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.

Metrizability of connections on two-manifolds

Alena Vanžurová, Petra Žáčková (2009)

Acta Universitatis Palackianae Olomucensis. Facultas Rerum Naturalium. Mathematica

Similarity:

We contribute to the reverse of the Fundamental Theorem of Riemannian geometry: if a symmetric linear connection on a manifold is given, find non-degenerate metrics compatible with the connection (locally or globally) if there are any. The problem is not easy in general. For nowhere flat 2 -manifolds, we formulate necessary and sufficient metrizability conditions. In the favourable case, we describe all compatible metrics in terms of the Ricci tensor. We propose an application in the...
