Curvature properties of φ-null Osserman Lorentzian S-manifolds

Letizia Brunetti, Angelo Caldarella (2014)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

We expound some results about the relationships between the Jacobi operators with respect to null vectors on a Lorentzian S-manifold and the Jacobi operators with respect to particular spacelike unit vectors. We study the number of the eigenvalues of such operators on Lorentzian S-manifolds satisfying the φ-null Osserman condition, under suitable assumptions on the dimension of the manifold. Then, we provide in full generality a new curvature characterization for Lorentzian S-manifolds...

Similarity:

The object of the present paper is to study almost pseudo-Z-symmetric manifolds. Some geometric properties have been studied. Next we consider conformally flat almost pseudo-Z-symmetric manifolds. We obtain a sufficient condition for an almost pseudo-Z-symmetric manifold to be a quasi Einstein manifold. Also we prove that a totally umbilical hypersurface of a conformally flat A ( P Z S ) n ( n > 3 ) is a manifold of quasi constant curvature. Finally, we give an example to verify the result already obtained...

Scalar curvature and connected sums of self-dual 4-manifolds

Mustafa Kalafat (2011)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Under a reasonable vanishing hypothesis, Donaldson and Friedman proved that the connected sum of two self-dual Riemannian 4-manifolds is again self-dual. Here we prove that the same result can be extended to the positive scalar curvature case. This is an analogue of the classical theorem of Gromov–Lawson and Schoen–Yau in the self-dual category. The proof is based on twistor theory.
