Abstract

We study homogeneous curves in generalized flag manifolds G/KG/K with G2G_2-type tt-roots, which are geodesics with respect to each GG-invariant metric on G/KG/K. These curves are called equigeodesics. The tangent space of such flag manifolds splits into six isotropy summands, which are in one-to-one correspondence with tt-roots. Also, these spaces are a generalization of the exceptional full flag manifold G2/TG_2/T. We give a characterization for structural equigeodesics for flag manifolds with G2G_2-type tt-roots, and we give for each such flag manifold, a list of subspaces in which the vectors are structural equigeodesic vectors.
