We consider smooth isotropic immersions from the 2-dimensional torus into R2nR^{2n}, for n2n \geq 2. When n=2n = 2 the image of such map is an immersed Lagrangian torus of R4R^4. We prove that such isotropic immersions can be approximated by arbitrarily C0C^0-close piecewise linear isotropic maps. If n3n \geq 3 the piece…

We define integrable, big-isotropic structures on a manifold MM as subbundles ETMTME\subseteq TM\oplus T^*M that are isotropic with respect to the natural, neutral metric (pairing) gg of TMTMTM\oplus T^*M and are closed by Courant brackets (this also implies that [E,Eg]Eg[E,E^{\perp_g}]\subseteq E^{\perp_g}). We give the interp…

We give a construction to obtain canonically an ``isotropic average'' of given C1C^1-close isotropic submanifolds of a symplectic manifold. To do so we use an improvement of Weinstein's submanifold averaging theorem (obtained in collaboration with H. Karcher) and apply ``Moser's trick''. We also present an application …

Given a Dirac subbundle and an isotropic subbundle of a Courant algebroid, we provide a canonical method to obtain a new Dirac subbundle. When the original Dirac subbundle is involutive (i.e., a Dirac structure) this construction has interesting applications, for instance to Dirac's theory of constraints and to the Mar…

We revisit the contact measures introduced by Firey, and further developed by Schneider and Teufel, from the perspective of the theory of valuations on manifolds. This reveals a link between the kinematic formulas for area measures studied by Wannerer and the integral geometry of curved isotropic spaces. As an applicat…

We propose a definition of a "higher" version of the omni-Lie algebroid and study its isotropic and involutive subbundles. Our higher omni-Lie algebroid is to (multi)contact and related geometries what the higher generalized tangent bundle of Zambon and Bi/Sheng is to (multi)symplectic and related geometries.

The flag curvature of a Finsler metric is called a Riemannian quantity because it is an extension of sectional curvature in Riemannian geometry. In Finsler geometry, there are several non-Riemannian quantities such as the (mean) Cartan torsion, the (mean) Landsberg curvature and the S-curvature, which all vanish for Ri…

We show that no exotic R4\mathbb{R}^4 admits a complete Riemannian metric with uniformly positive isotropic curvature and with bounded geometry. This is essentially a corollary of the main result in [Hu1], and was stated in [Hu2] without proof. In the process of the proof we also show that the diffeomorphism type of an…
