Object of study are para-Ricci-like solitons on para-Sasaki-like almost paracontact almost paracomplex Riemannian manifolds, briefly, Riemannian $\Pi$-manifolds. Different cases when the potential of the soliton is the Reeb vector field or…

We show that a 7-dimensional non-compact Ricci-flat Riemannian manifold with Riemannian holonomy G_2 can admit non-integrable G_2 structures of type R + S^2_0(R^7) + R^7 in the sense of Fern\'andez and Gray. This relies on the construction…

Semi-Riemannian manifolds that satisfy (homogeneous) linear differential conditions of arbitrary order on the curvature are analyzed. They include, in particular, the spaces with (higher-order) recurrent curvature, (higher-order) symmetric…

In the absence of a de Rham decomposition theorem for geometries with torsion, we develop and unify ways to view a geometry with parallel skew torsion as the total space of a locally defined, not necessarily unique Riemannian submersion…

We construct arithmetic Kleinian groups that are profinitely rigid in the absolute sense: each is distinguished from all other finitely generated, residually finite groups by its set of finite quotients. The Bianchi group…

(This is a revised version of the paper) - In the present paper we study the geometry of doubly extended Lie groups with their natural biinvariant metric. We describe the curvature, the holonomy and the space of parallel spinors. This is…

We investigate left-invariant Hitchin and hypo flows on $5$-, $6$- and $7$-dimensional Lie groups. They provide Riemannian cohomogeneity-one manifolds of one dimension higher with holonomy contained in $SU(3)$, $G_2$ and $Spin(7)$,…

The question whether a Riemannian manifold is geodesically connected can be studied from geometrical as well as variational methods, and accurate results can be obtained by using the associated distance and related properties of the…

In this paper, we give a method to construct holonomy matrices of hyperbolic 3-manifolds by extending the known method of hyperbolic 2-manifolds. It enables us to consider hyperbolic 3-manifolds with nontrivial holonomies. We apply our…

The Riemannian product $\mathbb M_1(c_1) \times \mathbb M_2(c_2)$, where $\mathbb M_i(c_i)$ denotes the $2$-dimensional space form of constant sectional curvature $c_i \in \mathbb R$, has two different Spin$^c$ structures carrying each a…

This is a survey paper. We explain the known constructions for two geometrically different classes of examples of compact Riemannian 7-manifolds with holonomy G2. One method uses resolutions of singularities of appropriately chosen…

We discuss a gap in Besse's book, recently pointed out by Merton, which concerns the classification of Riemannian manifolds admitting a Codazzi tensors with exactly two distinct eigenvalues. For such manifolds, we prove a structure theorem,…

We introduce a notion of twisted pure spinor in order to characterize, in a unified way, all the special Riemannian holonomy groups just as a classical pure spinor characterizes the special K\"ahler holonomy. Motivated by certain curvature…

We study the homology of Riemannian manifolds of finite volume that are covered by an $r$-fold product $(\mathbb{H}^2)^r = \mathbb{H}^2 \times \ldots \times \mathbb{H}^2$ of hyperbolic planes. Using a variation of a method developed by…

Killing forms on Riemannian manifolds are differential forms whose covariant derivative is totally skew-symmetric. We show that on a compact manifold with holonomy G2 or Spin7 any Killing form has to be parallel. The main tool is a…

We study the global geometry of surfaces in Sasakian space forms whose mean curvature vector is parallel in the normal bundle (these include the Riemannian Heisenberg space of dimension $2n+1$). We prove a codimension reduction theorem. We…
