic vector space. …

This paper studies covariant derivatives for Lie groupoids with representation-valued forms.

The L 1-Sobolev inequality states that the L n/(n--1)-norm of a compactly supported function on Euclidean n-space is controlled by the L 1-norm of its gradient. The generalization to differential forms (due to Lanzani & Stein and Bourgain & Brezis) is recent, and states that a the L n/(n--1)-norm of a compactly support…

We define analytic torsion for the twisted de Rham complex, consisting of the spaces of differential forms on a compact oriented Riemannian manifold X valued in a flat vector bundle E, with a differential given by a flat connection on E plus an odd-degree closed differential form H on X. The difficulty lies in the fact…

We consider several differential operators on compact almost-complex, almost-Hermitian and almost-Kähler manifolds.
