We study a Lie algebra type $\kappa$-deformed space with undeformed rotation algebra and commutative vector-like Dirac derivatives in a covariant way. Space deformation depends on an arbitrary vector. Infinitely many covariant realizations…

Hilbert--Lie groups are Lie groups whose Lie algebra is a real Hilbert space whose scalar product is invariant under the adjoint action. These infinite-dimensional Lie groups are the closest relatives to compact Lie groups. Here we study…

To any Hamiltonian action of a reductive algebraic group $G$ on a smooth irreducible symplectic variety $X$ we associate certain combinatorial invariants: Cartan space, Weyl group, weight and root lattices. For cotangent bundles our…

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 extend the results about left-invariant Codazzi tensor fields on Lie groups equipped with left-invariant Riemannian metrics obtained by d'Atri in 1985 to the setting of reductive homogeneous spaces $G/H$, where the curvature of the…

Our purpose is to use a Darboux homogenous derivative to understand the harmonic maps with values in homogeneous space. We present a characterization of these harmonic maps from the geometry of homogeneous space. Furthermore, our work…

For a smooth manifold $M$, it was shown in \cite{BPH} that every affine connection on the tangent bundle $TM$ naturally gives rise to covariant differentiation of multivector fields (MVFs) and differential forms along MVFs. In this paper,…

A family of naturally reductive pseudo-Riemannian spaces is constructed out of the representations of Lie algebras with ad-invariant metrics. We exhibit peculiar examples, study their geometry and characterize the corresponding naturally…

A systematic exposition is given of the theory of invariant differential operators on a not necessarily reductive homogeneous space. This exposition is modelled on Helgason's treatment of the general reductive case and the special…

It is developed the considerations from (S. M. Min\v{c}i\'c, [14, 15]) about curvature tensors and pseudotensors for a non-symmetric affine connection space in this paper. How many kinds of covariant derivatives are enough to be defined for…

Using the higher covariant derivative on a manifold $ M $ equipped with a torsion-free connection, we define a natural surjective bundle map $ \Phi $ from $ (\otimes(TM))\otimes (\wedge(TM)) $ to the vector bundle $ \mathcal{U}(M) $ of de…

Diagonal matrix elements of pseudodifferential operators are needed in order to compute effective Lagrangians and currents. For this purpose the method of symbols is often used, which however lacks manifest covariance. In this work the…

We consider homogeneous spaces of Lie groups with compact stabilizer subgroups of two types: those with integrable invariant distributions and those with geodesic orbit invariant Riemannian metrics. The latter means that for an arbitrary…

Let G be a Lie group, $T^*G$ its cotangent bundle with its natural Lie group structure obtained by performing a left trivialization of T^*G and endowing the resulting trivial bundle with the semi-direct product, using the coadjoint action…

Given a smooth foliation on a closed manifold, basic forms are differential forms that can be expressed locally in terms of the transverse variables. The space of basic forms yields a differential complex, because the exterior derivative…

A procedure to determine the initial ansatz for the co-frame and spin connection characterizing a Riemann-Cartan geometry respecting a given group of continuous symmetries is illustrated. Given a particular group of symmetries and assuming…

We study the covariant derivatives of an eigenfunction for the Laplace-Beltrami operator on a complete, connected Riemannian manifold with nonzero constant sectional curvature. We show that along every parallel tensor, the covariant…
