We examine questions of geometric realizability for algebraic structures which arise naturally in affine and Riemannian geometry. Suppose given an algebraic curvature operator R at a point P of a manifold M and suppose given a real analytic…

The conformal Fefferman-Graham ambient metric construction is one of the most fundamental constructions in conformal geometry. It embeds a manifold with a conformal structure into a pseudo-Riemannian manifold whose Ricci tensor vanishes up…

Within the scope of Bianchi type-I cosmological model we study the role of spinor field in the evolution of the Universe. It is found that due to the spinor affine connections the energy momentum tensor of the spinor becomes non-diagonal,…

In this paper, we mainly study left invariant pseudo-Riemannian Ricci-parallel metrics on connected Lie groups which are not Einstein. Following a result of Boubel and B\'{e}rard Bergery, there are two typical types of such metrics, which…

In this paper, we consider orthogonal Ricci curvature $Ric^{\perp}$ for K\"ahler manifolds, which is a curvature condition closely related to Ricci curvature and holomorphic sectional curvature. We prove comparison theorems and a vanishing…

A projective parameter of a geodesic on a Finsler space is defined to be solution of a certain ODE. Using projective parameter and Funk metric, one can construct a projectively invariant intrinsic pseudo-distance on a Finsler space. In the…

We introduce a class of overdetermined systems of partial differential equations of finite type on (pseudo)-Riemannian manifolds that we call the generalised Ricci soliton equations. These equations depend on three real parameters. For…

We consider a concircularly semi-symmetric metric connection and its application. The Ricci tensors with respect to the concircularly semi-symmetric metric connection are symmetric, and they are used to define Einstein type manifolds. In…
