Curvature properties of φ-null Osserman Lorentzian S-manifolds

Letizia Brunetti, Angelo Caldarella (2014)

Open Mathematics

We expound some results about the relationships between the Jacobi operators with respect to null vectors on a Lorentzian S-manifold and the Jacobi operators with respect to particular spacelike unit vectors. We study the number of the eigenvalues of such operators on Lorentzian S-manifolds satisfying the φ-null Osserman condition, under suitable assumptions on the dimension of the manifold. Then, we provide in full generality a new curvature characterization for Lorentzian S-manifolds and we use...

Curvature tensors and Ricci solitons with respect to Zamkovoy connection in anti-invariant submanifolds of trans-Sasakian manifold

Payel Karmakar (2022)

Mathematica Bohemica

The present paper deals with the study of some properties of anti-invariant submanifolds of trans-Sasakian manifold with respect to a new non-metric affine connection called Zamkovoy connection. The nature of Ricci flat, concircularly flat, ξ -projectively flat, M -projectively flat, ξ - M -projectively flat, pseudo projectively flat and ξ -pseudo projectively flat anti-invariant submanifolds of trans-Sasakian manifold admitting Zamkovoy connection are discussed. Moreover, Ricci solitons on Ricci flat,...

Curvatures of the diagonal lift from an affine manifold to the linear frame bundle

Oldřich Kowalski, Masami Sekizawa (2012)

Open Mathematics

We investigate the curvature of the so-called diagonal lift from an affine manifold to the linear frame bundle LM. This is an affine analogue (but not a direct generalization) of the Sasaki-Mok metric on LM investigated by L.A. Cordero and M. de León in 1986. The Sasaki-Mok metric is constructed over a Riemannian manifold as base manifold. We receive analogous and, surprisingly, even stronger results in our affine setting.

Curves in Lorentzian spaces

E. Nešović, M. Petrović-Torgašev, L. Verstraelen (2005)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

The notion of ``hyperbolic'' angle between any two time-like directions in the Lorentzian plane L 2 was properly defined and studied by Birman and Nomizu [1,2]. In this article, we define the notion of hyperbolic angle between any two non-null directions in L 2 and we define a measure on the set of these hyperbolic angles. As an application, we extend Scofield's work on the Euclidean curves of constant precession [9] to the Lorentzian setting, thus expliciting space-like curves in L 3 whose natural equations...
