The article investigates conditions for isomorphism of singular tangent bundles.

We consider bundle homomorphisms between tangent distributions and vector bundles of the same rank. We study the conditions for fundamental singularities when the bundle homomorphism is induced from a Morin map. When the tangent distribution is the contact structure, we characterize singularities of the bundle homomorp…

In this paper, we develop the theory of singular hermitian metrics on vector bundles. As an application, we give a structure theorem of a projective manifold $X$ with pseudo-effective tangent bundle: $X$ admits a smooth fibration $X \to Y$ to a flat projective manifold $Y$ such that its general fiber is rationally conn…

Researchers compute the cohomology of an elliptic tangent bundle.

Essential obstruction found for gluing $G_{2}-$instantons with singularities.

We give a simple direct proof of uniqueness of tangent cones for singular projectively Hermitian Yang-Mills connections on reflexive sheaves at isolated singularities modelled on $μ$-polystable holomorphic bundles over $\mathbf{P}^{n-1}$.

Study shows stability of tangent bundle through conifold transitions.

The paper derives Gauss-Bonnet formulas for mappings between surfaces with boundary.

In a previous work, the authors introduced the notion of `coherent tangent bundle', which is useful for giving a treatment of singularities of smooth maps without ambient spaces. Two different types of Gauss-Bonnet formulas on coherent tangent bundles on 22-dimensional manifolds were proven, and several applications to…

Paper proves structure for compact Kähler manifolds with pseudo-effective tangent bundles.

We study how the notion of tangent space can be extended from smooth manifolds to diffeological spaces, which are generalizations of smooth manifolds that include singular spaces and infinite-dimensional spaces. We focus on two definitions. The internal tangent space of a diffeological space is defined using smooth cur…

This paper classifies Legendre singularities of sub-Riemannian geodesics on surfaces.

Let $(X, D)$ be a logarithmic pair, and let $h$ be a singular metric on the tangent bundle, smooth on the open part of $X$. We give sufficient conditions on the curvature of $h$ for the logarithmic and the standard cotangent bundles to be big. As an application, we give a metric proof of the bigness of logarithmic cota…

Extends T-duality to non-principal torus actions with elliptic tangent bundles.

In [31,32,33] the Gauss-Bonnet formulas for coherent tangent bundles over compact oriented surfaces (without boundary) were proved. We establish the Gauss-Bonnet theorem for coherent tangent bundles over compact oriented surfaces with boundary. We apply this theorem to investigate global properties of maps between surf…

Newlander-Nirenberg theorem extended to complex b-manifolds.

Cuspidal edges and swallowtails are typical non-degenerate singular points on wave fronts in the Euclidean $3$-space. Their first fundamental forms belong to a class of positive semi-definite metrics called "Kossowski metrics". A point where a Kossowski metric is not positive definite is called a singular point or a se…

Logarithmic connections on complex manifolds with trivial tangent bundle.

This is the first of a series of papers where we relate tangent cones of Hermitian-Yang-Mills connections at an isolated singularity to the complex algebraic geometry of the underlying reflexive sheaf, when the sheaf is locally modelled on the pull-back of a holomorphic vector bundle from the projective space. In this …

We study the singularities of Legendrian subvarieties of contact manifolds in the complex-analytic category and prove two rigidity results. The first one is that Legendrian singularities with reduced tangent cones are contactomorphically biholomorphic to their tangent cones. This result is partly motivated by a problem…

We study codimension one holomorphic distributions on the projective three-space, analyzing the properties of their singular schemes and tangent sheaves. In particular, we provide a classification of codimension one distributions of degree at most 2 with locally free tangent sheaves, and show that codimension one distr…

In this note we introduce the notion of a smooth structure on a conical pseudomanifold $M$ in terms of $C^\infty$-rings of smooth functions on $M$. For a finitely generated smooth structure $C^\infty (M)$ we introduce the notion of the Nash tangent bundle, the Zariski tangent bundle, the tangent bundle of $M$, and the …

In this paper, Legendre curves on unit tangent bundle are given using rotation minimizing (RM) vector fields. Ruled surfaces corresponding to these curves are represented. Singularities of these ruled surfaces are also analyzed and classifed.

