Johnson has defined a surjective homomorphism from the Torelli subgroup of the mapping class group of the surface of genus $g$ with one boundary component to $\wedge^3 H$, the third exterior product of the homology of the surface. Morita then extended Johnson's homomorphism to a homomorphism from the entire mapping cla…

In \cite{KOT:MORITA}, Kotschick and Morita showed that the Gel'fand-Kalinin-Fuks class in $\ds \HGF{7}{2}{}{8}$ is decomposed as a product $η\wedge ω$ of some leaf cohomology class $η$ and a transverse symplectic class $ω$. In other words, the Kontsevich homomorphism $\dsω\wedge :\HGF{5}{2}{0}{10} \rightarrow\HGF{7}{2}…

The main result of the paper is a new representation for the Weyl Lagrangian (massless Dirac Lagrangian). As the dynamical variable we use the coframe, i.e. an orthonormal tetrad of covector fields. We write down a simple Lagrangian - wedge product of axial torsion with a lightlike element of the coframe - and show tha…

We define quantum exterior product wedge_h and quantum exterior differential d_h on Poisson manifolds (of which symplectic manifolds are an important class of examples). Quantum de Rham cohomology, which is a deformation quantization of de Rham cohomology, is defined as the cohomology of d_h. We also define quantum Dol…

The abstract manifold cannot have uniformly quasiregular self-maps.

Multisymplectic geometry admits an operation that has no counterpart in symplectic geometry, namely, taking the product of two multisymplectic manifolds endowed with the wedge product of the multisymplectic forms. We show that there is an L-infinity-embedding of the L-infinity-algebra of observables of the individual f…

A conservative discretization of incompressible Navier-Stokes equations is developed based on discrete exterior calculus (DEC). A distinguishing feature of our method is the use of an algebraic discretization of the interior product operator and a combinatorial discretization of the wedge product. The governing equatio…

We prove that on a compact Sasakian manifold $(M, η, g)$ of dimension $2n+1$, for any $0 \le p \le n$ the wedge product with $η\wedge (dη)^p$ defines an isomorphism between the spaces of harmonic forms $Ω^{n-p}_Δ(M)$ and $Ω^{n+p+1}_Δ(M)$. Therefore it induces an isomorphism between the de Rham cohomology spaces $H^{n-p…

We define quantum exterior product wedge_h and quantum exterior differential d_h on Poisson manifolds, of which symplectic manifolds are an important class of examples. Quantum de Rham cohomology is defined as the cohomology of d_h. We also define quantum Dolbeault cohomology. Quantum hard Lefschetz theorem is proved. …

In this paper we develop several algebraic structures on the simplicial cochains of a triangulated manifold that are analogues of objects in differential geometry. We study a cochain product and prove several statements about its convergence to the wedge product on differential forms. Also, for cochains with an inner p…

Differential forms on an odd symplectic manifold form a bicomplex: one differential is the wedge product with the symplectic form and the other is de Rham differential. In the corresponding spectral sequence the next differential turns out to be the Batalin-Vilkoviski operator.

We classify manifolds of small dimension that admit both, a Riemannian metric of non-negative scalar curvature, and a -- a priori different -- metric for which all wedge products of harmonic forms are harmonic. For manifolds whose first Betti numbers are sufficiently large, this classification extends to higher dimensi…

The paper examines metrics on foliated manifolds that have special geometric properties.

Let $E$ be a vector bundle over a suitable differential manifold $M$ and let $\wedge^p E$ denote $p$-exterior product of $E$. Given sections $ω_1,\dots,ω_k$ of $E$ and a section $η$ of $\wedge^p E$, we consider the problem if $η$ can be written in the form $η=\sum ω_i\wedgeγ_i,$ where $γ_i$ are sections of $\wedge^{p…

The study finds minimal hypersurfaces in wedge-shaped manifolds with boundary.

In this paper we prove a family of results connecting the problem of computing cup products in surface bundles to various other objects that appear in the theory of the cohomology of the mapping class group $\operatorname{Mod}_g$ and the Torelli group $\mathcal{I}_g$. We show that N. Kawazumi's twisted MMM class $m_{0,…

Study of group orderability using tensor and exterior squares.

