Equivalence between the Lovelock–Cartan action and a constrained gauge theory
We show that the four-dimensional Lovelock–Cartan action can be derived from a massless gauge theory for the SO(1, 3) group with an additional BRST trivial part.

Isometric immersions into three‐dimensional unimodular metric Lie groups
Abstract We study isometric immersions of surfaces into simply connected three‐dimensional unimodular Lie groups endowed with either Riemannian or Lorentzian left‐invariant metrics, assuming that Milnor's operator is diagonalizable in the Lorentzian case.

Interpolation categories for conformal embeddings
Abstract In this paper, we give a diagrammatic description of the categories of modules coming from the conformal embeddings V(slN,N)⊂V(soN2−1,1)$\mathcal{V}({\mathfrak{sl}}_{N},N)\subset \mathcal{V}({\mathfrak{so}}_{{N}^{2}-1},1)$. A small variant of this construction (morally corresponding to a conformal embedding of glN${\mathfrak{gl}}_{N}$ level N ...

Free semigroups of large critical exponent
Abstract For a convergence group equipped with an expanding coarse‐cocycle, we construct finitely generated free subsemigroups, which we call Bishop−−Jonessemigroups$\textit{Bishop--Jones semigroups}$, of critical exponent arbitrarily close to but strictly less than the critical exponent of the ambient group.

Local Deformable 3D Reconstruction with Cartan's Connections
3D reconstruction of deformable objects using inter-image visual motion from monocular images has been studied under Shape-from-Template (SfT) and Non-Rigid Structure-from-Motion (NRSfM). Most methods have been developed for simple deformation models, primarily isometry. They may treat a surface as a discrete set of points and draw constraints from the

Natural and Projectively Equivariant Quantizations by means of Cartan Connections [PDF]
The existence of a natural and projectively equivariant quantization in the sense of Lecomte [20] was proved recently by M. Bordemann [4], using the framework of Thomas-Whitehead connections. We give a new proof of existence using the notion of Cartan projective connections and we obtain an explicit formula in terms of these connections.

Surface subgroups for cocompact lattices of isometries of H2n$\mathbb {H}^{2n}$
Abstract We prove the existence of surface subgroups within any cocompact lattice Γ$\Gamma$ in SO(2n,1)$\mathrm{SO}(2n,1)$ for n⩾2$n\geqslant 2$. This result addresses the cases missing from the work of Hamenstädt in 2015, who constructed surface subgroups in cocompact lattices for all other rank‐1 simple Lie groups of noncompact type.

Symmetric Space Cartan Connections and Gravity in Three and Four Dimensions
Einstein gravity in both 3 and 4 dimensions, as well as some interesting generalizations, can be written as gauge theories in which the connection is a Cartan connection for geometry modeled on a symmetric space.

The Grassmann-like manifold of centered planes when a surface is described by the centre
We continue to study of the Grassmann-like manifold of -centered planes. A special case is considered when the center describes an -dimensional surface . We will denote this manifold by . An analogue of the strong Norden normalization of the manifold

Simple homotopy theory for Fukaya categories
Abstract We develop a categorical framework for simple homotopy theory in Fukaya categories, based on the fundamental group of the ambient symplectic manifold. When the first Chern class vanishes, we show that any isomorphism in the Fukaya category of a Weinstein manifold has trivial Whitehead torsion.
