Natural symplectic structures on the tangent bundle of a space-time
In this nice paper the author proves that all natural symplectic forms on the tangent bundle of a pseudo-Riemannian manifold are pull-backs of the canonical symplectic form on the cotangent bundle with respect to some diffeomorphisms which are naturally induced by the metric.

Higher order valued reduction theorems for classical connections
We generalize reduction theorems for classical connections to operators with values in k-th order natural bundles. Using the 2nd order valued reduction theorems we classify all (0,2)-tensor fields on the cotangent bundle of a manifold with a linear (non-symmetric) connection.
Reduction theorem for general connections
We prove the (first) reduction theorem for general and classical connections, i.e. we prove that any natural operator of a general connection Γ on a fibered manifold and a classical connection Λ on the base manifold can be expressed as a zero order operator of the curvature tensors of Γ and Λ and their appropriate derivatives.

Hidden symmetries of the gravitational contact structure of the classical phase space of general relativistic test particle
The phase space of general relativistic test particle is defined as the 1-jet space of motions. A Lorentzian metric defines the canonical contact structure on the odd-dimensional phase space. In the paper we study infinitesimal symmetries of the gravitational contact phase structure which are not generated by spacetime infinitesimal symmetries, i.e. they are hidden symmetries. We prove that Killing multivector fields admit hidden symmetries of the gravitational contact phase structure and we give...

Remarks on local Lie algebras of pairs of functions
Starting by the famous paper by Kirillov, local Lie algebras of functions over smooth manifolds were studied very intensively by mathematicians and physicists. In the present paper we study local Lie algebras of pairs of functions which generate infinitesimal symmetries of almost-cosymplectic-contact structures of odd dimensional manifolds.
On Lie algebras of generators of infinitesimal symmetries of almost-cosymplectic-contact structures
We study Lie algebras of generators of infinitesimal symmetries of almost-cosymplectic-contact structures of odd dimensional manifolds. The almost-cosymplectic-contact structure admits on the sheaf of pairs of 1-forms and functions the structure of a Lie algebra. We describe Lie subalgebras in this Lie algebra given by pairs generating infinitesimal symmetries of basic tensor fields given by the almost-cosymplectic-contact structure.
Relations between constants of motion and conserved functions
We study relations between functions on the cotangent bundle of a spacetime which are constants of motion for geodesics and functions on the odd-dimensional phase space conserved by the Reeb vector fields of geometrical structures generated by the metric and an electromagnetic field.
Remarks on natural differential operators with tensor fields
We study natural differential operators transforming two tensor fields into a tensor field. First, it is proved that all bilinear operators are of order one, and then we give the full classification of such operators in several concrete situations.
Geometric structures on the tangent bundle of the Einstein spacetime
We describe conditions under which a spacetime connection and a scaled Lorentzian metric define natural symplectic and Poisson structures on the tangent bundle of the Einstein spacetime.
