Formes et opérateurs différentiels sur les espaces analytiques complexes
The 2-forms, Ω and Ω' on a manifold M with values in vector bundles ξ --> M and ξ' --> M are equivalent if there exist smooth fibered-linear mapsξ --> ξ' and W: ξ --> ξ' with Ω' = UΩ and Ω = WΩ'. It is shown that an ordinary 2-form equivalent to the curvature of a linear connection has locally a non-vanishing integrating factor at each point in the interior of the set rank (ω) = 2 or in the set rank (ω) > 2. Under favorable conditions the same holds at points where...
La systole -dimensionnelle d’une variété riemannienne de dimension a été introduite par M. Berger en 1972. Le problème de la souplesse intersystolique (ou -souplesse) d’une variété est l’étude de la borne supérieure du produit de deux systoles de dimensions complémentaires et si on change la métrique sur dans la classe des métriques de volume . La souplesse intersystolique de signifie que cette borne supérieure est égale à . Quelques résultats particuliers dans cette direction ont...
The distributional -dimensional Jacobian of a map in the Sobolev space which takes values in the sphere can be viewed as the boundary of a rectifiable current of codimension carried by (part of) the singularity of which is topologically relevant. The main purpose of this paper is to investigate the range of the Jacobian operator; in particular, we show that any boundary of codimension can be realized as Jacobian of a Sobolev map valued in . In case is polyhedral, the map we construct...
For every Lie groupoid Φ with m-dimensional base M and every fiber product preserving bundle functor F on the category of fibered manifolds with m-dimensional bases and fiber preserving maps with local diffeomorphisms as base maps, we construct a Lie groupoid ℱ Φ over M. Every action of Φ on a fibered manifold Y → M is extended to an action of ℱ Φ on FY → M.
Let be a principal prolongation of a principal bundle P → M. We classify all gauge natural operators transforming principal connections on P → M and rth order linear connections on M into general connections on . We also describe all geometric constructions of classical linear connections on from principal connections on P → M and rth order linear connections on M.
The main result is the classification of all gauge bundle functors H on the category which admit gauge natural operators transforming principal connections on P → M into general connections on HP → M. We also describe all gauge natural operators of this type. Similar problems are solved for the prolongation of principal connections to HP → P. A special attention is paid to linear connections.
We show that a free graded commutative Banach algebra over a (purely odd) Banach space is a Banach-Grassmann algebra in the sense of Jadczyk and Pilch if and only if is infinite-dimensional. Thus, a large amount of new examples of separable Banach-Grassmann algebras arise in addition to the only one example previously known due to A. Rogers.
