In these notes we survey basic concepts of affine geometry and their interaction with Riemannian geometry. We give a characterization of affine manifolds which has as counterpart those pseudo-Riemannian manifolds whose Levi-Civita…
We study the geometry of Lie groups $G$ with a continuous Finsler metric, assuming the existence of a subgroup $K$ such that the metric is right-invariant for the action of $K$. We present a systematic study of the metric and geodesic…
We prove that each $3$-dimensional connected topological loop $L$ having a solvable Lie group of dimension $\le 5$ as the multiplication group of $L$ is centrally nilpotent of class $2$. Moreover, we classify the solvable non-nilpotent Lie…
Almost paracontact almost paracomplex Riemannian manifolds of the lowest dimension 3 are considered. Such structures are constructed on a family of Lie groups and the obtained manifolds are studied. Curvature properties of these manifolds…
In this paper, we continue with the results in \cite{Pg} and compute the group of quasi-isometries for a subclass of split solvable unimodular Lie groups. Consequently, we show that any finitely generated group quasi-isometric to a member…
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…
Carnot groups are distinguished spaces that are rich of structure: they are those Lie groups equipped with a path distance that is invariant by left-translations of the group and admit automorphisms that are dilations with respect to the…
We study isometric actions of Lie $2$-groups on Riemannian groupoids by exhibiting some of their immediate properties and implications. Firstly, we prove an existence result which allows both to obtain 2-equivariant versions of the Slice…

In this paper, we consider left-invariant para-complex structures on six-dimensional nilpotent Lie groups. A complete list of six-dimensional nilpotent Lie groups that admit para-K\"{a}hler structures is obtained, explicit expressions for…
Almost contact B-metric manifolds of dimension 3 are constructed by a two-parametric family of Lie groups. The class of these manifolds in a known classification of almost contact B-metric manifolds is determined as the direct sum of the…
We prove that all left-invariant contact structures on three-dimensional Lie groups are tight. The argument is based on Riemannian methods and establishes a unique factorization property for any Lie group admitting a left-invariant contact…
We study the relation between two special classes of Riemannian Lie groups $G$ with a left-invariant metric $g$: The Einstein Lie groups, defined by the condition $\operatorname{Ric}_g=cg$, and the geodesic orbit Lie groups, defined by the…
A Vaisman manifold is a special kind of locally conformally Kaehler manifold, which is closely related to a Sasaki manifold. In this paper we show a basic structure theorem of simply connected homogeneous Sasaki and Vaisman manifods of…
In this article studies questions about the existence of left-invariant K\"{a}hler and semi-para-K\"{a}hler structures on six-dimensional unsolvable Lie groups whose Lie algebras are semidirect products. According to the classification…
An idea to present a classical Lie group of positive dimension by generators and relations sounds dubious, but happens to be fruitful. The isometry groups of classical geometries admit elegant and useful presentations by generators and…
We construct a general cohomological induction isomorphism from a uniform measure equivalence of locally compact, second countable, unimodular groups which, as a special case, yields that the graded cohomology rings of quasi-isometric,…
The set E of Levi-Civita connections of left-invariant pseudo-Riemannian Einstein metrics on a given semisimple Lie group always includes D, the Levi-Civita connection of the Killing form. For the groups SU(l,j) (or SL(n,R), or SL(n,C) or,…
We give a full classification of 6-dimensional nilpotent Lie algebras over an arbitrary field, including fields that are not algebraically closed and fields of characteristic~2. To achieve the classification we use the action of the…
In this paper, we investigate left-invariant geodesic orbit metrics on connected simple Lie groups, where the metrics are formed by the structures of generalized flag manifolds. We prove that all these left-invariant geodesic orbit metrics…
