Abstract

We construct an infinite dimensional Lie rackoid Y which hosts an integration of the standard Courant algebroid. As a set, Y = C $\infty$ ([0, 1], T * M) for a compact manifold M. The rackoid product is by automorphisms of the Dorfman bracket. The first part of the article is a study of the Lie rackoid Y and its tangent Leibniz algebroid a quotient of which is the standard Courant algebroid. In a second part, we study the equivalence relation related to the quotient on the rackoid level and restrict then to an integrable Dirac structure. We show how our integrating object contains the corresponding integrating Weinstein Lie groupoid in the case where the Dirac structure is given by a Poisson structure.

Borsuk-Ulam type theorem for Stiefel manifolds and orthogonal mass partitions

We prove a Borsuk--Ulam-type zero theorem for the Stiefel manifold $V_{n,k}$ with the free action of the hyperoctahedral group $B_k=(\mathbb{Z}/2)^k\rtimes S_k$. The theorem gives a nonvanishing criterion for explicit polynomials in ${R}_{n,k}=\mathbb{F}_2[a_1,\ldots,a_k]/(a_1^n,a_2^{n-1},\ldots,a_k^{n-k+1})$. We apply this criterion to equipartitions by mutually orthogonal hyperplanes. If $(P_{k,n})^m\ne0$ in ${R}_{d,k}=\mathbb{F}_2[a_1,\ldots,a_k]/(a_1^{d+1},a_2^d,\ldots,a_k^{d-k+2})$, then any $m$ finite Borel measures in $\mathbb{R}^d$ that vanish on affine hyperplanes admit $k$ mutually orthogonal hyperplanes such that every $n$-element subfamily divides each measure into $2^n$ equal parts. For the least possible dimension $Δ^*(m,k,n)$, we obtain general lower bounds and prove upper bounds in several cases. These give exact values, including $Δ^*(2^j-1,k,2)=2^{j-1}(k+1)-1$ for all $j\ge1$ and $k\ge2$. In the case $n=k$, the upper bound of Mani-Levitska, Vrećica, and Zivaljević [18], originally obtained without an orthogonality requirement, remains valid under the stronger requirement that all $k$ hyperplanes be mutually orthogonal.

Algebraically and geometrically minimal DG-models of diagrams of spaces

We extend Sullivan's rational homotopy theory by constructing geometrically and algebraically minimal models for diagrams of simply connected spaces over a class of finite indexing categories. Both classes classify rational diagram homotopy types, but their minimality conditions can differ. We also show that, in contrast to classical rational homotopy theory, H-diagrams need not split into products of Eilenberg--MacLane diagrams, and characterize the indexing categories for which every H-diagram admits such a splitting. Also we apply this to computation of automorphism groups of rational homotopy types of certain diagrams of spaces.