Wedge product on deRham complex of a Riemannian manifold $M$ can be pulled back to $H^*(M)$ via explicit homotopy, constructed using Green's operator, to give higher product structures. We prove Fukaya's conjecture which suggests that Witten deformation of these higher product structures have semiclassical limits as op…

We obtain a family of matrix integrals which decompose to a product of Gamma-functions (they have some relations with S.G.Gindikin 'Beta', but generally speaking essentially differ from it). We obtain Plancherel formula for Berezin representations for all series of classical groups (for large values of parameters of re…

Curvature estimate for stable free boundary minimal hypersurfaces in wedge-shaped manifolds.

We study the distribution of the common zero sets of $m$-tuples of holomorphic sections of powers of $m$ singular Hermitian pseudo-effective line bundles on a compact Kähler manifold. As an application, we obtain sufficient conditions which ensure that the wedge product of the curvature currents of these line bundles c…

Let $(M^{n},g)$ be a closed, connected, oriented, $C^{\infty}$, Riemannian, n-manifold with a transversely oriented foliation $\boldkey F$. We show that if $\lbrace X,Y \rbrace$ are basic vector fields, the leaf component of $[X,Y]$, $\Cal{V}[X,Y]$, has vanishing leaf divergence whenever $κ\wedge χ_{\boldkey F}$ is a c…

A quasi-Poisson manifold is a G-manifold equipped with an invariant bivector field whose Schouten bracket is the trivector field generated by the invariant element in $\wedge^3 \g$ associated to an invariant inner product. We introduce the concept of the fusion for such manifolds, and we relate quasi-Poisson manifolds …

We show that normalized currents of integration along the common zeros of random $m$-tuples of sections of powers of $m$ singular Hermitian big line bundles on a compact Kähler manifold distribute asymptotically to the wedge product of the curvature currents of the metrics. If the Hermitian metrics are Hölder with sing…

Defines a bundle map for currents on manifolds using higher covariant derivatives.

We study stable commutator length (scl) in free products via surface maps into a wedge of spaces. We prove that scl is piecewise rational linear if it vanishes on each factor of the free product, generalizing the main result in Danny Calegari's paper "Scl, sails and surgery". We further prove that the property of isome…

Differential chains are a proper subspace of de Rham currents given as an inductive limit of Banach spaces endowed with a geometrically defined strong topology. Boundary is a continuous operator, as are operators that dualize to Hodge star, Lie derivative, pullback and interior product. Partitions of unity exist in thi…

In this notes it will be provided a set of techniques which can help one to understand the proof of the Hochschild-Kostant-Rosenberg theorem for differentiable manifolds. Precise definitions of multidiferential operators and polyderivations on an algebra are given, allowing to work on these concepts, when the algebra i…

We study the spectrum and heat kernel of the Hodge Laplacian with coefficients in a flat bundle on a closed manifold degenerating to a manifold with wedge singularities. Provided the Hodge Laplacians in the fibers of the wedge have an appropriate spectral gap, we give uniform constructions of the resolvent and heat ker…

A discrete (finite-difference) analogue of differential forms is considered, defined on simplicial complexes, including triangulations of continuous manifolds. Various operations are explicitly defined on these forms, including exterior derivative and exterior product. The latter one is non-associative. Instead, as ant…

This is a survey article on the recent progress in understanding the Strominger-Yau-Zaslow (SYZ) mirror symmetry conjecture, especially on the effect of quantum corrections, via Witten-Morse theory using the program first depicted by Fukaya to obtain an explicit relation between differential geometric operations, e.g. …

Let M denote a compact, orientable, 3-dimensional manifold and let a denote a contact 1-form on M; thus the wedge product of a with da is nowhere zero. This article explains how the Seiberg-Witten Floer homology groups as defined for any given Spin-C structure on M give closed, integral curves of the vector field that …

Consider a financial market in which an agent trades with utility-induced restrictions on wealth. By introducing a general convex-analytic framework which includes the class of umbrella wedges in certain Riesz spaces and faces of convex sets (consisting of probability measures), together with a duality theory for polar…

A Riemannian manifold is called geometrically formal if the wedge product of harmonic forms is again harmonic, which implies in the compact case that the manifold is topologically formal in the sense of rational homotopy theory. A manifold admitting a Riemannian metric of positive sectional curvature is conjectured to …

Higher nilpotent analogues of the $A-\infty$-structure are explicitly defined on arbitrary simplicial complexes, generalizing explicit construction of /hep-th/0704.2609. These structures are associated with the higher nilpotent differential $d_n$, satisfying $d_n^n =0$, which is naturally defined on triangulated manifo…
