Extended Derdziński-Shen theorem for curvature tensors

Carlo Alberto Mantica, Luca Guido Molinari (2012)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We extend a remarkable theorem of Derdziński and Shen, on the restrictions imposed on the Riemann tensor by the existence of a nontrivial Codazzi tensor. We show that the Codazzi equation can be replaced by a more general algebraic condition. The resulting extension applies both to the Riemann tensor and to generalized curvature tensors.

The Cotton Tensor and the Ricci Flow

Carlo Mantegazza, Samuele Mongodi, Michele Rimoldi (2017)

Geometric Flows

Similarity:

We compute the evolution equation of the Cotton and the Bach tensor under the Ricci flow of a Riemannian manifold, with particular attention to the three dimensional case, and we discuss some applications.

On tensor fields semiconjugated with torse-forming vector fields

Lukáš Rachůnek, Josef Mikeš (2005)

Acta Universitatis Palackianae Olomucensis. Facultas Rerum Naturalium. Mathematica

Similarity:

The paper deals with tensor fields which are semiconjugated with torse-forming vector fields. The existence results for semitorse-forming vector fields and for convergent vector fields are proved.
