Abstract

top
We define the concept of a bi-Legendrian connection associated to a bi-Legendrian structure on an almost -manifold M 2 n + r . Among other things, we compute the torsion of this connection and prove that the curvature vanishes along the leaves of the bi-Legendrian structure. Moreover, we prove that if the bi-Legendrian connection is flat, then the bi-Legendrian structure is locally equivalent to the standard structure on 2 n + r .
