We describe all ${}_m\left(G\right)$-gauge-natural operators lifting right-invariant vector fields X on principal G-bundles P → M with m-dimensional bases into vector fields (X) on the rth order principal prolongation $W^{r}P=P^{r}M{\times }_M{J}^{r}P$ of P → M. In other words, we classify all ${}_m\left(G\right)$-natural transformations $J^{r}LP{\times }_M{W}^{r}P\to T{W}^{r}P=L{W}^{r}P{\times }_M{W}^{r}P$ covering the identity of $W^{r}P$, where $J^{r}LP$ is the r-jet prolongation of the Lie algebroid LP=TP/G of P, i.e. we find all ${}_m\left(G\right)$-natural transformations which are similar to the Kumpera-Spencer isomorphism $J^{r}LP=L{W}^{r}P$. We formulate axioms which...

All natural operators A transforming a linear vector field X on a vector bundle E into a vector field A(X) on the r-jet prolongation $J^{r}E$ of E are given. Similar results are deduced for the r-jet prolongations $J_v^{r}E$ and $J^{\left[r\right]}E$ in place of $J^{r}E$.

Some properties and applications of natural vector bundle morphisms $T_A\circ {⨂}_s^q\to {⨂}_s^q\circ T_A$ over $i{d}_{T_A}$ are presented.

We classify all $ℱ{ℳ}_{m,n}$-natural operators $:J²⟿J²V^A$ transforming second order connections Γ: Y → J²Y on a fibred manifold Y → M into second order connections $\left(\Gamma \right):V^{A}Y\to J²V^{A}Y$ on the vertical Weil bundle $V^{A}Y\to M$ corresponding to a Weil algebra A.

Let m and r be natural numbers and let $P^r:ℳf_m\to ℱℳ$ be the rth order frame bundle functor. Let $F:ℳf_m\to ℱℳ$ and $G:ℳf_k\to ℱℳ$ be natural bundles, where $k=dim\left(P^r{ℝ}^m\right)$. We describe all $ℳf_m$-natural operators A transforming sections σ of $FM\to M$ and classical linear connections ∇ on M into sections A(σ,∇) of $G\left(P^{r}M\right)\to P^{r}M$. We apply this general classification result to many important natural bundles F and G and obtain many particular classifications.

A subalgebra $H$ of a finite dimensional Lie algebra $L$ is said to be a $\mathrm{SCAP}$-subalgebra if there is a chief series $0=L_0\subset L_1\subset ...\subset L_t=L$ of $L$ such that for every $i=1,2,...,t$, we have $H+L_i=H+L_{i-1}$ or $H\cap L_i=H\cap L_{i-1}$. This is analogous to the concept of $\mathrm{SCAP}$-subgroup, which has been studied by a number of authors. In this article, we investigate the connection between the structure of a Lie algebra and its $\mathrm{SCAP}$-subalgebras and give some sufficient conditions for a Lie algebra to be solvable or supersolvable.

We prove that the problem of finding all $ℳf_m$-natural operators $B:Q⟿Q{T}^A$ lifting classical linear connections ∇ on m-manifolds M to classical linear connections $B_M\left(\nabla \right)$ on the Weil bundle $T^{A}M$ corresponding to a p-dimensional (over ℝ) Weil algebra A is equivalent to the one of finding all $ℳf_m$-natural operators $C:Q⟿(T{¹}_{p-1},T*\otimes T*\otimes T)$ transforming classical linear connections ∇ on m-manifolds M into base-preserving fibred maps $C_M\left(\nabla \right):T{¹}_{p-1}M={⨁}_M^{p-1}TM\to T*M\otimes T*M\otimes TM$.

Let m,n be positive integers such that m < n and let G(n,m) be the Grassmann manifold of all m-dimensional subspaces of ℝⁿ. For V ∈ G(n,m) let ${\pi }_V$ denote the orthogonal projection from ℝⁿ onto V. The following characterization of purely unrectifiable sets holds. Let A be an ${}^m$-measurable subset of ℝⁿ with ${}^m\left(A\right)<\infty$. Then A is purely m-unrectifiable if and only if there exists a null subset Z of the universal bundle $(V,v)\left|V\in G\right(n,m),v\in V$ such that, for all P ∈ A, one has ${}^{m(n-m)}\left(V\in G(n,m)\left|\right(V,{\pi }_V\left(P\right))\in Z\right)>0$. One can replace “for all P ∈ A” by “for...

