The transversal wave equation and the noncommutative geodesic flow in Riemannian foliations

چکیده
Let (M,F) be a compact Riemannian foliated manifold, equipped with a bundlelike metric gM . We will also use the following notation: N ∗F is the conormal bundle to F , G is the holonomy groupoid of F . In Introduction, we will formulate our main results for the geometric case of the transverse signature operator, referring the reader to the main body of the paper for the formulations in the case of a general transversally elliptic operator. Recall that the transverse signature operator is a first order differential operator in the space C(M,ΛT M):

Egorov’s theorem for transversally elliptic operators on foliated manifolds and noncommutative geodesic flow
The main result of the paper is Egorov’s theorem for transversally elliptic operators on compact foliated manifolds. This theorem is applied to describe the noncommutative geodesic flow in noncommutative geometry of Riemannian foliations.
متن کاملIdentification of Riemannian foliations on the tangent bundle via SODE structure
The geometry of a system of second order differential equations is the geometry of a semispray, which is a globally defined vector field on TM. The metrizability of a given semispray is of special importance. In this paper, the metric associated with the semispray S is applied in order to study some types of foliations on the tangent bundle which are compatible with SODE structure. Indeed, suff...
متن کاملOn the k-nullity foliations in Finsler geometry
Here, a Finsler manifold $(M,F)$ is considered with corresponding curvature tensor, regarded as $2$-forms on the bundle of non-zero tangent vectors. Certain subspaces of the tangent spaces of $M$ determined by the curvature are introduced and called $k$-nullity foliations of the curvature operator. It is shown that if the dimension of foliation is constant, then the distribution is involutive...
متن کاملLightlike foliations of semi-Riemannian manifolds1
Using screen distributions and lightlike transversal vector bundles we develop a theory of degenerate foliations of semiRiemannian manifolds. We build lightlike foliations of a semiRiemannian manifold by suspension of a group homomorphism φ : π1(B, x0) → Isom(T ). We compute the basic cohomology groups of the flow determined by a lightlike Killing vector field on a complete semi-Riemannian mani...
