Algebroid nature of the characteristic classes of flat bundles

Jan Kubarski (1998)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

The following two homotopic notions are important in many domains of differential geometry: - homotopic homomorphisms between principal bundles (and between other objects), - homotopic subbundles. They play a role, for example, in many fundamental problems of characteristic classes. It turns out that both these notions can be - in a natural way - expressed in the language of Lie algebroids. Moreover, the characteristic homomorphisms of principal bundles (the Chern-Weil homomorphism [K4],...

Representation of a gauge group as motions of a Hilbert space

Clara Lucía Aldana Domínguez (2004)

Annales mathématiques Blaise Pascal

Similarity:

This is a survey article based on the author’s Master thesis on affine representations of a gauge group. Most of the results presented here are well-known to differential geometers and physicists familiar with gauge theory. However, we hope this short systematic presentation offers a useful self-contained introduction to the subject. In the first part we present the construction of the group of motions of a Hilbert space and we explain the way in which it can be considered...

Tangent lifts of higher order of multiplicative Dirac structures

P. M. Kouotchop Wamba, A. Ntyam (2013)

Archivum Mathematicum

Similarity:

The tangent lifts of higher order of Dirac structures and some properties have been defined in [9] and studied in [11]. By the same way, the tangent lifts of higher order of Poisson structures have been studied in [10] and some applications are given. In particular, the authors have studied the nature of the Lie algebroids and singular foliations induced by these lifting. In this paper, we study the tangent lifts of higher order of multiplicative Poisson structures, multiplicative Dirac...
