Abstract

A selfsimiar manifold is a Riemannian manifold (M,g)\left(M,g\right) endowed with a homothetic vector field ξ\xi. We characterize global selfsimilar manifolds and describe the structure of local selfsimilar manifolds. We prove that any selfsimilar manifold with a potential homothetic vector field is a conical Riemannian manifold or a Eucledean space. A radiant Hessian manifold is selfsimilar Hessian manifold (M,,g,ξ)\left(M,\nabla,g,\xi\right) such that ξ=λId\nabla\xi=\lambda \text{Id}. We prove that any selfsimilar Hessian manifold with a potential homothetic vector field is locally isomorphic to a product radiant Hessian manifolds and describe the local structure of radiant selfsimialar Hessian manifolds.
