Tropical Geometry and Mathematical Morphology share the same max-plus and min-plus semiring arithmetic and matrix algebra. In this chapter we summarize some of their main ideas and common (geometric and algebraic) structure, generalize and extend both of them using weighted lattices and a max-⋆ algebra with an ar…
Given a bordified space, Karlsson defines an incidence geometry of stars at infinity. These stars and their incidence are closely related to well-understood objects when the space is hyperbolic, CAT(0), or a bounded convex domain with the Hilbert metric. A question stemming from Karlsson's original paper was whether or…
We study the relation between the centro-affine geometry of star-shaped planar curves and the projective geometry of parametrized maps into $\RP^1$. We show that projectivization induces a map between differential invariants and a bi-Poisson map between Hamiltonian structures. We also show that a Hamiltonian evolution …
Weakly convex polyhedra which are star-shaped with respect to one of their vertices are infinitesimally rigid. This is a partial answer to the question whether every decomposable weakly convex polyhedron is infinitesimally rigid. The proof uses a recent result of Izmestiev on the geometry of convex caps.
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…
We study prolongation of Norden structures on manifolds to their generalized tangent bundles and to their cotangent bundles. In particular, by using methods of generalized geometry, we prove that the cotangent bundle of a complex Norden manifold (M,J,g) admits a structure of Norden manifold, $(T^{\star}(M),\tilde J, …
In the first part of this paper we outline the constructions and properties of Fedosov star product and Berezin-Toeplitz star product. In the second part we outline the basic ideas and recent developments on Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture on the existence of Kähler metrics of constant scalar curvature. In the third part…
The manifold M of star-shaped curves in Rn is considered via the theory of connections on vector bundles, and cyclic D-modules. The appropriate notion of an "integral curve" (i.e. certain admissible deformations) on M is defined, and the resulting space of admissible defo…
In discrete differential geometry, it is widely believed that the discrete Gaussian curvature of a polyhedral vertex star equals the algebraic area of its Gauss image. However, no complete proof has yet been described. We present an elementary proof in which we compare, for a particular normal vector, its winding numbe…
The geometry of five-dimensional Kerr black holes is discussed based on geodesics and Weyl curvatures. Kerr-Star space, Star-Kerr space and Kruskal space are naturally introduced by using special null geodesics. We show that the geodesics of AdS Kerr black hole are integrable, which generalizes the result of Frolov and…
We study a deformation of infinitesimal diffeomorphisms of a smooth manifold. The deformation is based on a general twist. This leads to a differential geometry on a noncommutative algebra of functions whose product is a star-product. The class of noncommutative spaces studied is very rich. Non-anticommutative superspa…
The spherical Radon transform on the unit sphere can be regarded as a member of the analytic family of suitably normalized generalized cosine transforms. We derive new formulas for these transforms and apply them to study classes of intersections bodies in convex geometry.

A differential calculus, differential geometry and the E-R Gravity theory are studied on noncommutative spaces. Noncommutativity is formulated in the star product formalism. The basis for the gravity theory is the infinitesimal algebra of diffeomorphisms. Considering the corresponding Hopf algebra we find that the defo…
In this article, we introduce the notion of star-Ricci tensors in the real hypersurfaces of complex quadric Qm. It is proved that there exist no Hopf hypersurfaces in Qm,m≥3, with commuting star-Ricci tensor or parallel star-Ricci tensor. As a generalization of star-Einstein metric, star-Ricci solitons on M …
It is known that holomorphic Poisson structures are closely related to theories of generalized Kähler geometry and bi-Hermitian structures. In this article, we introduce quantization of holomorphic Poisson structures which are closely related to generalized Kähler structures /bi-Hermitian structures. By resulting nonco…
We compare the star surgery operations introduced in [KS] to the generalized rational blow-down. We show that star surgery shares the properties that make rational blow-down useful for constructions of small exotic symplectic 4-manifolds. Then we show that star surgery operations provide a strictly more general class o…
We derive a closed formula for a star-product on complex projective space and on the domain SU(n+1)/S(U(1)×U(n)) using a completely elementary construction: Starting from the standard star-product of Wick type on Cn+1∖{0} and performing a quantum analogue of Marsden-Weinstein reduction, we ca…
Let K be a nontrivial knot in S3 and t(K) its tunnel number. For any (p≥2,q)-slope in the torus boundary of a closed regular neighborhood of K in S3, denoted by K⋆, it is a nontrivial cable knot in S3. Though t(K⋆)≤t(K)+1, Example 1.1 in Section 1 shows that in some cas…
