Bundle geometry of the connection space, covariant Hamiltonian formalism, the problem of boundaries in gauge theories, and the dressing field method

We take advantage of the principal bundle geometry of the space of connections to obtain general results on the presymplectic structure of two classes of (pure) gauge theories: invariant theories, and non-invariant theories satisfying two restricting hypothesis. In particular, we derive the general field-dependent gauge transformations of the presymplectic potential and presymplectic 2-form in both cases. We point-out that a generalisation of the standard bundle geometry, called twisted geometry, arises naturally in the study of non-invariant gauge theories (e.g. non-Abelian Chern-Simons theory). These results prove that the well-known problem of associating a symplectic structure to a gauge theory over bounded regions is a generic feature of both classes. The edge modes strategy, recently introduced to address this issue, has been actively developed in various contexts by several authors. We draw attention to the dressing field method as the geometric framework underpinning, or rather encompassing, this strategy. The geometric insight afforded by the method both clarifies it and clearly delineates its potential shortcomings as well as its conditions of success. Applying our general framework to various examples allows to straightforwardly recover several results of the recent literature on edge modes and on the presymplectic structure of general relativity.

EIGHTY ONE RICCI-TYPE IDENTITIES

In this manuscript, the identities of Ricci Type with respect to a non-symmetric affine connection space are obtained and simplified. The components of commutation formulae are discussed.

Centered planes in the projective connection space

The space of centered planes is considered in the Cartan projec­ti­ve connection space . The space is important because it has con­nec­tion with the Grassmann manifold, which plays an important role in geometry and topology, since it is the basic space of a universal vector bundle. The space is an n-dimensional differentiable manifold with each point of which an n-dimensional projective space containing this point is associated. Thus, the manifold is the base, and the space is the n-dimensional fiber “glued” to the points of the base. A projective space is a quotient space of a linear space with respect to the equivalence (collinearity) of non-zero vectors, that is . The projective space is a manifold of di­men­sion n. In this paper we use the Laptev — Lumiste invariant analytical meth­od of differential geometric studies of the space of centered planes and introduce a fundamental-group connection in the associated bundle . The bundle contains four quotient bundles. It is show that the connection object is a quasi-tensor containing four subquasi-tensors that define connections in the corresponding quotient bundles.

Study on Environmental Regeneration Around Qinglong Temple in Xi'an City

The paper is aimed to avoid the situation that historical relics are encroached, isolated and fragmented because of cities in the rapid urban process. Taking the environment around the Qinglong Temple in Xi'an city as an example and based on the characteristics of urban patterns in the history, this paper explores the spatial connection relationship between historical relics and surrounding villages as well as the connection between metro traffic and commercial bodies. At the end of the paper, the improvement strategy is put forward, namely the design concepts of “stepwise style” and “landscape style”, which can be achieved by the demand of ecological restoration and the relationship between urban axis. To be noted, the research shows, by restructuring new connection space, the city can promote the urban memory to be restored, the urban appearance to be reshaped, and the urban patterns in the history to be respected and displayed.

Curvature tensor of connection in principal bundle of Cartan's projective connection space

We considered Cartan's projective connection space with structure equations generalizing the structure equations of the projective space and the condition of local projectivity (this condition is an analogue to the equiprojectivity condition in the projective space). The curvature-torsion object of the space is a tensor containing three subtensor: torsion tensor, torsion affine curvature tensor, extended torsion tensor. Cartan's projective connection space is not a space with connection of the principal bundle. The assignment of a connection in the adjoint principal bundle leads to a space with a connection. It is proved that the curvature object of the introduced connection is a tensor.

Applications of a Particular Four-Dimensional Projective Geometry to Galactic Dynamics

Relativistic localizing systems that extend relativistic positioning systems show that pseudo-Riemannian space-time geometry is somehow encompassed in a particular four-dimensional projective geometry. The resulting geometric structure is then that of a generalized Cartan space (also called Cartan connection space) with projective connection. The result is that locally non-linear actions of projective groups via homographies systematically induce the existence of a particular space-time foliation independent of any space-time dynamics or solutions of Einstein’s equations for example. In this article, we present the consequences of these projective group actions and this foliation. In particular, it is shown that the particular geometric structure due to this foliation is similar from a certain point of view to that of a black hole but not necessarily based on the existence of singularities. We also present a modified Newton’s laws invariant with respect to the homographic transformations induced by this projective geometry. Consequences on galactic dynamics are discussed and fits of galactic rotational velocity curves based on these modifications which are independent of any Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) or dark matter theories are presented.
