Curvatures of the diagonal lift from an affine manifold to the linear frame bundle

Oldřich KowalskiMasami Sekizawa — 2012

Open Mathematics

We investigate the curvature of the so-called diagonal lift from an affine manifold to the linear frame bundle LM. This is an affine analogue (but not a direct generalization) of the Sasaki-Mok metric on LM investigated by L.A. Cordero and M. de León in 1986. The Sasaki-Mok metric is constructed over a Riemannian manifold as base manifold. We receive analogous and, surprisingly, even stronger results in our affine setting.

Invariance of g -natural metrics on linear frame bundles

Oldřich KowalskiMasami Sekizawa — 2008

Archivum Mathematicum

In this paper we prove that each g -natural metric on a linear frame bundle L M over a Riemannian manifold ( M , g ) is invariant with respect to a lifted map of a (local) isometry of the base manifold. Then we define g -natural metrics on the orthonormal frame bundle O M and we prove the same invariance result as above for O M . Hence we see that, over a space ( M , g ) of constant sectional curvature, the bundle O M with an arbitrary g -natural metric G ˜ is locally homogeneous.
