We explore the natural analogues of the Brylinski condition, strong Lefschetz condition, and dδ-lemma in symplectic geometry originally explored by Brylinski, Mathieu, Yan, and Guillemin to the symplectic Lie algebroid case. The equivalence of the three conditions is re-established as a purely algebraic statement along with a primitive notion of the dδ-lemma shown established by Tseng, Yau, and Ho. We then show that the natural analogues of these in the Lie algebroid setting holds as well with examples given.

In this paper, we prove a rigidity result for three-dimensional Riemannian manifolds with boundary, under the assumption that a free boundary strictly stable minimal surface, which locally maximizes the modified Hawking mass, is embedded in a three-dimensional Riemannian manifold with negative scalar curvature and mean convex boundary. First, we establish area estimates for free boundary strictly stable minimal surfaces. Then, we show a rigidity theorem for a three-dimensional Riemannian manifold with boundary. In particular, if a free boundary surface is minimal two-disk, then the three-dimensional Riemannian manifold is locally isometric to the half anti-de Sitter-Schwarzschild manifold.

如果M是一个封闭流形,K是M的一个光滑三角剖分,Whitney证明了所有的Stiefel-Whitney类都被指定为对偶单元复合体(K ')上的协链,对每个对偶单元赋值1 mod 2。我们为(M,K)对提供一个任意的黎曼度量g,并使用惠特尼准则来证明存在所有Stiefel-Whitney类w1(M),…,wn(M)的关联代表。w1(M)的代表由det (gij)决定,gij是在每个双1单元局部定义的帧中计算的;偶类w2k(M)的代表由局部定义的完全测地取向2k流形的chen - gauss - bonnet密度2k形式确定,其边界与每个对偶2k单元相关联;奇数类w2k+1(M)的代表由一个局部定义的完全测地取向(2k+1)流形的边界球的超表面积形式决定,其边界与每个对偶(2k+1)-单元相关联。如果(M,J,g)是厄密的,我们证明了由此得到的w2k(M)的度规代表是由系数同态导出的第k个陈氏类ck(M,J)的Z/2约简,并且由此得到的任何奇次类w2k+1(M)的度规代表在上同调上是平凡的。

We characterize a class of 1-dimensional dually flat manifolds that are toric in the sense of [21]. This class consists of manifolds whose torifications possess a high degree of symmetry and satisfy specific geometric and analytic properties common in information geometry. We show that these torifications correspond precisely to the complex space forms. The case where the manifold is an exponential family defined over a finite set is considered.

In this paper, we study two different kinds of scalar curvature in Finsler geometry, which are defined by two different kinds of Ricci curvature tensor. For Kropina metrics, we show that they are equivalent among weakly isotropic scalar curvature, isotropic scalar curvature, weakly isotropic Ricci curvature tensor, weakly isotropic Ricci curvature, isotropic Ricci curvature tensor and isotropic Ricci curvature.

We define the notion of basic section of an -groupoid whose core-anchor map is injective. Such a notion turns out to be Morita invariant, so that it provides a simpler model for the sections of the stacky Lie algebroids presented by such -groupoids, yet equivalent to the well-known model provided by their multiplicative sections.

We give the first concrete example of a symplectic capacity that is not target-representable. The capacity is defined on the class of all compact and exact symplectic manifolds. This provides some concrete answer to a question by Cieliebak, Hofer, Latschev, and Schlenk.
We also show that a capacity on the class of all closed symplectic manifolds is not target-representable, if it is finite at certain symplectic manifolds. In particular, the Hofer-Zehnder capacity on the class of all closed symplectic manifolds is not target-representable.
