We collect the recent results on invariant f-structures in the generalized Hermitian geometry. Here the canonical f-structures on homogeneous k-symmetric spaces play a remarkable role. Specifically, these structures provide a wealth of…
Flag manifolds are in general not symmetric spaces. But they are provided with a structure of $\mathbb{Z}_2^k$-symmetric space. We describe the Riemannian metrics adapted to this structure and some properties of reducibility. We detail for…
In this work we study riemannian metrics on flag manifolds adapted to the symmetries of these homogeneous nonsymmetric spaces. We first introduce the notion of riemannian $\Gamma $-symmetric space when $\Gamma $ is a general abelian finite…
We study $4n$-dimensional smooth manifolds admitting a $\mathsf{SO}^*(2n)$- or a $\mathsf{SO}^*(2n)\mathsf{Sp}(1)$-structure, where $\mathsf{SO}^*(2n)$ is the quaternionic real form of $\mathsf{SO}(2n, \mathbb{C})$. We show that such…
We obtain new families of (1,2)-symplectic invariant metrics on the full complex flag manifolds F(n). For n > 4, we characterize n-3 different n-dimensional families of (1,2)-symplectic invariant metrics on F(n). Any of these families…
It is well known that the Einstein equation on a Riemannian flag manifold $(G/K,g)$ reduces to an algebraic system if $g$ is a $G$-invariant metric. In this paper we obtain explicitly new invariant Einstein metrics on generalized flag…
We define flag structures on a real three manifold M as the choice of two complex lines on the complexified tangent space at each point of M. We suppose that the plane field defined by the complex lines is a contact plane and construct an…
We study the intrinsic geometrical structure of hypersurfaces in 6-manifolds carrying a balanced Hermitian SU(3)-structure, which we call {\em balanced} SU(2)-{\em structures}. We provide conditions which imply that such a 5-manifold can be…
We prove that the number of complex invariant Einstein metrics on the flag manifold $M_{n_1,n_2,n_3}=SO_{2(n_1+n_2+n_3)+1}/U_{n_1} \times U_{n_2} \times SO_{2n_3+1}$ is equal to 132, except when the parameters $n_1, n_2, n_3$ satisfy one of…
We find the precise number of non-K\"ahler $SO(2n)$-invariant Einstein metrics on the generalized flag manifold $M=SO(2n)/U(p)\times U(n-p)$ with $n\geq 4$ and $2\leq p\leq n-2$. We use an analysis on parametric systems of polynomial…
We study the index of symmetry of a compact generalized flag manifold M=G/H endowed with an invariant Kaehler structure. When the group G is simple we show that the leaves of symmetry are irreducible Hermitian symmetric spaces and we…
We locally classify all SO(3)-invariant 4-dimensional pseudo-Finsler Berwald structures. These are Finslerian geometries which are closest to (spatially, or SO(3))-spherically symmetric pseudo-Riemannian ones - and serve as ansatz to find…
We introduce a generalization of structured manifolds as the most general Riemannian metric g associated to an affinor (tensor field of (1,1)-type) F and initiate a study of their semi-invariant submanifolds. These submanifolds are…
The fundamental 2-form of an invariant almost Hermitian structure on a 6-dimensional Lie group is described in terms of an action by SO(4)xU(1) on complex projective 3-space. This leads to a combinatorial description of the classes of…
In this paper we study invariant almost Hermitian geometry on generalized flag manifolds which the isotropy representation decompose into two or three irreducible components. We will provide a classification of such flag manifolds admitting…
Properties of invariant, anti-invariant and slant isometrically immersed submanifolds of metallic Riemannian manifolds are given with a special view towards the induced $\Sigma$-structure. Examples of such metallic manifolds are also given.
In this paper we study invariant almost Hermitian geometry on generalized flag manifolds. We will focus on providing examples of K\"ahler like scalar curvature metric, that is, almost Hermitian structures $(g,J)$ satisfying $s=2s_{\rm C}$,…
We discuss the construction of Sp(2)Sp(1)-structures whose fundamental form is closed. In particular, we find 10 new examples of 8-dimensional nilmanifolds that admit an invariant closed 4-form with stabiliser Sp(2)Sp(1). Our constructions…
The metrizability problem for a symmetric affine connection on a manifold, invariant with respect to a group of diffeomorphisms G, is considered. We say that the connection is G-metrizable, if it is expressible as the Levi-Civita connection…
