In this paper, we show the relationship between 2-form of the two projective tangent bundle and the relationship between 2-form on projective tangent bundle and 1-form on by using the theory of fiber bundle and the properties of symplectic manifold of the projective tangent bundle . Moreover, we derived a simpler formula of Lie derivative of a special vector field, which is on the projective tangent bundle.

In this paper we extend the standard Moyal formalism to the tangent and cotangent bundle of the phase-space of any Hamiltonian mechanical system. In this manner we build the quantum analog of the classical Hamiltonian vector-field of time evolution and its associated Lie-derivative. We also use this extended Moyal formalism to develop a quantum analog of the Cartan calculus on symplectic manifolds.

In the present paper, we introduce a new class of natural metrics on the tangent bundle $TM$ of the Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ denoted by $G^{f,h}$ which is named a twisted Sasakian metric. A necessary and sufficient conditions under which a vector field is harmonic with respect to the twisted Sasakian metric are established. Some examples of harmonic vector fields are presented as well.

For more than 30 years James Gibson studied pictures and he studied motion, particularly the relationship between movement through an environment and its visual consequences. For the latter, he also struggled with how best to present his ideas to students and fellow researchers, and employed various representations and formats. This article explores the relationships between the concepts of the fidelity of pictures (an idea he first promoted and later eschewed) and evocativeness as applied to his images. Gibson ended his struggle with an image of a bird flying over a plane surrounded by a spherical representation of a vector field, an image high in evocativeness but less than completely faithful to optical flow.

We prove a convexity theorem for the image of the moment map of a Hamiltonian torus action on a b m -symplectic manifold. This article is part of the theme issue ‘Finite dimensional integrable systems: new trends and methods’.

Abstract We prove that any noncompact symplectic manifold that admits a properly embedded ray with a wide neighborhood is symplectomorphic to the complement of the ray by constructing an explicit symplectomorphism in the case of the standard Euclidean space. This allows us to excide a ray from a symplectic manifold and we use this excision trick to find a nowhere vanishing Liouville vector field on every cotangent bundle.

In this paper we will provide a new operatorial counterpart of the path-integral formalism of classical mechanics developed in recent years. We call it new because the Jacobi fields and forms will be realized via finite dimensional matrices. As a byproduct of this we will prove that all the operations of the Cartan calculus, such as the exterior derivative, the interior contraction with a vector field, the Lie derivative and so on, can be realized by means of suitable tensor products of Pauli and identity matrices.

A Kenmotsu manifold with a given N-connection is considered. From the integrability of the distribution of a Kenmotsu manifold it follows that the N-connection belongs to the class of the quarter-symmetric connections. Among the N-connections, the class of connections adapted to the structure of the Kenmotsu manifold is specified. In particular, it is proved that an N-connection preserves the structure endomorphism φ of the Kenmotsu manifold if and only if the endomorphisms N and φ commute. A formula expressing the N-connection in terms of the Levi-Civita connection is obtained. The Chrystoffel symbols of the Levi-Civita connection and of the N-connection of the Kenmotsu manifold with respect to the adapted coordinates are computed. The properties of the invariants of the interior geometry of the Kenmotsu manifolds are investigated. The invariants of the interior geometry are the following: the Schouten curvature tensor; the 1-form  defining the distribution D; the Lie derivative 0   L g of the metric tensor g along the vector field ;  the tensor field P with the components given with respect to the adapted coordinate system by the formula Pacd  ncad . The field P is called in the work the Schouten — Wagner tensor. It is proved that the Schouten — Wagner tensor of the interior connection of the Kenmotsu manifold is zero. The conditions that satisfies the endomorphism N defining the metric N-connection are found. At the end of the work, an example of a Kenmotsu manifold with a metric N-connection preserving the structure endomorphism φ is given.

Let (M,ω) be a compact symplectic manifold, and ϕ be a symplectic diffeomorphism on M, we define a Floer-type homology FH*(ϕ) which is a generalization of Floer homology for symplectic fixed points defined by Dostoglou and Salamon for monotone symplectic manifolds. These homology groups are modules over a suitable Novikov ring and depend only on ϕ up to a Hamiltonian isotopy.

A geodesic γ on the unit tangent sphere bundle T1M of a Riemannian manifold (M, g), equipped with the Sasaki metric gS, can be considered as a curve x on M together with a unit vector field V along it. We study the curves x. In particular, we investigate for which manifolds (M, g) all these curves have constant first curvature κ1 or have vanishing curvature κi for some i = 1, 2 or 3.

Professor Vicente Muñoz kindly informed us that there is an inaccuracy in Lemma 3.5 of [1]. The correct statement of Lemma 3.5 is now that the fundamental group π1(X′) of the manifold X′ is Z, since the monodromy coming from φ8 does not imply that g4 = g4−1. Therefore, what we have actually constructed in Section 3 of [1] is a closed non-formal 8-dimensional symplectic manifold with π1 = Z whose triple Massey product is non-zero, so that the simply-connectedness in Theorem 1.1 should be dropped. As far as we know, the existence of a simply connected closed non-formal 8-dimensional symplectic manifold whose triple Massey product is non-zero still remains an open question. All other main results, especially Theorem 1.2 and Corollary 1.3, in [1] are not affected by this mistake. Furthermore, the stability of the non-formality under a finite covering as in Subsection 3.3 holds in general. We want to thank Professor Muñoz for his careful reading.
