We suggest a so-called Dirac type tensor equation with nonabelian gauge symmetry on pseudo-Riemannian space. This equation reproduce some of the properties of spinor Dirac equation. A geometrical interpretation of results in terms of…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for Riemannian maps to be biharmonic. We also define pseudo umbilical Riemannian maps as a generalization of pseudo-umbilical submanifolds and show that such Riemannian maps put some restrictions…

The comparison theory for the Riccati equation satisfied by the shape operator of parallel hypersurfaces is generalized to semi-Riemannian manifolds of arbitrary index, using one-sided bounds on the Riemann tensor which in the Riemannian…

Two-dimensional almost-Riemannian structures are generalized Riemannian structures on surfaces for which a local orthonormal frame is given by a Lie bracket generating pair of vector fields that can become collinear. We consider the…

One of effective ways to solve the equivalence problem and describe moduli spaces for real submanifolds in complex space is the normal form approach. In this survey, we outline some normal form constructions in CR-geometry and formulate a…

We study several classes of Riemannian manifolds which are defined by imposing a certain condition on the Ricci tensor. We consider the following cases: Ricci recurrent, Cotton, quasi Einstein and pseudo Ricci symmetric condition. Such…

We explicitly describe the length minimizing geodesics for a sub-Riemannian structure of the elliptic type defined on $SL(2, \mathbb{R})$. Our method uses a symmetry reduction which translates the problem into a Riemannian problem on a two…

We prove that Riemannian metrics with an absolute Ricci curvature bound and a conjugate radius bound can be smoothed to having a sectional curvature bound. Using this we derive a number of results about structures of manifolds with Ricci…

We introduce a special class of nilpotent Lie groups of step 2, that generalizes the so called $H$(eisenberg)-type groups, defined by A. Kaplan in 1980. We change the presence of inner product to an arbitrary scalar product and relate the…

Pseudo-harmonic morphisms give rise on the domain space to a distribution which admits an almost complex structure compatible with the given Riemannian metric. We shall show that this property, together with the harmonicity, are preserved…
