A note on the volume of -Einstein manifolds with skew-torsion

Ioannis Chrysikos (2021)

Communications in Mathematics

We study the volume of compact Riemannian manifolds which are Einstein with respect to a metric connection with (parallel) skew-torsion. We provide a result for the sign of the first variation of the volume in terms of the corresponding scalar curvature. This generalizes a result of M. Ville [Vil] related with the first variation of the volume on a compact Einstein manifold.

A remark on semi-∇-flat functions

Wojciech Kozłowski (2006)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

We give a pointwise characterization of semi-∇-flat functions on an affine manifold (M,∇).

Affine connections on almost para-cosymplectic manifolds

Adara M. Blaga (2011)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Identities for the curvature tensor of the Levi-Cività connection on an almost para-cosymplectic manifold are proved. Elements of harmonic theory for almost product structures are given and a Bochner-type formula for the leaves of the canonical foliation is established.

An anti-Kählerian Einstein structure on the tangent bundle of a space form

Vasile Oproiu, Neculai Papaghiuc (2005)

Colloquium Mathematicae

In [11] we have considered a family of almost anti-Hermitian structures (G,J) on the tangent bundle TM of a Riemannian manifold (M,g), where the almost complex structure J is a natural lift of g to TM interchanging the vertical and horizontal distributions VTM and HTM and the metric G is a natural lift of g of Sasaki type, with the property of being anti-Hermitian with respect to J. Next, we have studied the conditions under which (TM,G,J) belongs to one of the eight classes of anti-Hermitian structures...

Automorphisms of Spacetime Manifold with Torsion

Vladimir Ivanovich Pan’Zhenskii, Olga Petrovna Surina (2016)

Acta Universitatis Palackianae Olomucensis. Facultas Rerum Naturalium. Mathematica

In this paper we prove that the maximum dimension of the Lie group of automorphisms of the Riemann–Cartan 4-dimensional manifold does not exceed 8, and if the Cartan connection is skew-symmetric or semisymmetric, the maximum dimension is equal to 7. In addition, in the case of the Riemann–Cartan n -dimensional manifolds with semisymmetric connection the maximum dimension of the Lie group of automorphisms is equal to n ( n - 1 ) / 2 + 1 for any n > 2 .
