Geodesics on a supermanifold and projective equivalence of super connections [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We investigate the concept of projective equivalence of connections in supergeometry. To this aim, we propose a definition for (super) geodesics on a supermanifold in which, as in the classical case, they are the projections of the integral curves of a ...

Benenti Tensors: A useful tool in Projective Differential Geometry

open access: yesComplex Manifolds, 2018
Two metrics are said to be projectively equivalent if they share the same geodesics (viewed as unparametrized curves). The degree of mobility of a metric g is the dimension of the space of the metrics projectively equivalent to g. For any pair of metrics

Delusion disorder: Neuropsychological aspects [PDF]

open access: yesPsihologija, 2004
Previous studies concerned with neuropsychological aspect of delusions, were mainly focused on specific forms of this disorder. Comparatively small number of investigations were concerned with cognitive deficiencies accompanying the delusions.

On real projective connections, V.I. Smirnov's approach, and black hole type solutions of the Liouville equation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We consider real projective connections on Riemann surfaces and corresponding solutions of the Liouville equation. It is shown that these solutions have singularities of special type (of a black hole type) on a finite number of simple analytical contours.

Lifting Dual Connections with the Riemann Extension

open access: yesMathematics, 2020
Let (M,g) be a Riemannian manifold equipped with a pair of dual connections (∇,∇*). Such a structure is known as a statistical manifold since it was defined in the context of information geometry.

Higher-spin self-dual Yang-Mills and gravity from the twistor space

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2023
We lift the recently proposed theories of higher-spin self-dual Yang-Mills (SDYM) and gravity (SDGR) to the twistor space. We find that the most natural room for their twistor formulation is not in the projective, but in the full twistor space, which is ...

Inflation from dynamical projective connections

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2022
We show how the recently developed string-inspired, projectively-invariant gravitational model Thomas-Whitehead gravity (TW gravity) naturally gives rise to a field acting as the inflaton. In the formulation of TW gravity, a field $\mathcal{D}_{ab}$ is introduced into the projective connection components and is related to a rank-two tensor field ...

Keldysh nonlinear sigma model for a free-fermion gas under continuous measurements

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2023
Quantum entanglement phase transitions have provided new insights into quantum many-body dynamics. Both disorders and measurements are found to induce similar entanglement transitions.

Logarithmic Projective Connections

open access: yesTokyo Journal of Mathematics, 1993
Let \(X\) be a complex manifold of dimension \(n \geq 2\) and \(D\) a reduced effective divisor with only normal crossing singularities. Then, via a suitable locally finite open covering of \(X\), the divisor \(D\) is locally defined by equations \(z_ 1\dots z_ n = 0\), and such a local coordinate system is called a logarithmic coordinate system along \

(Super-)integrable systems associated to 2-dimensional projective connections with one projective symmetry

open access: yes, 2019
Projective connections arise from equivalence classes of affine connections under the reparametrization of geodesics. They may also be viewed as quotient systems of the classical geodesic equation.
