Symmetric Killing tensors on almost abelian Lie groups

Differential Geometry 2025-10-01 v1

Abstract

In this work we provide a complete characterization of left-invariant symmetric Killing tensors on almost abelian Lie groups endowed with a left-invariant Riemannian metric. We show in particular that all such tensors are decomposable, in the sense that they can be expressed as a polynomial in the Killing vector fields and the Riemannian metric.
