Resurgence of Chern-Simons Theory at the Trivial Flat Connection. [PDF]
Abstract Some years ago, it was conjectured by the first author that the Chern–Simons perturbation theory of a 3-manifold at the trivial flat connection is a resurgent power series. We describe completely the resurgent structure of the above series (including the location of the singularities and their Stokes constants) in the case of a ...

Connections on Lie groupoids and Chern–Weil theory [PDF]
Let [Formula: see text] be a Lie groupoid equipped with a connection, given by a smooth distribution [Formula: see text] transversal to the fibers of the source map. Under the assumption that the distribution [Formula: see text] is integrable, we define a version of de Rham cohomology for the pair [Formula: see text], and we study connections on ...

Connection between the winding number and the Chern number [PDF]
Bulk-edge correspondence is one of the most distinct properties of topological insulators. In particular, the 1D winding number $\n$ has a one-to-one correspondence to the number of edge states in a chain of topological insulators with boundaries. By properly choosing the unit cells, we carry out numerical calculation to show explicitly in the extended

On Hermitian manifolds whose Chern connection is Ambrose-Singer
We consider the class of compact Hermitian manifolds whose Chern connection is Ambrose-Singer, namely, it has parallel torsion and curvature. We prove structure theorems for such manifolds.

Symplectic Connections Induced by the Chern Connection
Let $(M, )$ be a symplectic manifold and $F$ be a Finsler structure on $M$. In the present paper we define a lift of the symplectic two-form $ $ on the manifold $TM\backslash 0$, and find the conditions that the Chern connection of the Finsler structure $F$ preserves this lift of $ $.

Strong connections and the relative Chern-Galois character for corings
The Chern-Galois theory is developed for corings or coalgebras over non-commutative rings. As the first step the notion of an entwined extension as an extension of algebras within a bijective entwining structure over a non-commutative ring is introduced.
