On totally umbilical submanifolds of Finsler spaces

Qun He, Wei Yang, Wei Zhao (2011)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

The notion of a totally umbilical submanifold of a Finsler manifold is introduced. Some Gauss equations are given and some results on totally umbilical submanifolds of Riemannian manifolds are generalized. Totally umbilical submanifolds of Randers spaces are studied; a rigidity theorem and an example are given.

On types of non-integrable geometrie

Friedrich, Thomas (2003)

Proceedings of the 22nd Winter School "Geometry and Physics"

A G-structure on a Riemannian manifold is said to be integrable if it is preserved by the Levi-Civita connection. In the presented paper, the following non-integrable G-structures are studied: SO(3)-structures in dimension 5; almost complex structures in dimension 6; G 2 -structures in dimension 7; Spin(7)-structures in dimension 8; Spin(9)-structures in dimension 16 and F 4 -structures in dimension 26. G-structures admitting an affine connection with totally skew-symmetric torsion are characterized....

On Uniqueness Theoremsfor Ricci Tensor

Marina B. Khripunova, Sergey E. Stepanov, Irina I. Tsyganok, Josef Mikeš (2016)

Acta Universitatis Palackianae Olomucensis. Facultas Rerum Naturalium. Mathematica

In Riemannian geometry the prescribed Ricci curvature problem is as follows: given a smooth manifold M and a symmetric 2-tensor r , construct a metric on M whose Ricci tensor equals r . In particular, DeTurck and Koiso proved the following celebrated result: the Ricci curvature uniquely determines the Levi-Civita connection on any compact Einstein manifold with non-negative section curvature. In the present paper we generalize the result of DeTurck and Koiso for a Riemannian manifold with non-negative...
