Hermitian natural tensors.
We study the compact Hermitian spin surfaces with positive conformal scalar curvature on which the first eigenvalue of the Dolbeault operator of the spin structure is the smallest possible. We prove that such a surface is either a ruled surface or a Hopf surface. We give a complete classification of the ruled surfaces with this property. For the Hopf surfaces we obtain a partial classification and some examples
A family of integrable geodesic flows is obtained. Any such a family corresponds to a pair of geodesically equivalent metrics.
A Cartan connection associated with a pair is defined in the usual manner except that only the injectivity of is required. For an -th order connection associated with a bundle morphism the concept of Cartan order is defined, which for , and coincides with the classical definition. Results are obtained concerning the Cartan order of -th order connections that are the product of first order (Cartan) connections.
Let be an Hermitian quadratic form, of maximal rank and index , defined over a complex vector space . Consider the real hyperquadric defined in the complex projective space by Let be the subgroup of the special linear group which leaves invariant and the distribution defined by the Cauchy Riemann structure induced over . We study the real regular curves of constant type in , tangent to , finding a complete system of analytic invariants for two curves to be locally equivalent...
