We completely classify the algebraic Ricci solitons of four-dimensional pseudo-Riemannian generalized symmetric spaces.
In this note we consider versions of both Ricci and sectional curvature pinching for Riemannian manifold with density. In the Ricci curvature case the main result implies a diameter estimate that is new even for compact shrinking Ricci…

We investigate the superalgebra of derivations generated by the fundamental forms on manifolds with reduced structure group. In particular, we point out a relation between the algebra of derivations of heterotic geometries that admit…
We define new Riemannian structures on 7-manifolds by a differential form of mixed degree which is the critical point of a (possibly constrained) variational problem over a fixed cohomology class. The unconstrained critical points…

We study the intrinsic geometry of hypersurfaces in Calabi-Yau manifolds of real dimension 6 and, more generally, SU(2)-structures on 5-manifolds defined by a generalized Killing spinor. We prove that in the real analytic case, such a…
We obtain all the three-dimensional Lorentzian metrics which admit three Killing vectors. The classification has been done with the aid of the formalism which exploits the obstruction criteria for the Killing equations recently developed by…
It is shown that on compact $Spin(7)$--manifold with exterior derivative of the Lee form lying in the Lie algebra $spin(7)$ the curvature $R$ of the $Spin(7)$--torsion connection $R\in S^2\Lambda^2$ with vanishing Ricci tensor if and only…
We show that on every Spin(7) manifold there always exists a unique linear connection with totally skew-symmetric torsion preserving a nontrivial spinor and the Spin(7) structure. We express its torsion and the Riemannian scalar curvature…
The main purpose of the present paper is to investigate the symmetry properties of a K\"ahler manifold involving the Ricci tensor. In this context, the most symmetric manifolds are K\"ahler-Einstein spaces, and their natural generalizations…

Spinors are used in physics quite extensively. The goal of this study is also the spinor structure lying in the basis of the quaternion algebra. In this paper, first, we have introduced spinors mathematically. Then, we have defined…
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…
This article treats the Picard group of the moduli (stack) of r-spin curves and its compactification. Generalized spin curves, or r-spin curves are a natural generalization of 2-spin curves (algebraic curves with a theta-characteristic),…
Riemannian Einstein solvmanifolds can be described in terms of nilsolitons, namely nilpotent Lie groups endowed with a left-invariant Ricci soliton metric. This characterization does not extend to indefinite metrics; nonetheless,…
