A b-symplectic slice theorem

Anna Kiesenhofer

In this article, motivated by the study of symplectic structures on manifolds with boundary and the systematic study of b-symplectic manifolds started in Guillemin, Miranda, and Pires Adv. Math. 264 (2014), 864-896, we prove a slice theorem for Lie group a ...

The geometry of algorithms using hierarchical tensors

André Uschmajew

In this paper, the differential geometry of the novel hierarchical Tucker format for tensors is derived. The set HT,k of tensors with fixed tree T and hierarchical rank k is shown to be a smooth quotient manifold, namely the set of orbits of a Lie group ac ...

Dirac Optimal Reduction

Tudor Ratiu, Madeleine Jotz

The purpose of this paper is to generalize the (Poisson) Optimal Reduction Theorem in Ortega and Ratiu [Momentum Maps and Hamiltonian Reduction. Progress in Mathematics 222. Boston, MA: Birkhauser. xxxiv, 497pp., 2004] to general proper Lie group actions o ...

Invariant frames for vector bundles and applications

Tudor Ratiu, Madeleine Jotz

This paper completes a proof of the Dirac reduction theorem by involutive tangent subbundles. As a consequence, Dirac reduction by a proper Lie group action having one isotropy type is carried out. The main technical tool in the proof is the notion of part ...

The Leaf Space Of A Multiplicative Foliation

Madeleine Jotz

We show that if a smooth multiplicative subbundle S subset of T G on a groupoid G P is involutive and satisfies completeness conditions, then its leaf space G/S inherits a groupoid structure over the space of leaves of TP boolean AND S in P. As an applicat ...

On Singular Poisson Sternberg Spaces

We obtain a theory of stratified Sternberg spaces thereby extending the theory of cotangent bundle reduction for free actions to the singular case where the action on the base manifold consists of only one orbit type. We find that the symplectic reduced sp ...

The symplectic normal space of a cotangent-lifted action

For the cotangent bundle T*Q of a smooth Riemannian manifold acted upon by the lift of a smooth and proper action by isometries of a Lie group, we characterize the symplectic normal space at any point. We show that this space splits as the direct sum of th ...

Some applications of symmetries in differential geometry and dynamical systems

Oana Mihaela Dragulete

This thesis deals with applications of Lie symmetries in differential geometry and dynamical systems. The first chapter of the thesis studies the singular reduction of symmetries of cosphere bundles, the conservation properties of contact systems and their ...
