We introduce a category of rigid geometries on singular spaces which are leaf spaces of foliations and are considered as leaf manifolds. We single out a special category F0 of leaf manifolds containing the orbifold category as a full subcategory. Objects of F0 may have non-Hausdorff topology u…
Motivated by generalized geometry (à la Hitchin), we discuss the integrability conditions for four natural almost complex structures on the product bundle Z×Z→M, where Z is the twistor space of a Riemannian 4-manifold M endowed with a metric connection D with skew-symme…
We study the geometry of multidimensional scalar 2nd order PDEs (i.e. PDEs with n independent variables) with one unknown function, viewed as hypersurfaces E in the Lagrangian Grassmann bundle M(1) over a (2n+1)-dimensional contact manifold (M,C). We develop the theory of character…
We consider two Riemannian geometries for the manifold M(p,m×n) of all m×n matrices of rank p. The geometries are induced on M(p,m×n) by viewing it as the base manifold of the submersion π:(M,N)↦MNT, selecting an adequate Riemannian metric on the total space, and …
The present paper is a continuation of Le Anh Vu's ones [13], [14], [15]. Specifically, the paper is concerned with the subclass of connected and simply connected MD5-groups such that their MD5-algebras G have the derived ideal G1:=[G,G]≡R3. We sha…
We develop various properties of symmetric generalized complex structures (in connection with their holomorphic space and B-field transformations), which are analogous to the well-known results of Gualtieri on skew-symmetric generalized complex structures. Given a symmetric or skew-symmetric generalized complex structu…
The purpose of this paper is to study PR-semi-invariant warped product submanifolds of a paracosymplectic manifold M. We prove that the distributions associated with the definition of PR-semi-invariant warped product submanifold M are always integrable. A nece…
We analyze the asymptotic cones of Teichmüller space with the Teichmüller metric, (T(S),dT). We give a new proof of a theorem of Eskin-Masur-Rafi which bounds the dimension of quasiisometrically embedded flats in (T(S),dT). Our approach is an application of the ideas of Behrstock and Behrstock…
We propose that a simple, Lagrangian 2d N=(0,2) duality interface between the 3d N=2 XYZ model and 3d N=2 SQED can be associated to the simplest triangulated 4-manifold: the 4-simplex. We then begin to flesh out a dictionary between more general triangulated 4-manifolds with boundar…
Let T be a circle and LT be its loop group. Let M be an infinite dimensional manifold equipped with a nice LT-action. We construct an analytic LT-equivariant index for M, and justify it in terms of noncommutative geometry. More precisely, we construct a Hilbert space H consis…
Suppose (X,ω) is a compact Kähler manifold. We introduce and explore the metric geometry of the Lp,q-Calabi Finsler structure on the space of Kähler metrics H. After noticing that the Lp,q-Calabi and Lp′-Mabuchi path length topologies on H do not typically dominate each other, we …
We describe a bicategory (RedOrb) of reduced orbifolds in the framework of classical differential geometry (i.e. without any explicit reference to notions of Lie groupoids or differentiable stacks, but only using orbifold atlases, local lifts and changes of charts). In order to construct such a …
Let Mg denote the moduli space of compact Riemann surfaces of genus g and let Ag be the space of principally polarized abelian varieties of (complex) dimension g. Let J:Mg⟶Ag be the map which associates to a Riemann surface its Jacobian. The map J is in…
Let M=(M,OM) be a smooth supermanifold with connection ∇ and Batchelor model OM≅ΓΛE∗. From (M,∇) we construct a connection on the total space of the vector bundle E→M. This reduction of ∇ is well-defined independently of …
Let {⋅,⋅}P be a variational Poisson bracket in a field model on an affine bundle π over an affine base manifold Mm. Denote by × the commutative associative multiplication in the Poisson algebra A of local functionals Γ(π)→k that take…
In 1931 Elie Cartan constructed a geometry which was rarely considered. Cartan proposed a way to define an infinitesimal metric ds starting from a variational problem on hypersurfaces in an n-dimensional manifold M. This distance depends not only of the point $\textsc{m}\in\mathcal{M}$ but on the orient…
Suppose S is a closed, oriented surface of genus at least two. This paper investigates the geometry of the homology multicurve complex, HC(S,α), of S; a complex closely related to complexes studied by Bestvina-Bux-Margalit and Hatcher. A path in HC(S,α) corresponds to a homotopy class of imm…
In category theory, logic and geometry cooperate with each other producing what is known under the name Synthetic Differential Geometry (SDG). The main difference between SDG and standard differential geometry is that the intuitionistic logic of SDG enforces the existence of infinitesimal objects which essentially modi…
