Betten and Riesinger constructed Parallelisms of $\mathop{\rm PG}(3,\mathbb R)$ with automorphism group $\mathop{\rm SO}(3,\mathbb R)$ by applying the reducible $\mathop{\rm SO}(3,\mathbb R)$-action to a rotational Betten spread. This was…

Using the Klein correspondence, regular parallelisms of PG(3,R) have been described by Betten and Riesinger in terms of a dual object, called a hyperflock determining (hfd) line set. In the special case where this set has a span of…

Betten and Riesinger have shown that Clifford parallelism on real projective space is the only topological parallelism that is left invariant by a group of dimension at least 5. We improve the bound to 4. Examples of different parallelisms…

We recall the notions of Clifford and Clifford-like parallelisms in a $3$-dimensional projective double space. In a previous paper the authors proved that the linear part of the full automorphism group of a Clifford parallelism is the same…

A regular parallelism of real projective 3-space PG(3,R) is an equivalence relation on the line space such that every class is equivalent to the set of 1-dimensional complex subspaces of a 2-dimensional complex vector space. We shall assume…

Let $\mathrm{PG}(3, q)$ denote the three-dimensional projective space over the finite field with $q$ elements. A line-spread of $\mathrm{PG}(3, q)$ is a collection $\mathcal{S}$ of mutually skew lines such that every point of…

The question of whether a closed, orientable manifold can admit a nontrivial vector field that is parallel with respect to some Riemannian metric is a classical problem in Differential Geometry, first posed by S. S. Chern [11]. In this…

We give a thorough analysis of those subgroups of SO(3) generated by rotations about perpendicular axes by 2\pi/p and 2\pi/q. A corollary is that such a group is the free product of the cyclic groups of rotations about the separate axes if…

If a finite group acts topologically, faithfully and orientation preservingly on R^3, then it is isomorphic to a subgroup of SO(3).

We construct explicit generating sets S_n and \tilde S_n of the for the alternating and the symmetric groups, which turn the Cayley graphs C(Alt(n), S_n) and C(Sym(n), \tilde S_n) into a family of bounded degree expanders for all n. This…

We express parallel transport for several common matrix Lie groups with a family of pseudo-Riemannian metrics in terms of matrix exponential and exponential actions. The metrics are constructed from a deformation of a bi-invariant metric…

We classify the normal CR structures on $S^3$ and their automorphism groups. Together with [3], this closes the classification of normal CR structures on contact 3-manifolds. We give a criterion to compare 2 normal CR structures, and we…

We give a new elementary proof of the parallelizability of closed orientable 3-manifolds. We use as the main tool the fact that any such manifold admits a Heegaard splitting.

We consider orientation-preserving actions of a finite group G on the 3-sphere S^3 (and also on Euclidean space R^3). By the geometrization of finite group actions on 3-manifolds, if such an action is smooth then it is conjugate to an…

An algebraic description of basic discrete symmetries (space inversion P, time reversal T, charge conjugation C and their combinations PT, CP, CT, CPT) is studied. Discrete subgroups {1,P,T,PT} of orthogonal groups of multidimensional…

This study presents a systematic enumeration of spherical ($SO(3)$) type parallel robots' variants using an analytical velocity-level approach. These robots are known for their ability to perform arbitrary rotations around a fixed point,…

The {\em topological symmetry group} of an embedding $\Gamma$ of an abstract graph $\gamma$ in $S^3$ is the group of automorphisms of $\gamma$ which can be realized by homeomorphisms of the pair $(S^3, \Gamma)$. These groups are motivated…

We prove that the automorphism group of a topological parallelism on real projective 3-space is compact. In a preceding article it was proved that at least the connected component of the identity is compact. The present proof does not…

Absolute Parallelism (AP) has many interesting features: large symmetry group of equations; field irreducibility with respect to this group; vast list of consistent second order equations not restricted to Lagrangian ones. There is the…

We construct an explicit generating sets $F_n$ and $\tilde F_n$ of the alternating and the symmetric groups, which make the Cayley graphs $C(Alt(n), F_n)$ and $C(Sym(n), \tilde F_n)$ a family of bounded degree expanders for all sufficiently…
