Torsion-free Connections with prescribed Curvature

Differential Geometry 2024-06-04 v1

Abstract

We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for a curvature map S ⁣:UK(g)S\colon U\longrightarrow K(\mathfrak{g}) to arise from the curvature tensor of a torsion-free connection on a sufficiently small UUU'\subset U by using a suitable power series approach. This torsion-free connection is uniquely given. The curvature map SS is used to effectively compute the holonomy of this connection.
