The central object of synthetic differential geometry is microlinear spaces. In our previous paper [Microlinearity in Frolicher spaces -beyond the regnant philosophy of manifolds-, International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics, 60 (2010), 15-24] we have emancipated microlinearity from within well-adapted models…

Frolicher spaces and smooth mappings form a cartesian closed category. It was shown in our previous paper [Far East Journal of Mathematical Sciences, 35 (2009), 211-233] that its full subcategory of Weil exponentiable Frolicher spaces is cartesian closed. By emancipating microlinearity from within a well-adapted model …

The fourth paper of our series of papers entitled "Differential Geometry of Microlinear Frolicher Spaces is concerned with jet bundles. We present three distinct approaches together with transmogrifications of the first into the second and of the second to the third. The affine bundle theorem and the equivalence of the…

In this paper, as the second in our series of papers on differential geometry of microlinear Frolicher spaces, we study differenital forms. The principal result is that the exterior differentiation is uniquely determined geometrically, just as grad (ient), div (ergence) and rot (ation) are uniquely determined geometric…

As the third of our series of papers on differential geometry of microlinear Frolicher spaces, this paper is devoted to the Frolicher-Nijenhuis calculus of their named bracket. The main result is that the Frolicher-Nijenhuis bracket satisfies the graded Jacobi identity. It is also shown that the Lie derivation preserve…

This paper is the sequel to our previous paper (Differetial Geometry of Microlinear Frolicher spaces IV-1), where three approaches to jet bundles are presented and compared. The first objective in this paper is to give the affine bundle theorem for the second and third approaches to jet bundles. The second objective is…

Synthetic theory defines orbifolds as microlinear types with finite identifications.

In our previous papers [Far East Journal of Mathematical Sciences, 35 (2009), 211-223] and [International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics, 60 (2010), 15-24] we have developed the theory of Weil prolongation, Weil exponentiability and microlinearity for Frolicher spaces. In this paper we will relativize it so as…

Kock [Bull. Austral. Math. Soc., 25 (1982), 357-386] has considered differential forms with values in a group in a context where neighborhood relations are available. By doing so, he has made it clear where the so-called Maurer-Cartan formula should come from. In this paper, while we retain the classical definition of …

In our previous paper entitled "Axiomatic differential geometry -towards model categories of differential geometry-, we have given a category-theoretic framework of differential geometry. As the first part of our series of papers concerned with differential-geometric developments within the above axiomatic scheme, this…

Groupoids provide a more appropriate framework for differential geometry than principal bundles. Synthetic differential geometry is the avant-garde branch of differential geometry, in which nilpotent infinitesimals are available in abundance. The principal objective in this paper is to show within our favorite framewor…

In our [Higher-order preconnections in synthetic differential geometry of jet bundles, Beiträge zur Algebra und Geometrie, 45 (2004), 677-696] we have established the affine bundle theorem in the synthetic approach to jet bundles in terms of infinitesimal spaces Dⁿ's. In our succeeding [Synthetic differential geo…
