Infinitesimal automorphisms and deformations of parabolic geometries

Andreas Čap (2008)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We show that infinitesimal automorphisms and infinitesimal deformations of parabolic geometries can be nicely described in terms of the twisted de Rham sequence associated to a certain linear connection on the adjoint tractor bundle. For regular normal geometries, this description can be related to the underlying geometric structure using the machinery of BGG sequences. In the locally flat case, this leads to a deformation complex, which generalizes the well known complex for locally conformally...

Invariants homotopiques attachés aux fibrés symplectiques

Pierre Dazord (1979)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

On donne une construction géométrique d’invariants généralisant la classe de Maslov-Arnold d’une immersion lagrangienne dans un fibré cotangent et l’indice de Maslov-Arnold-Leray d’une immersion lagrangienne 2 q -orientée dans R n R n * : la classe de Maslov-Arnold universelle d’un fibré symplectique et l’indice de Maslov-Arnold-Leray d’un fibré q -symplectique, c’est-à-dire dont le groupe structural est le revêtement à q feuillets de S p ( n ) . Tout ceci relève d’une situation géométrique générale dans laquelle s’introduisent...

Invariants of complex structures on nilmanifolds

Edwin Alejandro Rodríguez Valencia (2015)

Archivum Mathematicum

Let ( N , J ) be a simply connected 2 n -dimensional nilpotent Lie group endowed with an invariant complex structure. We define a left invariant Riemannian metric on N compatible with J to be minimal, if it minimizes the norm of the invariant part of the Ricci tensor among all compatible metrics with the same scalar curvature. In [7], J. Lauret proved that minimal metrics (if any) are unique up to isometry and scaling. This uniqueness allows us to distinguish two complex structures with Riemannian data, giving...
