Riemann compatible tensors

Carlo Alberto Mantica, Luca Guido Molinari (2012)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Derdziński and Shen's theorem on the restrictions on the Riemann tensor imposed by existence of a Codazzi tensor holds more generally when a Riemann compatible tensor exists. Several properties are shown to remain valid in this broader setting. Riemann compatibility is equivalent to the Bianchi identity for a new "Codazzi deviation tensor", with a geometric significance. The above general properties are studied, with their implications on Pontryagin forms. Examples are given of manifolds with Riemann...

Riemannian manifolds not quasi-isometric to leaves in codimension one foliations

Paul A. Schweitzer (2011)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Every open manifold L of dimension greater than one has complete Riemannian metrics g with bounded geometry such that ( L , g ) is not quasi-isometric to a leaf of a codimension one foliation of a closed manifold. Hence no conditions on the local geometry of ( L , g ) suffice to make it quasi-isometric to a leaf of such a foliation. We introduce the ‘bounded homology property’, a semi-local property of ( L , g ) that is necessary for it to be a leaf in a compact manifold in codimension one, up to quasi-isometry. An essential...

Ruled W-surfaces in Minkowski 3-space 1 3

Rashad A. Abdel-Baky, H. N. Abd-Ellah (2008)

Archivum Mathematicum

In this paper, we study a spacelike (timelike) ruled W-surface in Minkowski 3-space which satisfies nontrivial relation between elements of the set { K , K I I , H , H I I } , where ( K , H ) and ( K I I , H I I ) are the Gaussian and mean curvatures of the first and second fundamental forms, respectively. Finally, some examples are constructed and plotted.
