Dennis The, A Cartan-theoretic Perspective on (2,3,5)-distributions
B236-1 IBS, Korea, Republic ofComplex Geometry SeminarSpeaker Dennis The UiT The Arctic University of Norway Generic rank 2 distributions on 5-manifolds, i.e. "(2,3,5)-distributions", are interesting geometric structures arising in the study of non-holonomic systems, underdetermined ODE of Monge type, conformal 5-manifolds with special holonomy, etc. The origins of their study date to Élie Cartan's "5-variables" paper of 1910, where …

Dennis The, On 4D Split-conformal Structures with G2-symmetric Twistor Distribution
B266 IBS, Korea, Republic ofComplex Geometry SeminarSpeaker Dennis The The Artic University of Norway, Tromso In their 2013 article, An & Nurowski considered two surfaces rolling on each other without twisting or slipping, and defined a twistor distribution (on the space of all real totally null self-dual 2-planes) for the associated 4D split-signature conformal structure. If this split-conformal structure …
