g -natural metrics of constant curvature on unit tangent sphere bundles

M. T. K. Abbassi, Giovanni Calvaruso (2012)

Archivum Mathematicum

Similarity:

We completely classify Riemannian g -natural metrics of constant sectional curvature on the unit tangent sphere bundle T 1 M of a Riemannian manifold ( M , g ) . Since the base manifold M turns out to be necessarily two-dimensional, weaker curvature conditions are also investigated for a Riemannian g -natural metric on the unit tangent sphere bundle of a Riemannian surface.

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

Similarity:

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.

The natural transformations between T-th order prolongation of tangent and cotangent bundles over Riemannian manifolds

Similarity:

If (M,g) is a Riemannian manifold then there is the well-known base preserving vector bundle isomorphism TM → T* M given by v → g(v,−) between the tangent TM and the cotangent T* M bundles of M. In the present note first we generalize this isomorphism to the one JrTM → JrTM between the r-th order prolongation JrTM of tangent TM and the r-th order prolongation JrT M of cotangent TM bundles of M. Further we describe all base preserving vector bundle maps DM(g) : JrTM → JrT* M depending...
