Linear direct connections

Jan Kubarski, Nicolae Teleman (2007)

Banach Center Publications

In this paper we study the geometry of direct connections in smooth vector bundles (see N. Teleman [Tn.3]); we show that the infinitesimal part, τ , of a direct connection τ is a linear connection. We determine the curvature tensor of the associated linear connection τ . As an application of these results, we present a direct proof of N. Teleman’s Theorem 6.2 [Tn.3], which shows that it is possible to represent the Chern character of smooth vector bundles as the periodic cyclic homology class of a...

Linear hamiltonian circle actions that generate minimal Hilbert bases

Ágúst Sverrir Egilsson (2000)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

The orbit space of a linear Hamiltonian circle action and the reduced orbit space, at zero, are examples of singular Poisson spaces. The orbit space inherits the Poisson algebra of functions invariant under the linear circle action and the reduced orbit space inherits the Poisson algebra obtained by restricting the invariant functions to the reduced space. Both spaces reside inside smooth manifolds, which in turn inherit almost Poisson structures from the Poisson varieties. In this paper we consider...

Linear liftings of affinors to Weil bundles

Jacek Dębecki (2003)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We give a classification of all linear natural operators transforming affinors on each n-dimensional manifold M into affinors on T A M , where T A is the product preserving bundle functor given by a Weil algebra A, under the condition that n ≥ 2.

Linear liftings of skew-symmetric tensor fields to Weil bundles

Jacek Dębecki (2005)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

We define equivariant tensors for every non-negative integer p and every Weil algebra A and establish a one-to-one correspondence between the equivariant tensors and linear natural operators lifting skew-symmetric tensor fields of type ( p , 0 ) on an n -dimensional manifold M to tensor fields of type ( p , 0 ) on T A M if 1 p n . Moreover, we determine explicitly the equivariant tensors for the Weil algebras 𝔻 k r , where k and r are non-negative integers.

Linearization and explicit solutions of the minimal surface equations.

Alexander G. Reznikov (1992)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

We show that the apparatus of support functions, usually used in convex surfaces theory, leads to the linear equation Δh + 2h = 0 describing locally germs of minimal surfaces. Here Δ is the Laplace-Beltrami operator on the standard two-dimensional sphere. It explains the existence of the sum operator of minimal surfaces, introduced recently. In 4-dimensional space the equation Δ h + 2h = 0 becomes inequality wherever the Gauss curvature of a minimal hypersurface is nonzero.

Linearization and star products

Veronique Chloup (2000)

Banach Center Publications

The aim of this paper is to give an overview concerning the problem of linearization of Poisson structures, more precisely we give results concerning Poisson-Lie groups and we apply those cohomological techniques to star products.

Linearization of Poisson actions and singular values of matrix products

Anton Alekseev, Eckhard Meinrenken, Chris Woodward (2001)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We prove that the linearization functor from the category of Hamiltonian K -actions with group-valued moment maps in the sense of Lu, to the category of ordinary Hamiltonian K - actions, preserves products up to symplectic isomorphism. As an application, we give a new proof of the Thompson conjecture on singular values of matrix products and extend this result to the case of real matrices. We give a formula for the Liouville volume of these spaces and obtain from it a hyperbolic version of the Duflo...
