48 results for diffeological differential forms

This paper aims to describe the behavior of diffeological differential forms under the operation of gluing of diffeological spaces along a smooth map. In the diffeological context, two ways of looking at diffeological forms are available, that of the vector space of all diffeological forms on a given space, and that of…

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…

In this paper, we consider diffeological spaces as stacks over the site of smooth manifolds, as well as the "underlying" diffeological space of any stack. More precisely, we consider diffeological spaces as so-called concrete sheaves and show that the Grothendieck construction sending these sheaves to stacks has a left…

If a Lie group acts on a manifold freely and properly, pulling back by the quotient map gives an isomorphism between the differential forms on the quotient manifold and the basic differential forms upstairs. We show that this result remains true for actions that are not necessarily free nor proper, as long as the ident…

We consider the notion of the De Rham operator on finite-dimensional diffeological spaces such that the diffeological counterpart Λ^1(X) of the cotangent bundle, the so-called pseudo-bundle of values of differential 1-forms, has bounded dimension. The operator is defined as the composition of the Levi-Civita connection…

We consider one possible definition of a diffeological connection on a diffeological vector pseudo-bundle. It is different from the one proposed in [7] and is in fact simpler, since it is obtained by a straightforward adaption of the standard definition of a connection as an operator on the space of all smooth sections…

We consider orbifolds as diffeological spaces. This gives rise to a natural notion of differentiable maps between orbifolds, making them into a subcategory of diffeology. We prove that the diffeological approach to orbifolds is equivalent to Satake's notion of a V-manifold and to Haefliger's notion of an orbifold. This…

result Ordinary differential cohomology can be recovered in terms of the homotopy theory of skeletal diffeological spaces.

We consider certain groups of tree automorphisms as so-called diffeological groups. The notion of diffeology, due to Souriau, allows to endow non-manifold topological spaces, such as regular trees that we look at, with a kind of a differentiable structure that in many ways is close to that of a smooth manifold; a suita…

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…

Differential calculus on Euclidean spaces has many generalisations. In particular, on a set XX, a diffeological structure is given by maps from open subsets of Euclidean spaces to XX, a differential structure is given by maps from XX to R\mathbb{R}, and a Frölicher structure is given by maps from R\mathbb{R} to $X…

We consider the diffeological version of the Clifford algebra of a (diffeological) finite-dimensional vector space; we start by commenting on the notion of a diffeological algebra (which is the expected analogue of the usual one) and that of a diffeological module (also an expected counterpart of the usual notion). Aft…

Let (M,F)(M,\mathcal{F}) be a foliated manifold. We prove that there is a canonical isomorphism between the complex of base-like forms Ωb(M,F)Ω^*_b(M,\mathcal{F}) of the foliation and the "De Rham complex" of the space of leaves M/FM/\mathcal{F} when considered as a "diffeological" quotient. Consequently, the two corresponding …

We show that a diffeological bundle gives rise to an exact sequence of internal tangent spaces. We then introduce two new classes of diffeological spaces, which we call weakly filtered and filtered diffeological spaces, whose tangent spaces are easier to understand. These are the diffeological spaces whose categories o…
