AbstractThis serves as a complement to Junliang Shens talk. l will begin with the classical theory of theBeauville decomposition, which provides a canonical, multiplicative splitting of the Leray filtration forabelian schemes. Then l will discuss the problem of extending the Beauville decomposition tocertain abelian fibrations with singular fibers. l will explain how the extension leads to them...
AbstractWe propose a new, infinite family of tensor fields, whose first representatives are the classical Nijenhuis and Haantjes tensors. We prove that the vanishing of a suitable higher-level Haantjes torsion is a sufficient condition for the integrability of the eigen-distributions of an operator field on a differentiable manifold. This new condition, which does not require the explicit knowl...
