Existence and uniqueness of solutions to superdifferential equations
1993
Abstract We state and prove the theorem of existence and uniqueness of solutions to ordinary superdifferential equations on supermanifolds. It is shown that any supervector field, X = X0 + X1, has a unique integral flow, Г: R 1¦1 x (M, AM) → (M, AM), satisfying a given initial condition. A necessary and sufficient condition for this integral flow to yield an R 1¦1-action is obtained: the homogeneous components, X0, and, X1, of the given field must define a Lie superalgebra of dimension (1, 1). The supergroup structure on R 1¦1, however, has to be specified: there are three non-isomorphic Lie supergroup structures on R 1¦1, all of which have addition as the group operation in the underlying …
Lie algebra on the transverse bundle of a decreasing family of foliations
2010
Abstract J. Lehmann-Lejeune in [J. Lehmann-Lejeune, Cohomologies sur le fibre transverse a un feuilletage, C.R.A.S. Paris 295 (1982), 495–498] defined on the transverse bundle V to a foliation on a manifold M, a zero-deformable structure J such that J 2 = 0 and for every pair of vector fields X , Y on M: [ J X , J Y ] − J [ J X , Y ] − J [ X , J Y ] + J 2 [ X , Y ] = 0 . For every open set Ω of V, J. Lehmann-Lejeune studied the Lie Algebra L J ( Ω ) of vector fields X defined on Ω such that the Lie derivative L ( X ) J is equal to zero i.e., for each vector field Y on Ω : [ X , J Y ] = J [ X , Y ] and showed that for every vector field X on Ω such that X ∈ K e r J , we can write X = ∑ [ Y ,…
Poisson-Nijenhuis structures and the Vinogradov bracket
1994
We express the compatibility conditions that a Poisson bivector and a Nijenhuis tensor must fulfil in order to be a Poisson-Nijenhuis structure by means of a graded Lie bracket. This bracket is a generalization of Schouten and Frolicher-Nijenhuis graded Lie brackets defined on multivector fields and on vector valued differential forms respectively.