We first prove a strengthening of Miyaoka’s generic semi-positivity theorem: the quotients of the tensor powers of the cotangent bundle of a non-uniruled complex projective manifold $X$ have a pseudo-effective (instead of generically nef) determinant. A first consequence is that $X$ is of general type if its cotangent bundle contains a subsheaf with ‘big’ determinant. Among other applications, we deduce that if the universal cover of $X$ is not covered by compact positive-dimensional analytic...

We describe all ${ℱ}^2{ℳ}_{m_1,m_2,n_1,n_2}$-natural operators $D:Q_{proj-proj}^{\tau }⇝Q{T}^{*}$ transforming projectable-projectable classical torsion-free linear connections $\nabla$ on fibred-fibred manifolds $Y$ into classical linear connections $D\left(\nabla \right)$ on cotangent bundles $T^{*}Y$ of $Y$. We show that this problem can be reduced to finding ${ℱ}^2{ℳ}_{m_1,m_2,n_1,n_2}$-natural operators $D:Q_{proj-proj}^{\tau }⇝(T^{*},{\otimes }^p{T}^{*}\otimes {\otimes }^{q}T)$ for $p=2$, $q=1$ and $p=3$, $q=0$.

We classify all ${ℱ}^2{ℳ}_{m_1,m_2,n_1,n_2}$-natural operators $A$ transforming projectable-projectable torsion-free classical linear connections $\nabla$ on fibered-fibered manifolds $Y$ of dimension $(m_1,m_2,n_1,n_2)$ into $r$th order Lagrangians $A\left(r\right)$ on the fibered-fibered linear frame bundle $L^{fib-fib}\left(Y\right)$ on $Y$. Moreover, we classify all ${ℱ}^2{ℳ}_{m_1,m_2,n_1,n_2}$-natural operators $B$ transforming projectable-projectable torsion-free classical linear connections r on fiberedfibered manifolds $Y$ of dimension $(m_1,m_2,n_1,n_2)$ into Euler morphism $B\left(\nabla \right)$ on $L^{fib-fib}\left(Y\right)$. These classifications can be expanded on...

This paper investigates a universal PBW-basis and a minimal set of generators for the Hall algebra $\mathscr{H}\left(C_2\left(𝒫\right)\right)$, where $C_2\left(𝒫\right)$ is the category of morphisms between projective objects in a finitary hereditary exact category $𝒜$. When $𝒜$ is the representation category of a Dynkin quiver, we develop multiplication formulas for the degenerate Hall Lie algebra $ℒ$, which is spanned by isoclasses of indecomposable objects in $C_2\left(𝒫\right)$. As applications, we demonstrate that $ℒ$ contains a Lie subalgebra isomorphic to the central...

Let $X$ be a smooth projective curve of genus $g\ge 2$ defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p\&gt;0$. Given a semistable vector bundle $E$ over $X$, we show that its direct image $F_{*}E$ under the Frobenius map $F$ of $X$ is again semistable. We deduce a numerical characterization of the stable rank-$p$ vector bundles $F_{*}L$, where $L$ is a line bundle over $X$.

A regular normal parabolic geometry of type $G/P$ on a manifold $M$ gives rise to sequences $D_i$ of invariant differential operators, known as the curved version of the BGG resolution. These sequences are constructed from the normal covariant derivative ${\nabla }^{\omega }$ on the corresponding tractor bundle $V$, where $\omega$ is the normal Cartan connection. The first operator $D_0$ in the sequence is overdetermined and it is well known that ${\nabla }^{\omega }$ yields the prolongation of this operator in the homogeneous case $M=G/P$. Our first...

We give a classification of all linear natural operators transforming $p$-vectors (i.e., skew-symmetric tensor fields of type $(p,0)$) on $n$-dimensional manifolds $M$ to tensor fields of type $(q,0)$ on $T^{A}M$, where $T^A$ is a Weil bundle, under the condition that $p\ge 1$, $n\ge p$ and $n\ge q$. The main result of the paper states that, roughly speaking, each linear natural operator lifting $p$-vectors to tensor fields of type $(q,0)$ on $T^A$ is a sum of operators obtained by permuting the indices of the tensor products of linear natural...

It is well known that the concept of holonomic $r$-jet can be geometrically characterized in terms of the contact of individual curves. However, this is not true for the semiholonomic $r$-jets, [5], [8]. In the present paper, we discuss systematically the semiholonomic case.

