Abstract

We consider a class (M, g, q) of four-dimensional Riemannian manifolds M, where besides the metric g there is an additional structure q, whose fourth power is the unit matrix. We use the existence of a local coordinate system such that there the coordinates of g and q are circulant matrices. In this system q has constant coordinates and q is an isometry with respect to g. By the special identity for the curvature tensor R generated by the Riemannian connection of g we define a subclass of (M, g, q). For any (M, g, q) in this subclass we get some assertions for the sectional curvatures of two-planes. We get the necessary and sufficient condition for g such that q is parallel with respect to the Riemannian connection of g.
