We investigate the triviality of compact Ricci solitons under general scalar conditions involving the Weyl tensor. More precisely, we show that a compact Ricci soliton is Einstein if a generic linear combination of divergences of the Weyl…
We look for four dimensional Einstein-Weyl spaces equipped with a regular Bianchi metric. Using the explicit 4-parameters expression of the distance obtained in a previous work for non-conformally-Einstein Einstein-Weyl structures, we show…
We introduce the new algebraic property of Weyl compatibility for symmetric tensors and vectors. It is strictly related to Riemann compatibility, which generalizes the Codazzi condition while preserving much of its geometric implications.…
In this paper the certain 4-dimensional algebra in 4-dimensional pseudo-Riemannian space with signature (1, -1, -1, -1) is constructed. On the basis of this algebra the elements of the analysis, i.e. the theory of 4-dimensional functions of…
If $A$ is a unital associative ring and $\ell \geq 2$, then the general linear group $\mathrm{GL}(\ell, A)$ has root subgroups $U_\alpha$ and Weyl elements $n_\alpha$ for $\alpha$ from the root system of type $\mathsf A_{\ell - 1}$.…
We consider spacetime to be a connected real 4-manifold equipped with a Lorentzian metric and an affine connection. The 10 independent components of the (symmetric) metric tensor and the 64 connection coefficients are the unknowns of our…
We introduce a new family of operators in 4-dimensional pseudo-Riemannian manifolds with a non-vanishing Weyl scalar (non-degenerate spaces) that keep the conformal covariance of \emph{conformally covariant tensor concomitants}. A…
In this article, we study the multiparameter second quantum Weyl algebra at roots of unity. In this setting, the algebra is a polynomial identity (PI) algebra, and the dimension of its simple modules is bounded above by its PI degree. We…
Einstein-Weyl geometry is a triple (D,g,w), where D is a symmetric connection, [g] is a conformal structure and w is a covector such that: (i) connection D preserves the conformal class [g], that is, Dg=wg; (ii) trace-free part of the…
The original Askey-Wilson algebra introduced by Zhedanov encodes the bispectrality properties of the eponym polynomials. The name 'Askey-Wilson algebra' is currently used to refer to a variety of related structures that appear in a large…
We give detailed exposition of modern differential geometry from global coordinate independent point of view as well as local coordinate description suited for actual computations. In introduction, we consider Euclidean spaces and different…
Originally motivated by connections to integrable systems, two natural subalgebras of the rational Cherednik algebra have been considered in the literature. The first is the subalgebra of all degree zero elements and the second is the Dunkl…
The Bochner technique is a classical tool in global differential geometry for proving vanishing and rigidity results by exploiting curvature conditions. Building on recent extensions of this method to complete non-compact settings by…
We consider four (real or complex) dimensional hyper-K\"ahler metrics with a conformal symmetry K. The three-dimensional space of orbits of K is shown to have an Einstein-Weyl structure which admits a shear-free geodesics congruence for…
The classical Rainich(-Misner-Wheeler) theory gives necessary and sufficient conditions on an energy-momentum tensor $T$ to be that of a Maxwell field (a 2-form) in four dimensions. Via Einstein's equations these conditions can be expressed…
This paper introduces and studies a class of Weyl-type algebras \(A_{p,t,\cA} = \Weyl{e^{\pm x^{p} e^{t x}},\; e^{\cA x},\; x^{\cA}}\) constructed over exponential-polynomial rings, where \(\FF\) is a field of characteristic zero, \(\cA\)…

Weyl's conformal theory of gravity is an extension of Einstein's theory of general relativity which associates metrics with 1-forms . In the case of locally integrable (closed non-exact) 1-forms the spacetime manifolds are no more simply…
The algebraic classification of the Weyl tensor in arbitrary dimension n is recovered by means of the principal directions of its "superenergy" tensor. This point of view can be helpful in order to compute the Weyl aligned null directions…
We extensively motivate the studies of higher-derivative gravities, and in particular we emphasize which new quantum features theories with six derivatives in their definitions possess. Next, we discuss the mathematical structure of the…
