The Partial Ricci Flow on $\mathfrak{g}$-foliations

Differential Geometry 2021-01-29 v4

Abstract

In the paper we introduce new metric structures on g\mathfrak{g}-foliations that are less rigid than the well-known structures: almost contact and 3-quasi-Sasakian structures as well as ff-structures with parallelizable kernel and almost para-ϕ\phi-structures with complemented frames. We discuss the properties of the new structures in order to demonstrate similarities with the corresponding classical structures. Then using the flow of metrics on a g\mathfrak{g}-foliation, we build deformation retraction of our structures with positive partial Ricci curvature onto the subspace of the aforementioned classical structures.