We prove that any first order ${ℱ}_2{ℳ}_{m_1,m_2,n_1,n_2}$-natural operator transforming projectable general connections on an $(m_1,m_2,n_1,n_2)$-dimensional fibred-fibred manifold $p=(p,p):(p_Y:Y\to Y)\to (p_M:M\to M)$ into general connections on the vertical prolongation $VY\to M$ of $p:Y\to M$ is the restriction of the (rather well-known) vertical prolongation operator $𝒱$ lifting general connections $\overline{\Gamma }$ on a fibred manifold $Y\to M$ into $𝒱\overline{\Gamma }$ (the vertical prolongation of $\overline{\Gamma }$) on $VY\to M$.

Let $J^{r}T*M$ be the r-jet prolongation of the cotangent bundle of an n-dimensional manifold M and let $(J^{r}T*M)*$ be the dual vector bundle. For natural numbers r and n, a complete classification of all linear natural operators lifting 1-forms from M to 1-forms on $(J^{r}T*M)*$ is given.

Let $M$ be an $m$-dimensional manifold and $A={𝔻}_k^r/I=ℝ\oplus N_A$ a Weil algebra of height $r$. We prove that any $A$-covelocity $T_x^{A}f\in T_x^{A*}M$, $x\in M$ is determined by its values over arbitrary $max\{\mathrm{width}A,m\}$ regular and under the first jet projection linearly independent elements of $T_x^{A}M$. Further, we prove the rigidity of the so-called universally reparametrizable Weil algebras. Applying essentially those partial results we give the proof of the general rigidity result $T^{A*}M\simeq T^{r*}M$ without coordinate computations, which improves and generalizes the partial...

We extend the concept of r-order connections on fibred manifolds to the one of (r,s,q)-order projectable connections on fibred-fibred manifolds, where r,s,q are arbitrary non-negative integers with s ≥ r ≤ q. Similarly to the fibred manifold case, given a bundle functor F of order r on (m₁,m₂,n₁,n₂)-dimensional fibred-fibred manifolds Y → M, we construct a general connection ℱ(Γ,Λ):FY → J¹FY on FY → M from a projectable general (i.e. (1,1,1)-order) connection $\Gamma :Y\to J^{1,1,1}Y$ on Y → M by means of an...

Si studiano gli omomorfismi reticolari ($ℒ$-omomorfismi) di algebre di Lie sopra anelli commutativi con unità. Le algebre di Lie sopra un campo e le $p$-algebre di Lie non ammettono $ℒ$-omomorfismi propri. Si assegnano condizioni necessarie e sufficienti affinchè un'algebra di Lie periodica o mista possieda un «$ℒ$-omomorfismo su una catena di lunghezza $n$.

We study  how a projectable general connection $\Gamma$ in a 2-fibred manifold $Y^2\to Y^1\to Y^0$  and a general vertical connection $\Theta$ in $Y^2\to Y^1\to Y^0$ induce a general connection $A(\Gamma ,\Theta )$ in $Y^2\to Y^1$.

Let $𝒜={\left\{A_t\right\}}_{t\in G}$ and $ℬ={\left\{B_t\right\}}_{t\in G}$ be $C^{*}$-algebraic bundles over a finite group $G$. Let $C={⨁}_{t\in G}{A}_t$ and $D={⨁}_{t\in G}{B}_t$. Also, let $A=A_e$ and $B=B_e$, where $e$ is the unit element in $G$. We suppose that $C$ and $D$ are unital and $A$ and $B$ have the unit elements in $C$ and $D$, respectively. In this paper, we show that if there is an equivalence $𝒜-ℬ$-bundle over $G$ with some properties, then the unital inclusions of unital $C^{*}$-algebras $A\subset C$ and $B\subset D$ induced by $𝒜$ and $ℬ$ are strongly Morita equivalent. Also, we suppose that $𝒜$ and $ℬ$ are saturated and that $A^{\text{'}}\cap C=𝐂1$. We show that...

If $(M,g)$ is a Riemannian manifold, we have the well-known base preserving   vector bundle isomorphism $TM\widetilde{=}{T}^{*}M$ given by $v\to g(v,-)$ between the tangent $TM$ and the cotangent $T^{*}M$ bundles of $M$. In the present note, we generalize this isomorphism to the one $T^{\left(r\right)}M\widetilde{=}{T}^{r*}M$ between the $r$-th order vector tangent $T^{\left(r\right)}M={\left(J^r{(M,R)}_0\right)}^{*}$ and the $r$-th order cotangent $T^{r*}M=J^r{(M,R)}_0$ bundles of $M$. Next, we describe all base preserving  vector bundle maps $C_M\left(g\right):T^{\left(r\right)}M\to T^{r*}M$ depending on a Riemannian metric $g$ in terms of natural (in $g$) tensor fields on $M$.
