Geometry and representation of the singular symplectic forms

Wojciech Domitrz, Stanisław Janeczko, Zbigniew Pasternak-Winiarski (2003)

Banach Center Publications

In this paper we show to what extent the closed, singular 2-forms are represented, up to the smooth equivalence, by their restrictions to the corresponding singularity set. In the normalization procedure of the singularity set we find the sufficient conditions for the given closed 2-form to be a pullback of the classical Darboux form. We also find the classification list of simple singularities of the maximal isotropic submanifold-germs in the codimension one Martinet's singular symplectic structures....

Gerstenhaber and Batalin-Vilkovisky algebras; algebraic, geometric, and physical aspects

Claude Roger (2009)

Archivum Mathematicum

We shall give a survey of classical examples, together with algebraic methods to deal with those structures: graded algebra, cohomologies, cohomology operations. The corresponding geometric structures will be described(e.g., Lie algebroids), with particular emphasis on supergeometry, odd supersymplectic structures and their classification. Finally, we shall explain how BV-structures appear in Quantum Field Theory, as a version of functional integral quantization.

Global generalized Bianchi identities for invariant variational problems on gauge-natural bundles

Marcella Palese, Ekkehart Winterroth (2005)

Archivum Mathematicum

We derive both local and global generalized Bianchi identities for classical Lagrangian field theories on gauge-natural bundles. We show that globally defined generalized Bianchi identities can be found without the a priori introduction of a connection. The proof is based on a global decomposition of the variational Lie derivative of the generalized Euler-Lagrange morphism and the representation of the corresponding generalized Jacobi morphism on gauge-natural bundles. In particular, we show that...

Gradient horizontal de fonctions polynomiales

Si Tiep Dinh, Krzysztof Kurdyka, Patrice Orro (2009)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Nous étudions les trajectoires du gradient sous-riemannien (appellé horizontal) de fonctions polynômes. Dans ce cadre l’inégalité de Łojasiewicz n’est pas valide et une trajectoire du gradient horizontal peut être de longueur infinie, et peut même s’accumuler sur une courbe fermée. Nous montrons que ces comportement sont exceptionnels ; et que, pour une fonction générique les trajectoires de son gradient horizontal ont des propriétés similaires au cas du gradient riemannien. Pour obtenir la finitude...

Growth of a primitive of a differential form

Jean-Claude Sikorav (2001)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

For an exact differential form on a Riemannian manifold to have a primitive bounded by a given function f , by Stokes it has to satisfy some weighted isoperimetric inequality. We show the converse up to some constants if M has bounded geometry. For a volume form, it suffices to have the inequality ( | Ω | Ω f d σ for every compact domain Ω M ). This implies in particular the “well-known” result that if M is the universal covering of a compact Riemannian manifold with non-amenable fundamental group, then the volume...
