On generalized Berwald manifolds: extremal compatible linear connections, special metrics and low dimensional spaces [PDF]
AUT Journal of Mathematics and Computing, 2021 The notion of generalized Berwald manifolds goes back to V. Wagner [60]. They are Finsler manifolds admitting linear connections on the base manifold such that the parallel transports preserve the Finslerian length of tangent vectors (compatibility ...

Stability design of structures with semi-rigid connections [PDF]
Facta Universitatis. Series: Architecture and Civil Engineering, 2010 The paper points out to the differences of the First order theory and Second order theory and of the significance in practical calculations. The paper presents theoretical foundations and expressions of calculations of impacts on the stability of ...

A note on the Hamiltonian structure of transgression forms
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 By incorporating two gauge connections, transgression forms provide a generalization of Chern-Simons actions that are genuinely gauge-invariant on bounded manifolds.

A generalized 4d Chern-Simons theory
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 A generalization of the 4d Chern-Simons theory action introduced by Costello and Yamazaki is presented. We apply general arguments from symplectic geometry concerning the Hamiltonian action of a symmetry group on the space of gauge connections defined on

David Loye, Thank You for “Telling The New Story”
Interdisciplinary Journal of Partnership Studies, 2022 This is an account of a creative hero, whom we shall dearly miss; a scholar, activist, scientist, writer, and creative spirit, who heard the call and took the risks to offer a truth that was eclipsed for 100 years, i.e., “Darwin’s Lost Theory.” This ...

Information geometry in quantum field theory: lessons from simple examples
SciPost Physics, 2020 Motivated by the increasing connections between information theory and high-energy physics, particularly in the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence, we explore the information geometry associated to a variety of simple systems. By studying their Fisher

Theory of teaching: good traditions, old traps, new perspectives. [PDF]
Studia z Teorii Wychowania, 2021 The article is an attempt to diagnose the condition of the Polish theory of teaching in a temporal perspective. The starting point is the identification of three main strengths of the interwar theory of teaching: the interdisciplinarity of analyses ...

Connection theory on differentiable fibre bundles: A concise introduction
International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2006 The paper contains a partial review on the general connection theory on differentiable fibre bundles. Particular attention is paid on (linear) connections on vector bundles.
