This work generalizes the results of an earlier paper by the second author, from Randers metrics to $(\alpha,\beta)$-metrics. Let $F$ be an $(\alpha,\beta)$-metric which is defined by a left invariant vector field and a left invariant…

In this paper, we investigate the geometry of left-invariant Randers metrics on the Heisenberg group.

A simple Almost-Riemannian Structure on a Lie group G is defined by a linear vector field (that is an infinitesimal automorphism) and dim(G) -- 1 left-invariant ones. It is first proven that two different ARSs are isometric if and only if…

In this paper we identify all simply connected 3-dimensional real Lie groups which admit Randers or Matsumoto metrics of Berwald type with a certain underlying left invariant Riemannian metric. Then we give their flag curvatures formulas…

We compute the full isometry group of any left invariant metric on a simply connected, non-unimodular Lie group of dimension three. As an application, we determine the index of symmetry of such metrics and prove that the singularities of…

In the present paper, the flag curvature of invariant Randers metrics on homogeneous spaces and Lie groups is studied. We first give an explicit formula for the flag curvature of invariant Randers metrics arising from invariant Riemannian…

We investigate contact Lie groups having a left invariant Riemannian or pseudo-Riemannian metric with specific properties such as being bi-invariant, flat, negatively curved, Einstein, etc. We classify some of such contact Lie groups and…

It is known that a connected and simply-connected Lie group admits only one left-invariant Riemannian metric up to scaling and isometry if and only if it is isomorphic to the Euclidean space, the Lie group of the real hyperbolic space, or…

For each left-invariant Riemannian metric on simply connected nonunimodular Lie groups of dimension four, we determine the full group of isometries.

We describe the full group of isometries of each left invariant Riemannian metric on the simply connected unimodular nilpotent or solvable $(R)$-type Lie groups of dimension four.

A Lie group $G$ endowed with a left invariant Riemannian metric $g$ is called Riemannian Lie group. Harmonic and biharmonic maps between Riemannian manifolds is an important area of investigation. In this paper, we study different aspects…

We classify, up to automorphism, left invariant Riemannian metrics on 4-dimensional simply connected nonunimodular Lie groups. This is equivalent to classifying, up to automorphism, inner products on 4-dimensional nonunimodular Lie…

We consider Lie groups equipped with arbitrary distances. We only assume that the distance is left-invariant and induces the manifold topology. For brevity, we call such object metric Lie groups. Apart from Riemannian Lie groups,…

This note is concerned with the geometric classification of connected Lie groups of dimension three or less, endowed with left-invariant Riemannian metrics. On the one hand, assembling results from the literature, we give a review of the…

Let $G$ be a Lie group equipped with a left invariant Randers metric of Berward type $F$, with underlying left invariant Riemannian metric $g$. Suppose that $\widetilde{F}$ and $\widetilde{g}$ are lifted Randers and Riemannian metrics…

Let $G$ be a connected, simply-connected, compact simple Lie group. In this paper, we show that the isometry group of $G$ with a left-invariant pseudo-Riemannan metric is compact. Furthermore, the identity component of the isometry group is…

This paper examines the geometry of left-invariant vector fields on five-dimensional, simply connected, nilpotent Lie groups equipped with left-invariant Riemannian metrics. Using the canonical identification between the Lie algebra and the…

Let N be a nilpotent Lie group and let S be an invariant geometric structure on N (cf. symplectic, complex or hypercomplex). We define a left invariant Riemannian metric on N compatible with S to be "minimal", if it minimizes the norm of…

In the previous paper [MR2430243] we computed some geometric quantities such as curvature and flag curvature for a general left invariant Finsler metric on a two-step nilpotent group. In the present paper we give a more complete description…

For each connected and simply connected three-dimensional non-unimodular Lie group, we classify the left invariant Lorentzian metrics up to automorphism, and study the extent to which curvature can be altered by a change of metric. Thereby…
