On the geometry of Goursat structures

William Pasillas-Lépine, Witold Respondek (2001)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

A Goursat structure on a manifold of dimension n is a rank two distribution 𝒟 such that dim 𝒟 ( i ) = i + 2 , for 0 i n - 2 , where 𝒟 ( i ) denote the elements of the derived flag of 𝒟 , defined by 𝒟 ( 0 ) = 𝒟 and 𝒟 ( i + 1 ) = 𝒟 ( i ) + [ 𝒟 ( i ) , 𝒟 ( i ) ] . Goursat structures appeared first in the work of von Weber and Cartan, who have shown that on an open and dense subset they can be converted into the so-called Goursat normal form. Later, Goursat structures have been studied by Kumpera and Ruiz. In the paper, we introduce a new local invariant for Goursat structures, called...

On the group of real analytic diffeomorphisms

Takashi Tsuboi (2009)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

The group of real analytic diffeomorphisms of a real analytic manifold is a rich group. It is dense in the group of smooth diffeomorphisms. Herman showed that for the n -dimensional torus, its identity component is a simple group. For U ( 1 ) fibered manifolds, for manifolds admitting special semi-free U ( 1 ) actions and for 2- or 3-dimensional manifolds with nontrivial U ( 1 ) actions, we show that the identity component of the group of real analytic diffeomorphisms is a perfect group.
