Differential graded Lie groups and their differential graded Lie algebras

In this paper we discuss the question of integrating differential graded Lie algebras (DGLA) to differential graded Lie groups (DGLG). We first recall the classical problem of integration in the context, and present the construction for (non-graded) differential Lie algebras. Then, we define the category of differential graded Lie groups and study its properties. We show how to associate a differential graded Lie algebra to every differential graded Lie group and vice-versa. For the DGLA $\to$ DGLG direction, the main ``tools'' are graded Hopf algebras and Harish-Chandra pairs (HCP) -- we define the category of graded and differential graded HCPs and explain how those are related to the desired construction. We describe some near at hand examples and mention possible generalizations.

On the magnitude homology of metric spaces

Magnitude homology of enriched categories, and in particular of metric spaces, was recently introduced by T. Leinster and M. Shulman. In this article, we prove that metric spaces satisfying a reasonably mild condition have vanishing magnitude homology groups in nonzero degrees.

A microlocal characterization of Lipschitz continuity

We study continuous maps between differential manifolds from a microlocal point of view. In particular, we characterize the Lipschitz continuity of these maps in terms of the microsupport of the constant sheaf on their graph. Furthermore, we give lower and upper bounds on the microsupport of the graph of a continuous map and use these bounds to characterize strict differentiability in microlocal terms.

Sheaves and D-modules on Lorentzian manifolds

We introduce a class of causal manifolds which contains the globally hyperbolic spacetimes and we prove global propagation theorems for sheaves on such manifolds. As an application, we solve globally the Cauchy problem for hyperfunction solutions of hyperbolic systems.

The Free Courant Algebroid

We introduce the category of generalized Courant algebroids and show that it admits a free object on any anchored vector bundle. The free Courant algebroid is built from two components: the generalized Courant algebroid associated to a symmetric Leibniz algebroid and the free symmetric Leibniz algebroid on an anchored vector bundle. Our construction is thus based on the new concept of symmetric Leibniz algebroid. We compare this subclass of Leibniz algebroids with the subclass of Loday algebroids that was introduced and studied in a previous paper of Grabowski, Khudaverdyan and Poncin.
