As a photon propagates along a null geodesic, the space-time curvature around the geodesic distorts its wave function. We utilise the Fermi coordinates adapted to a general null geodesic, and derive the equation for interaction between the…

We give manifolds in both the Riemannian and in the higher signature settings whose Riemann curvature operators commute, i.e. which satisfy R(a,b)R(c,d)=R(c,d)R(a,b) for all tangent vectors. These manifolds have global geometric phenomena…
