Abstract

In this paper, we start from an extension of the notion of holonomy on diffeological bundles, reformulate the notion of regular Lie group or Fr\"olicher Lie groups, state an Ambrose-Singer theorem that enlarges the one stated in \cite{Ma2}, and conclude with a differential geometric treatment of KP hierarchy. The examples of Lie groups that are studied are principally those obtained by enlarging some graded Fr\"olicher (Lie) algebras such as formal $q-$series of the quantum algebra of pseudo-differential operators. These deformations can be defined for classical pseudo-differential operators but they are used here on formal pseudo-differential operators in order to get a differential geometric framework to deal with the KP hierarchy that is known to be completely integrable in the sense of Frobenius. Here, we get an integration of the Zakharov-Shabat connection form by means of smooth sections of a (differential geometric) bundle with structure group some groups of $q-$deformed operators. The integration obtained by Mulase \cite{M1}, and the key tools he developped, are totally recovered on the germs of the smooth maps of our construction. The tool coming from (classical) differential geometry used in this construction is the holonomy group, on which we have an Ambrose-Singer-like theorem: the Lie algebra is spanned by the curvature elements. This result is proved for any connection a diffeological principal bundle with structure group a regular Fr\"olicher Lie group. The case of a (classical) Lie group modelled on a complete locally convex topological vector space is also recovered and the work developped in \cite{Ma,Ma2} is completed.

The $q$-deformed cross-ratio: modular invariants and Coxeter friezes

We introduce and study a scalar $q$-deformation of the cross-ratio on $\mathbb P^1(\mathbb Q)$. Our construction is based on the notion of $q$-deformed rational numbers due to Morier-Genoud and the author. The $q$-cross-ratio is invariant under $\mathrm{PSL}(2,\mathbb{Z})$, while elements of determinant $-1$ of $\mathrm{PGL}(2,\mathbb{Z})$ act by $q\mapsto q^{-1}$. A principal result is its relation to $q$-deformed Coxeter friezes associated with rational polygons. The expansion at $q=e^h$ yields an algebraically independent sequence of modular invariants and relative invariants, although this sequence does not separate modular orbits. We compute the first two nonconstant coefficients of this expansion explicitly.

The Cartan-Hadamard conjecture in dimension five

We show that the sharp Euclidean isoperimetric inequality holds for domains in complete simply connected Riemannian $5$-manifolds of nonpositive sectional curvature, which establishes the Cartan-Hadamard conjecture in that dimension. The main step is a sharp inequality for constant-mean-curvature hypersurfaces, proved via integrals over pairs of boundary points, in the spirit of Banchoff-Pohl, together with an estimate for Jacobi fields along geodesic chords. The inequality persists for boundaries of isoperimetric regions in geodesic balls, whose mean curvature is constant only on the free part. An isoperimetric-profile argument, after Kleiner, completes the proof. Our method also gives a new proof in dimension $3$.

On static manifolds with boundary admitting a nowhere-vanishing static potential

We study complete static manifolds with boundary admitting a nowhere-vanishing static potential. Our main result shows that, under a natural lower bound relating the scalar curvature and the boundary mean curvature, a simple static manifold with boundary must in fact have positive scalar curvature, negative boundary mean curvature, and be compact; we also obtain explicit relations and estimates involving the volume of the manifold and the geometry of its boundary. In the scalar-flat case, we prove global splitting and Ricci-flat rigidity results, including for disconnected boundary, while in the negative scalar curvature case we establish a sharp mean-curvature bound and characterize the equality case by an exponential warped-product structure. The proofs rely essentially on the study of the associated Einstein manifold. In appendix we derive several identities for static manifolds with boundary and discuss the associated Einstein manifold technique in the boundaryless setting.
