For a Riemannian foliation on a closed manifold, the first secondary invariant of Molino's central sheaf is an obstruction to tautness. Another obstruction is the class defined by the basic component of the mean curvature with respect to…

Although scalar curvature is the simplest curvature invariant, our understanding of scalar curvature has not matured to the same level as Ricci or sectional curvature. Despite this fact, many rigidity phenomenon have been established which…

In this short paper, we study a symmetric covariant tensor in Finsler geometry, which is called the mean Berwald curvature. We first investigate the geometry of the fibres as the submanifolds of the tangent sphere bundle on a Finsler…

Projective invariance is a symmetry of the Palatini version of General Relativity which is not present in the metric formulation. The fact that the Riemann tensor changes nontrivially under projective transformations implies that, unlike in…

We consider the Lie group $SU_2$ endowed with a left-invariant axisymmetric Riemannian metric. This means that a metric has eigenvalues $I_1 = I_2, I_3 > 0$. We give an explicit formula for the diameter of such metric. Other words, we…
