Nombre de rotation, structures géométriques sur un cercle et groupe de Bott-Virasoro

Laurent Guieu (1996)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Une classification complète des stabilisateurs coadjoints du groupe de Bott-Virasoro est obtenue par une méthode essentiellement géométrique. L’outil de base est le nombre de rotation d’un difféomorphisme du cercle. En particulier, nous mettons en évidence la présence de groupes d’isotropie non-connexes et montrons que la transformation de Miura des opérateurs de Hill peut s’interpréter comme une application moment sur l’espace des structures affines du cercle.

Non-degenerate quadric surfaces of Weingarten type

Dae Won Yoon, Yılmaz Tunçer, Murat Kemal Karacan (2013)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

We study quadric surfaces in Euclidean 3-space with non-degenerate second fundamental form, and classify them in terms of the Gaussian curvature, the mean curvature, the second Gaussian curvature and the second mean curvature.

Non-Euclidean geometry and differential equations

A. Popov (1996)

Banach Center Publications

In this paper a geometrical link between partial differential equations (PDE) and special coordinate nets on two-dimensional smooth manifolds with the a priori given curvature is suggested. The notion of G-class (the Gauss class) of differential equations admitting such an interpretation is introduced. The perspective of this approach is the possibility of applying the instruments and methods of non-Euclidean geometry to the investigation of differential equations. The equations generated by the...

Note on the classification theorems of g -natural metrics on the tangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold ( M , g )

Mohamed Tahar Kadaoui Abbassi (2004)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

In [7], it is proved that all g -natural metrics on tangent bundles of m -dimensional Riemannian manifolds depend on arbitrary smooth functions on positive real numbers, whose number depends on m and on the assumption that the base manifold is oriented, or non-oriented, respectively. The result was originally stated in [8] for the oriented case, but the smoothness was assumed and not explicitly proved. In this note, we shall prove that, both in the oriented and non-oriented cases, the functions generating...
