We consider a concircularly semi-symmetric metric connection and its application. The Ricci tensors with respect to the concircularly semi-symmetric metric connection are symmetric, and they are used to define Einstein type manifolds. In…

This paper is devoted to geodesic completeness of left-invariant metrics for real and complex Lie groups. We start by establishing the Euler-Arnold formalism in the holomorphic setting. We study the real Lie group $\mathrm{SL}(2,…

A Riemannian manifold $(M,\rho)$ is called Einstein if the metric $\rho$ satisfies the condition $\Ric (\rho)=c\cdot \rho$ for some constant $c$. This paper is devoted to the investigation of $G$-invariant Einstein metrics with additional…

It is proved that the moduli space of static solutions of the CP^1 model on spacetime Sigma x R, where Sigma is any compact Riemann surface, is geodesically incomplete with respect to the metric induced by the kinetic energy functional. The…

The equations of motion of four-dimensional conformal gravity, whose Lagrangian is the square of the Weyl tensor, require that the Bach tensor $E_{\mu\nu}= (\nabla^\rho\nabla^\sigma + \ft12 R^{\rho\sigma})C_{\mu\rho\nu\sigma}$ vanishes.…

Thin gravitating defects with conical singularities in higher codimensions and with generalized Israel matching conditions are known to be inconsistent for generic energy-momentum. A way to remove this inconsistency is proposed and is…

Starting with a compact hyperbolic cone-manifold of dimension greater than or equal to 3, we study the deformations of the metric with the aim of getting Einstein cone-manifolds. If the singular locus is a closed codimension 2 submanifold…

The conformal Einstein equations for a tracefree (radiation) perfect fluid are derived in terms of the Levi-Civita connection of a conformally rescaled metric. These equations are used to provide a non-linear stability result for de…

A recently developed tool allows for a description of spacetime as a manifold with a Lorentz-invariant (lower) limit length built-in. This is accomplished in terms of geometric quantities depending on two spacetime events (bitensors) and…
