On the jets of foliation respecting maps

Miroslav Doupovec, Ivan Kolář, Włodzimierz M. Mikulski (2010)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Using Weil algebra techniques, we determine all finite dimensional homomorphic images of germs of foliation respecting maps.

On the kernel of holonomy.

Ana Paula Caetano (1996)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

A connection on a principal G-bundle may be identified with a smooth group morphism H : GL∞(M) → G, called a holonomy, where GL∞(M) is a group of equivalence classes of loops on the base M. The present article focuses on the kernel of this morphism, which consists of the classes of loops along which parallel transport is trivial. Use is made of a formula expressing the gauge potential as a suitable derivative of the holonomy, allowing a different proof of a theorem of Lewandowski’s, which states...

On the Kolář connection

Włodzimierz M. Mikulski (2013)

Archivum Mathematicum

Let Y M be a fibred manifold with m -dimensional base and n -dimensional fibres and E M be a vector bundle with the same base M and with n -dimensional fibres (the same n ). If m 2 and n 3 , we classify all canonical constructions of a classical linear connection A ( Γ , Λ , Φ , Δ ) on Y from a system ( Γ , Λ , Φ , Δ ) consisting of a general connection Γ on Y M , a torsion free classical linear connection Λ on M , a vertical parallelism Φ : Y × M E V Y on Y and a linear connection Δ on E M . An example of such A ( Γ , Λ , Φ , Δ ) is the connection ( Γ , Λ , Φ , Δ ) by I. Kolář.

On the linearization theorem for proper Lie groupoids

Marius Crainic, Ivan Struchiner (2013)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

We revisit the linearization theorems for proper Lie groupoids around general orbits (statements and proofs). In the fixed point case (known as Zung’s theorem) we give a shorter and more geometric proof, based on a Moser deformation argument. The passage to general orbits (Weinstein) is given a more conceptual interpretation: as a manifestation of Morita invariance. We also clarify the precise statements of the Linearization Theorem (there has been some confusion on this, which has propagated throughout...

On the local moduli space of locally homogeneous affine connections in plane domains

Oldřich Kowalski, Zdeněk Vlášek (2003)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Classification of locally homogeneous affine connections in two dimensions is a nontrivial problem. (See [5] and [7] for two different versions of the solution.) Using a basic formula by B. Opozda, [7], we prove that all locally homogeneous torsion-less affine connections defined in open domains of a 2-dimensional manifold depend essentially on at most 4 parameters (see Theorem 2.4).
