This paper discusses the extent to which one can determine the space-time metric from a knowledge of a certain subset of the (unparametrised) geodesics of its Levi-Civita connection, that is, from the experimental evidence of the…
A study is made of 4-dimensional Lorentz manifolds which are projectively related, that is, whose Levi-Civita connections give rise to the same (unparameterised) geodesics. A brief review of some relevant recent work is provided and a list…
Projective metrics on vector spaces over finite fields, introduced by Gabidulin and Simonis in 1997, generalize classical metrics in coding theory like the Hamming metric, rank metric, and combinatorial metrics. While these specific metrics…
In this article, we develop foundational theory for geometries of the space of closed $G_2$-structures in a given cohomology class as an infinite-dimensional manifold. We introduce Sobolev-type metrics, construct their Levi-Civita…
Generalized differential forms are used in discussions of metric geometries and Einstein's vacuum field equations. Cartan's structure equations are generalized and applied. In particular flat generalized connections are associated with any…
We argue that the exponential relation $g_{\mu\nu} = \bar{g}_{\mu\rho}\big(\mathrm{e}^h\big)^\rho{}_\nu$ is the most natural metric parametrization since it describes geodesics that follow from the basic structure of the space of metrics.…
We study noncommutative bundles and Riemannian geometry at the semiclassical level of first order in a deformation parameter $\lambda$, using a functorial approach. The data for quantisation of the cotangent bundle is known to be a Poisson…
We consider the problem of preserving positive Ricci curvature along connected sums. In this context, based on earlier work by Perelman, Burdick introduced the notion of core metrics and showed that the connected sum of manifolds with core…
The object of the present paper is to study invariant submanifolds of (LCS)n-manifolds with respect to quarter symmetric metric connection. It is shown that the mean curvature of an invariant submanifold of (LCS)n-manifold with respect to…
The present paper deals with the study of Chaki-pseudo parallel and Deszcz-pseudo parallel invariant submanifolds of SQ-Sasakian manifolds with respect to Levi-Civita connection and semisymmetric metric connection and obtain that these two…
Let \gh = \gh_{-k}\oplus \cdots \oplus \gh_{l} (k >0, l \geq 0) be a finite dimensional real graded Lie algebra, with a Euclidian metric \langle \cdot , \cdot \rangle adapted to the gradation. The metric \langle\cdot , \cdot \rangle is…
Almost hypercomplex manifolds with Hermitian and anti-Hermitian metrics are considered. A linear connection $D$ is introduced such that the structure of these manifolds is parallel with respect to D. Of special interest is the class of the…
Differential calculi are obtained for quantum homogeneous spaces by extending Woronowicz' approach to the present context. Representation theoretical properties of the differential calculi are investigated. Connections on quantum…
The problem for consistency between linear transports along paths and real bundle metrics in real vector bundles is stated. Necessary and/or sufficient conditions, as well as conditions for existence, for such consistency are derived. All…
We introduce a class of semipositive metrics on ample line bundles in non-Archimedean geometry, called Shilov finite metrics. We calculate the determinant metric distorsion in the exact sequence induced by a global section using…
We study the sheaf of locally square integrable holomorphic section of vector bundle with semi-positive curved singular Hermitian metric. We confirm the coherence when its induced determinant metric has analytic singularities.
It is well known that pseudo-Riemannian metrics in the projective class of a given torsion free affine connection can be obtained from (and are equivalent to) the solutions of a certain overdetermined projectively invariant differential…
We discuss and investigate the problem of existence of metric-compatible linear connections for a given space-time metric which is, generally, assumed to be semi-pseudo-Riemannian. We prove that under sufficiently general conditions such…
In this paper, we investigate the projectively flat bundles over a class of non-compact Gauduchon manifolds. By combining heat flow techniques and continuity methods, we establish a correspondence between the existence of Hermitian-Poisson…
In this paper, we investigate metric Jordan algebras, and follow the lines of the paper (J. Milnor: Curvatures of left invariant metrics on Lie groups. Adv. Math. (1976)). Firstly, we define the Jordan-Levi-Civita connection, then we show…