The main goal of this paper is to prove the polystability of the logarithmic tangent sheaf $\mathscr T_X(-D)$ of a log canonical pair $(X,D)$ whose canonical bundle $K_X+D$ is ample, generalizing in a significant way a theorem of Enoki. We apply this result and the techniques involved in its proof to get a version of t…

This paper has three objectives. First to recall the link between the classical Legendre-Fenschel transformation and a useful isomorphism between 1-jets of functions on a vector bundle and on its dual. As a particular consequence we obtain the classical isomorphism between the cotangent bundle of the tangent bundle $T^…

The paper derives new Gauss-Bonnet formulas for frontal bundles over surfaces with boundary.

Study conically singular instantons over SU(3)-manifolds, proving existence and dimension formulas.

The paper extends distributions by singular curves, revealing structural equivalences.

In this paper we study holomorphic vector bundles with singular Hermitian metrics whose curvature are Hermitian matrix currents. We obtain an extension theorem for holomorphic jet sections of nef holomorphic vector bundle on compact Kähler manifolds. Using it we prove that Fano manifolds with strong Griffiths nef tange…

The classical Beauville-Bogomolov Decomposition Theorem asserts that any compact Kähler manifold with numerically trivial canonical bundle admits an étale cover that decomposes into a product of a torus, and irreducible, simply-connected Calabi-Yau-- and holomorphic-symplectic manifolds. The decomposition of the simply…

The volume of a k-dimensional foliation $\mathcal{F}$ in a Riemannian manifold $M^{n}$ is defined as the mass of image of the Gauss map, which is a map from M to the Grassmann bundle of k-planes in the tangent bundle. Generalizing a construction by Gluck and Ziller, "singular" foliations by 3-spheres are constructed on…

We prove that the geodesic flow on the unit tangent bundle to every hyperbolic 2-orbifold that is a sphere with 3 or 4 singular points admits explicit genus one Birkhoff sections, and we determine the associated first return maps.

We define the Ricci curvature, as a measure, for certain singular torsion-free connections on the tangent bundle of a manifold. The definition uses an integral formula and vector-valued half-densities. We give relevant examples in which the Ricci measure can be computed. In the time dependent setting, we give a weak no…

The paper defines singular evolutoids and uses them to derive an integral equality.

The study examines Bertrand Legendre curves in the unit tangent bundle over Euclidean plane.

Study of singular foliations of b^k-type and their geometric properties.

Classifies singular foliations of a specific type and studies their extensions.

We introduce a model for Hermitian holormorphic Deligne cohomology on a projective algebraic manifold which allows to incorporate singular hermitian structures along a normal crossing divisor. In the case of a projective curve, the cup-product in cohomology is shown to correspond to a generalization of the Deligne pair…

Study on triviality of tangent and generalized tangent bundles of manifolds.

The purpose of this paper is describe Lagrangian Mechanics for constrained systems on Lie algebroids, a natural framework which covers a wide range of situations (systems on Lie groups, quotients by the action of a Lie group, standard tangent bundles...). In particular, we are interested in two cases: singular Lagrangi…

The paper extends Bochner's technique to singular distributions on manifolds.

Degenerations of rank-two bundles on threefolds lead to isolated point singularities, with rigidity and bubbling properties.

The paper examines Ricci flows with closed and smooth tangent flows, proving uniqueness and characterizing ancient flows.

Consider a codimension $1$ submanifold $N^n\subset M^{n+1}$, where $M^{n+1}\subset\mathbb{R}^{n+2}$ is a hypersurface. The envelope of tangent spaces of $M$ along $N$ generalizes the concept of tangent developable surface of a surface along a curve. In this paper, we study the singularities of these envelopes. There ar…

Logarithmic connections on principal bundles over normal varieties are studied.

The paper is devoted to differential geometry of singular distributions (i.e., of varying dimension) on a Riemannian manifold. Such distributions are defined as images of the tangent bundle under smooth endomorphisms. We prove the novel divergence theorem with the divergence type operator and deduce the Codazzi equatio…

We classify compact Kähler manifolds with semi-positive holomorphic bisectional and big tangent bundles. We also classify compact complex surfaces with semi-positive tangent bundles and compact complex $3$-folds of the form $P(T^*X)$ whose tangent bundles are nef. Moreover, we show that if $X$ is a Fano manifold such t…
