Geometric Structures on Loop and Path Spaces
نویسنده
چکیده
Is is known that the loop space associated to a Riemannian manifold admits a quasi-symplectic structure. This article shows that this structure is not likely to recover the underlying Riemannian metric by proving a result that is a strong indication of the “almost” independence of the quasi-symplectic structure with respect to the metric. Finally conditions to have contact structures on these spaces are studied.

On the category of geometric spaces and the category of (geometric) hypergroups
In this paper first we define the morphism between geometric spaces in two different types. We construct two categories of $uu$ and $l$ from geometric spaces then investigate some properties of the two categories, for instance $uu$ is topological. The relation between hypergroups and geometric spaces is studied. By constructing the category $qh$ of $H_{v}$-groups we answer the question...
متن کاملEinstein structures on four-dimensional nutral Lie groups
When Einstein was thinking about the theory of general relativity based on the elimination of especial relativity constraints (especially the geometric relationship of space and time), he understood the first limitation of especial relativity is ignoring changes over time. Because in especial relativity, only the curvature of the space was considered. Therefore, tensor calculations should be to...
متن کاملIterated Path Integrals
The classical calculus of variation is a critical point theory of certain differentiable functions (or functional) on a smooth or piecewise smooth path space, whose differentiable structure is defined implicitly. Because of the importance of path spaces to analysis, geometry and other fields, it is desirable to develop a geometric integration theory or a de Rham theory for path spaces. Having i...
متن کاملPath Connectedness and Invertible Matrices
Though path-connectedness is a very geometric and visual property, math lets us formalize it and use it to gain geometric insight into spaces that we cannot visualize. In these notes, we will consider spaces of matrices, which (in general) we cannot draw as regions in R or R. To begin studying these spaces, we first explicitly define the concept of a path. Definition 1.1. A path in X is a conti...
متن کاملOn Geometric Structure of Global Roundings for Graphs and Range Spaces
Given a hypergraph H = (V,F) and a [0, 1]-valued vector a ∈ [0, 1] , its global rounding is a binary (i.e.,{0, 1}-valued) vector α ∈ {0, 1} such that | ∑ v∈F (a(v)−α(v))| < 1 holds for each F ∈ F . We study geometric (or combinatorial) structure of the set of global roundings of a using the notion of compatible set with respect to the discrepancy distance. We conjecture that the set of global r...
