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...

Hierarchy of integrable geodesic flows.

Publicacions Matemàtiques

Similarity:

A family of integrable geodesic flows is obtained. Any such a family corresponds to a pair of geodesically equivalent metrics.

Metric of special 2F-flat Riemannian spaces

Raad J. K. al Lami (2005)

Acta Universitatis Palackianae Olomucensis. Facultas Rerum Naturalium. Mathematica

Similarity:

In this paper we find the metric in an explicit shape of special 2 F -flat Riemannian spaces V n , i.e. spaces, which are 2 F -planar mapped on flat spaces. In this case it is supposed, that F is the cubic structure: F 3 = I .
