We put into light the Killing vector fields on $\mathbb R^2$ endowed with a family of diagonal Riemannian metrics. According to certain restrictions on the Lam\'{e} coefficients, we concretely describe the symmetries of the metric.
Given a holomorphic Hilbertian bundle on a compact complex manifold, we introduce the notion of holomorphic $L^2$ torsion, which lies in the determinant line of the twisted $L^2$ Dolbeault cohomology and represents a volume element there.…

We introduce a new construction of bilinear invariant forms on Lie algebras, based on the method of graded contractions. The general method is described and the $\Bbb Z_2$-, $\Bbb Z_3$-, and $\Bbb Z_2\otimes\Bbb Z_2$-contractions are found.…
The Killing operator on a Riemannian manifold is a linear differential operator on vector fields whose kernel provides the infinitesimal Riemannian symmetries. The Killing operator is best understood in terms of its prolongation, which…
In [7], Liu and Wang generalized the Han-Liu-Zhang cancellation formulas to the (a, b) type cancellation formulas. In this note, we prove some another (a, b) type cancellation formulas for even-dimensional Riemannian manifolds. And by…
Using twistor methods, we explicitly construct all local forms of four--dimensional real analytic neutral signature anti--self--dual conformal structures $(M,[g])$ with a null conformal Killing vector. We show that $M$ is foliated by…
As a step towards the structure theory of Lie algebras in symmetric monoidal categories we establish results involving the Killing form. The proper categorical setting for discussing these issues are symmetric ribbon categories.
We study tautness properties of a Riemannian foliation by investigating a symmetric 2-tensor associated with the mean curvature of the foliation. As a consequence, we prove a tautness condition for Riemannian foliations on compact manifolds…
We study transversely Lorentzian foliations on the closed 3-manifolds. We classify them under a completeness hypothesis and we deduce the dual classification of codimension 1 geodesically complete timelike totally geodesic foliations.…
We consider the problem of conformally deforming a metric to one with a prescribed symmetric function of the eigenvalues of the Ricci tensor, in the case of negative curvature.
We describe all quasiconformal maps on the higher (real and complex) model Filiform groups equipped with the Carnot metric, including non-smooth ones. These maps have very special forms. In particular, they are all biLipschitz and preserve…
We employ the language of Cartan's geometry to present a model for studying vector spaces of Killing two-tensors defined in pseudo-Riemannian spaces of constant curvature under the action of the corresponding isometry group. We also discuss…
We study left invariant conformal Killing-Yano (CKY) $2$-forms on Lie groups endowed with a left invariant metric. We classify all $5$-dimensional metric Lie algebras carrying CKY tensors that are obtained as a one-dimensional central…
We study the group properties and the similarity solutions for the constraint conditions of anti-self-dual null K\"{a}hler four-dimensional manifolds with at least a Killing symmetry vector. Specifically we apply the theory of Lie…

Let M be a real analytic Riemannian manifold. An adapted complex structure on TM is a complex structure on a neighborhood of the zero section such that the leaves of the Riemann foliation are complex submanifolds. This structure is called…
We study the geometry of compact Lorentzian manifolds that admit a somewhere timelike Killing vector field, and whose isometry group has infinitely many connected components. Up to a finite cover, such manifolds are products (or amalgamated…
