Leibniz algebras are certain generalization of Lie algebras. In this paper we give classification of non-Lie solvable (left) Leibniz algebras of dimension $\leq 8$ with one dimensional derived subalgebra. We use the canonical forms for the…

We develop a new construction of complete non-compact 8-manifolds with Riemannian holonomy equal to $\operatorname{Spin}(7)$. As a consequence of the holonomy reduction, these manifolds are Ricci-flat. These metrics are built on the total…

It is known that all left-invariant pseudo-Riemannian metrics on $H_3$ are algebraic Ricci solitons. We consider generalizations of Riemannian $H$-type, namely pseudo$H$-type and $pH$-type. We study algebraic Ricci solitons of…

The geodesic orbit property is useful and interesting in itself, and it plays a key role in Riemannian geometry. It implies homogeneity and has important classes of Riemannian manifolds as special cases. Those classes include weakly…

We consider Lie groups equipped with a left-invariant cyclic Lorentzian metric. As in the Riemannian case, in terms of homogeneous structures, such metrics can be considered as different as possible from bi-invariant metrics. We show that…

In the present article the geometry of semi-Riemannian manifolds with nonholonomic constraints is studied. These manifolds can be considered as analogues to the sub-Riemannian manifolds, where the positively definite metric is substituted…

That announcement gives the structure of totally reducible linear Lie algebras which are the Lie algebra of the holonomy group of (at least) one torsion-free connection. The result uses the (already known) classi cation of the irreducible…

An $F$-manifold is complex manifold with a multiplication on the holomorphic tangent bundle with a certain integrability condition. Important examples are Frobenius manifolds and especially base spaces of universal unfoldings of isolated…

We study the existence of invariant metrics with holonomy $G_{2(2)}^* \subset SO(4,3)$ on compact nilmanifolds, i.e. on compact quotients of nilpotent Lie groups by discrete subgroups. We prove that, up to isomorphism, there exists only one…

We study 3-dimensional non-Riemannian Lorentz geometries, i.e. compact locally homogeneous Lorentz 3-manifolds with non-compact (local) isotropy group. One result is that, up to a finite cover, all such manifolds admit Lorentz metrics of…

We consider a natural generalisation of the class of hyperbolic Kac-Moody algebras. We describe in detail the conditions under which these algebras are Lorentzian. We also construct their fundamental weights, and analyse whether they…

There is a well developed theory of weakly symmetric Riemannian manifolds. Here it is shown that several results in the Riemannian case are also valid for weakly symmetric pseudo-Riemannian manifolds, but some require additional hypotheses.…

We classify two-symmetric Lorentzian manifolds using methods of the theory of holonomy groups. These manifolds are exhausted by a special type of pp-waves and, like the symmetric Cahen-Wallach spaces, they have commutative holonomy.
