If a sequence of Riemannian manifolds, $X_i$, converges in the pointed Gromov-Hausdorff sense to a limit space, $X_\infty$, and if $E_i$ are vector bundles over $X_i$ endowed with metrics of Sasaki-type with a uniform upper bound on rank,…
Fino and Kath determined all possible holonomy groups of seven-dimensional pseu\-do-Rie\-man\-nian manifolds contained in the exceptional, non-compact, simple Lie group $\mathrm{G}_2^*$ via the corresponding Lie algebras. They are…
In this paper we investigate the relationship between the existence of parallel semi-Riemannian metrics of a connection and the reducibility of the associated holonomy group. The question as to whether the holonomy group necessarily reduces…
We discuss some geometric aspects of PSL(2,C), SL(2,C), and the space G of the geodesics of H^3 equipped with some suitable structures of Riemannian holomorphic manifolds of constant sectional curvature. We also observe that G is a…
We investigate the holonomy group of a linear metric connection with skew-symmetric torsion. In case of the euclidian space and a constant torsion form this group is always semisimple. It does not preserve any non-degenerated 2-form or any…
We describe a new class of holonomy groups on pseudo-Riemannian manifolds. Namely, we prove the following theorem. Let g be a nondegenerate bilinear form on a vector space V, and L:V -> V a g-symmetric operator. Then the identity component…
On a closed connected oriented manifold $M$ we study the space $\mathcal{M}_\|(M)$ of all Riemannian metrics which admit a non-zero parallel spinor on the universal covering. Such metrics are Ricci-flat, and all known Ricci-flat metrics are…
For the ``Hopf bundle'' $S^1\to S^{2n,1} \to {\mathbb H}^n$, horizontal lifts of simple closed curves are studied. Let $\gamma$ be a piecewise smooth, simple closed curve on a complete totally geodesic surface $S$ in the base space. Then…
A locally conformally K\"ahler (lcK) manifold is a complex manifold $(M,J)$ together with a Hermitian metric $g$ which is conformal to a K\"ahler metric in the neighbourhood of each point. In this paper we obtain three classification…
This article investigates the holonomy groups of K-contact sub-pseudo-Riemannian manifolds. The primary result is a proof that the horizontal holonomy group either coincides with the adapted holonomy group or acts as its normal subgroup of…
Let $M=G/H$ be a compact connected isotropy irreducible Riemannian homogeneous manifold, where $G$ is a compact Lie group (may be, disconnected) acting on $M$ by isometries. This class includes all compact irreducible Riemannian symmetric…
The object of this article is to compute the holonomy group of the normal connection of complex parallel submanifolds of the complex projective space. We also give a new proof of the classification of complex parallel submanifolds by using…
Among plenty of applications, low-dimensional homogeneous spaces appear in cosmological models as both, classical factor spaces of multidimensional geometry and minisuperspaces in canonical quantization. Here a new tool to restrict their…
We consider the question: can the isotropy representation of an irreducible pseudo-Riemannian symmetric space be realized as a conformal holonomy group? Using recent results of Cap, Gover and Hammerl, we study the representations of…
By [arXiv:1604.00528], a list of possible holonomy algebras for pseudo-Riemannian manifolds with an indecomposable torsion free ${\rm G}_{2}^*$-structure is known. Here indecomposability means that the standard representation of the algebra…
The holonomy group of the adapted connection on a K-contact Riemannian manifold $(M, \theta, g)$ is considered. It is proved that if the orbit space $M/\xi$ of the Reeb field $\xi$ action admits a manifold structure, then the holonomy group…
The algebra $\mathcal{L}_{g,n}(H)$ was introduced by Alekseev-Grosse-Schomerus and Buffenoir-Roche and quantizes the character variety of the Riemann surface $\Sigma_{g,n}\!\setminus\! D$ ($D$ is an open disk). In this article we define a…
We study in this paper previously defined by V.N. Berestovskii and C.P. Plaut $\delta$-homogeneous spaces in the case of Riemannian manifolds. Every such manifold has non-negative sectional curvature. The universal covering of any…
We say that a metric space $X$ is $(\epsilon,G)$-homogeneous if $G<Iso(X)$ is a discrete group of isometries with $diam(X/G)<\epsilon$.\ A sequence of $(\epsilon_i,G_i)$-homogeneous spaces $X_i$ with $\epsilon_i\to0$ is called a sequence of…
We prove the following monotonicity result for the holonomy group: Given a sequence of metric connections converging in $C^0$ such that all its members have holonomy contained in a closed group $H$, also their limit connection needs to have…
