Statistical structures on tangent bundles.
Traceless cubic forms on statistical manifolds and Tchebychev geometry
Geometry of traceless cubic forms is studied. It is shown that the traceless part of the cubic form on a statistical manifold determines a conformal-projective equivalence class of statistical manifolds. This conformal-projective equivalence on statistical manifolds is a natural generalization of conformal equivalence on Riemannian manifolds. As an application, Tchebychev type immersions in centroaffine immersions of codimension two are studied.
