GEOMETRIC CONSTRUCTION OF THE LEVI-CIVITA PARALLELISM To Bill Lawvere on the occasion of his 60th birthday

چکیده
In terms of synthetic differential geometry, we give a variational characterization of the connection (parallelism) associated to a pseudo-Riemannian metric on a manifold.

Operator-valued tensors on manifolds
In this paper we try to extend geometric concepts in the context of operator valued tensors. To this end, we aim to replace the field of scalars $ mathbb{R} $ by self-adjoint elements of a commutative $ C^star $-algebra, and reach an appropriate generalization of geometrical concepts on manifolds. First, we put forward the concept of operator-valued tensors and extend semi-Riemannian...

متن کاملCutting Sequences and Palindromes
We give a unified geometric approach to some theorems about primitive elements and palindromes in free groups of rank 2. The geometric treatment gives new proofs of the theorems. This paper is dedicated to Bill Harvey on the occasion of his 65th birthday.
متن کاملKinematic Reduction and the Hamilton-jacobi Equation
A close relationship between the classical HamiltonJacobi theory and the kinematic reduction of control systems by decoupling vector fields is shown in this paper. The geometric interpretation of this relationship relies on new mathematical techniques for mechanics defined on a skew-symmetric algebroid. This geometric structure allows us to describe in a simplified way the mechanics of nonholon...
