Lectures on generalized complex geometry and supersymmetry

Maxim Zabzine (2006)

Archivum Mathematicum

Similarity:

These are the lecture notes from the 26th Winter School “Geometry and Physics", Czech Republic, Srní, January 14 – 21, 2006. These lectures are an introduction into the realm of generalized geometry based on the tangent plus the cotangent bundle. In particular we discuss the relation of this geometry to physics, namely to two-dimensional field theories. We explain in detail the relation between generalized complex geometry and supersymmetry. We briefly review the generalized Kähler and...

Lie algebroids and mechanics

Paulette Libermann (1996)

Archivum Mathematicum

Similarity:

We give a formulation of certain types of mechanical systems using the structure of groupoid of the tangent and cotangent bundles to the configuration manifold M ; the set of units is the zero section identified with the manifold M . We study the Legendre transformation on Lie algebroids.

Connections in regular Poisson manifolds over ℝ-Lie foliations

Jan Kubarski (2000)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

The subject of this paper is the notion of the connection in a regular Poisson manifold M, defined as a splitting of the Atiyah sequence of its Lie algebroid. In the case when the characteristic foliation F is an ℝ-Lie foliation, the fibre integral operator along the adjoint bundle is used to define the Euler class of the Poisson manifold M. When M is oriented 3-dimensional, the notion of the index of a local flat connection with singularities along a closed transversal is defined. If,...
