There are completely described all \(\mathcal{VB}_{m,n}\)-gauge-natural operators \(C\) which, like to the Dorfman-Courant bracket, send closed linear \(3\)-forms \(H\in\Gamma^{l-\rm{clos}}_E(\bigwedge^3T^*E)\) on a smooth (\(\mathcal{C}^{\infty}\)) vector bundle \(E\) into \(\mathbf{R}\)-bilinear operators \[C_H:\Gamma^l_E(TE\oplus T^*E)\times \Gamma^l_E(TE\oplus T^*E)\to \Gamma^l_E(TE\oplus T^*E)\] transforming pairs of linear sections of \(TE\oplus T^*E\to E\) into linear sections of \(TE\oplus T^*E\to E\). Then all such \(C\) which also, like to the twisted Dorfman-Courant bracket, satisfy both some "restricted" condition and the Jacobi identity in Leibniz form are extracted.

All \(\mathcal{VB}_{m,n}\)-gauge-natural operators \(C\) sending linear \(3\)-forms \(H \in \Gamma^{l}_E(\bigwedge^3T^*E)\) on a smooth (\(\mathcal{C}^\infty\)) vector bundle \(E\) into \(\mathbf{R}\)-bilinear operators \[C_H:\Gamma^l_E(TE \oplus T^*E)\times \Gamma^l_E(TE \oplus T^*E)\to \Gamma^l_E(TE \oplus T^*E)\] transforming pairs of linear sections of \(TE \oplus T^*E \to E\) into linear sections of \( TE \oplus T^*E \to E\) are completely described. The complete descriptions is given of all generalized twisted Dorfman-Courant brackets \(C\) (i.e. \(C\) as above such that \(C_0\) is the Dorfman-Courant bracket) satisfying the Jacobi identity for closed linear \(3\)-forms \(H\). An interesting natural characterization of the (usual) twisted Dorfman-Courant bracket is presented.

Abstract Let 𝓔 k denote the set of diffeomorphism classes of closed connected smooth k-manifolds X with the property that for any oriented vector bundle α over X, the Euler class e(α) = 0. We show that if X ∈ 𝓔2n+1 is orientable, then X is a rational homology sphere and π 1(X) is perfect. We also show that 𝓔8 = ∅ and derive additional cohomlogical restrictions on orientable manifolds in 𝓔 k .

Principal Bundles

AbstractFor a 2-category 2C we associate a notion of a principal 2C-bundle. For the 2-category of 2-vector spaces, in the sense of M.M. Kapranov and V.A. Voevodsky, this gives the 2-vector bundles of N.A. Baas, B.I. Dundas and J. Rognes. Our main result says that the geometric nerve of a good 2-category is a classifying space for the associated principal 2-bundles. In the process of proving this we develop powerful machinery which may be useful in further studies of 2-categorical topology. As a corollary we get a new proof of the classification of principal bundles. Another 2-category of 2-vector spaces has been proposed by J.C. Baez and A.S. Crans. A calculation using our main theorem shows that in this case the theory of principal 2-bundles splits, up to concordance, as two copies of ordinary vector bundle theory. When 2C is a cobordism type 2-category we get a new notion of cobordism-bundles which turns out to be classified by the Madsen–Weiss spaces.
