Let $(M,\langle,\rangle_{TM})$ be a Riemannian manifold. It is well-known that the Sasaki metric on $TM$ is very rigid but it has nice properties when restricted to $T^{(r)}M=\{u\in TM,|u|=r \}$. In this paper, we consider a general…

We study the geometry of compact Lorentzian manifolds that admit a somewhere timelike Killing vector field, and whose isometry group has infinitely many connected components. Up to a finite cover, such manifolds are products (or amalgamated…

We provide new examples of manifolds which admit a Riemannian metric with sectional curvature nonnegative, and strictly positive at one point. Our examples include the unit tangent bundles of $CP^n$, $HP^n$ and $CaP^2$, and a family of lens…

Tubular neighborhoods play an important role in differential topology. We have applied these constructions to geometry of almost Hermitian manifolds. At first, we consider deformations of tensor structures on a normal tubular neighborhood…

It is known that a Killing field on a compact pseudo-K\"ahler manifold is necessarily (real) holomorphic, as long as the manifold satisfies some relatively mild additional conditions. We provide two further proofs of this fact and discuss…

We study the conformal classes of 2-dimensional Lorentzian tori with (non zero) Killing fields. We define a map that associate to such a class a vector field on the circle (up to a scalar factor). This map is not injective but has finite…

Witten suggested that fixed-point theorems can be derived by the supersymmetric sigma model on a Riemann manifold M with potential term induced from Killing vector on M. One of the well-known fixed-point theorem is the Bott residue formula…

The tangent bundle $T^kM$ of order $k$, of a smooth Banach manifold $M$ consists of all equivalent classes of curves that agree up to their accelerations of order $k$. In the previous work of the author he proved that $T^kM$, $1\leq k\leq…

In a previous paper, we have introduced a new unified description of the main equations of the gravitational and of the electromagnetic field, in terms of tidal tensors and connections on the tangent bundle TM of the space-time manifold. In…

We investigate harmonic unit vector fields with totally geodesic integral curves on 3-manifolds. Under mild curvature assumptions, we classify both the vector fields and the manifolds that support them. Our results are inspired by…

We prove that every conformal vector field on the complex hyperbolic space $\mathbb{C}H^n$ is Killing for all $n\ge 2$. Although this rigidity is classically known, our proof is entirely different in nature: it is local, analytic, and fully…

The goal of this paper is to introduce the lifting theory that has an important role in geometry. Therefore, using the lifts of differential geometric structures we show that tangent bundle TM of paracomplex manifold M admits para-complex…

We consider a contact manifold with a pseudo-Riemannian metric and define a contact vector field intrinsically associated to this pair of structures. We call this new differential invariant the contact Riemannian curl. On a Riemannian…
