We prove that conformally parametrized surfaces in Euclidean space $\Rcubec$ of curvature $c$ admit a symmetry reduction of their Gauss-Codazzi equations whose general solution is expressed with the sixth Painlevé function. Moreover, it is shown that the two known solutions of this type (Bonnet 1867, Bobenko, Eitner an…

This work presents a geometrical formulation of the Clairin theory of conditional symmetries for higher-order systems of partial differential equations (PDEs). We devise methods for obtaining Lie algebras of conditional symmetries from known conditional symmetries, and unnecessary previous assumptions of the theory are…

The curvature of Gauss maps for flat submanifolds is studied in space forms.

We introduce two families of soliton hierarchies: the twisted hierarchies associated to symmetric spaces. The Lax pairs of these two hierarchies are Laurent polynomials in the spectral variable. Our constructions gives a hierarchy of commuting flows for the generalized sine-Gordon equation (GSGE), which is the Gauss-Co…

New findings on Codazzi tensors in homogeneous spaces.

The paper classifies Codazzi hypersurfaces and characterizes minimal hypersurfaces in Nil^4.

We prove several Liouville-type non-existence theorems for higher order Codazzi tensors and classical Codazzi tensors on complete and compact Riemannian manifolds, in particular. These results will be obtained by using theorems of the connections between the geometry of a complete smooth manifold and the global behavio…

Equations link metrics with tensors, revealing curvature constraints.

The paper classifies Lorentzian Lie groups based on Codazzi tensors and quasi-statistical structures.

Nearly Kähler and Kähler-Codazzi type manifolds are defined in a very similar way. We prove that nearly Kähler type manifolds have sense just in Hermitian and para-Hermitian contexts, and that Kähler-Codazzi type manifolds reduce to Kähler type manifolds in all the four Hermitian, para-Hermitian, Norden and product Rie…

We extend a classical result by Derdzinski and Shen, on the restrictions imposed on the Riemann tensor by the existence of a nontrivial Codazzi tensor. The new conditions of the theorem include Codazzi tensors (i.e. closed 1-forms) as well as tensors with gauged Codazzi condition (i.e. "recurrent 1-forms"), typical of …

The fundamental equations of Gauss, Codazzi and Ricci provide the conditions for local isometric embeddability. In general, the three fundamental equations are independent for surfaces in Riemannian 4-manifolds. In contrast, we prove in this article that for arbitrary Lorentz surfaces in Lorentzian Kaehler surfaces the…

Introduces a new geometric structure for statistical manifolds with degenerate metrics.

E. Cartan proved that conformally flat hypersurfaces in S^{n+1} for n>3 have at most two distinct principal curvatures and locally envelop a one-parameter family of (n-1)-spheres. We prove that the Gauss-Codazzi equation for conformally flat hypersurfaces in S^4 is a soliton equation, and use a dressing action from sol…

The conformal Codazzi structure is an intrinsic geometric structure on strictly convex hypersufaces in a locally flat projective manifold. We construct the GJMS operators and the Q-curvature for conformal Codazzi structures by using the ambient metric. We relate the total Q-curvature to the logarithmic coefficient in t…

Formula connects $G_2$-structure geometry to Poisson equation.

Study left-invariant Codazzi tensors and harmonic curvature on Lorentzian Lie groups.

Integrability of the (2+1)-dimensional Gauss-Codazzi-Mainardi equation is considered. It is shown that this equation is the particular cases of the Yang-Mills-Higgs-Bogomolny and self-dual Yang-Mills equations.

In this paper we deal with the following problem: Find all Riemannian metrics on a manifold that can be realized isometrically as immersed hypersurfaces in the Euclidean space. We study this problem for a wide class of metrics on hypersurfaces arising from Codazzi tensors.

We prove a lower bound for the first eigenvalue of the Dirac operator on a compact Riemannian spin manifold depending on the scalar curvature as well as a chosen Codazzi tensor. The inequality generalizes the classical estimate from [2].

Decomposes submanifolds with special tensors into simpler parts.

In this paper we develop an abstract theory for the Codazzi equation on surfaces, and use it as an analytic tool to derive new global results for surfaces in the space forms ${\bb R}^3$, ${\bb S}^3$ and ${\bb H}^3$. We give essentially sharp generalizations of some classical theorems of surface theory that mainly depen…

New divergence identity for scalar curvature helps prove rigidity of tensors.

The paper extends Weyl's theorem to equiaffine hypersurfaces.

We discuss a gap in Besse's book, recently pointed out by Merton, which concerns the classification of Riemannian manifolds admitting a Codazzi tensors with exactly two distinct eigenvalues. For such manifolds, we prove a structure theorem, without adding extra hypotheses and then we conclude with some application of t…

Study proves uniqueness of corrugated negatively curved immersions in differential geometry.

This paper addresses a gap in the classifcation of Codazzi tensors with exactly two eigenfunctions on a Riemannian manifold of dimension three or higher. Derdzinski proved that if the trace of such a tensor is constant and the dimension of one of the the eigenspaces is $n-1$, then the metric is a warped product where t…

In this paper, we study the structure of the singular set for a $C^{1}$ smooth surface in the $3$-dimensional Heisenberg group $\boldsymbol{H}_{1}$. We discover a Codazzi-like equation for the $p$-area element along the characteristic curves on the surface. Information obtained from this ordinary differential equation …

The paper characterizes metallic pseudo-Riemannian manifolds using conjugate connections and tensor structures.

In this paper we examine the structure of Riemannian manifolds with a special kind of Codazzi tensors. We use them to construct globally hyperbolic Lorentzian manifolds with complete Cauchy hypersurfaces for any weakly irreducible holonomy representation with parallel spinors, i.e. with a holonomy group which is a semi…

Characterizes pseudo B-symmetric spacetimes and their implications in f(R) gravity.

We provide a congruence theorem for minimal surfaces in $S^5$ with constant contact angle using Gauss-Codazzi-Ricci equations. More precisely, we prove that Gauss-Codazzi-Ricci equations for minimal surfaces in $S^5$ with constant contact angle satisfy an equation for the Laplacian of the holomorphic angle. Also, we wi…

Paper proves biharmonic hypersurfaces in nonzero space form have constant mean curvature.

We establish the weak continuity of the Gauss-Coddazi-Ricci system for isometric embedding with respect to the uniform $L^p$-bounded solution sequence for $p>2$, which implies that the weak limit of the isometric embeddings of the manifold is still an isometric embedding. More generally, we establish a compensated comp…

Using global considerations, Mess proved that the moduli space of globally hyperbolic flat Lorentzian structures on $S\times\mathbb{R}$ is the tangent bundle of the Teichmüller space of $S$, if $S$ is a closed surface. One of the goals of this paper is to deepen this surprising occurrence and to make explicit the relat…

Derdzinski and Shen's theorem on the restrictions posed by a Codazzi tensor on the Riemann 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 of the new "Codazzi deviation …

Study lift metrics and connections on tangent bundles of Riemannian manifolds.

In [3] and [11] the authors showed the existence of a Codazzi pair defined on any constant mean curvature surface in the homogeneous spaces E($κ$,$τ$) associated to the Abresch-Rosenberg differential. In this paper, we use the mentioned Codazzi pair to classify capillary disks in E($κ$,$τ$). As a consequence, the resul…

Survey on recent developments in isometric immersions using PDE techniques.

Let $\nabla$ be a linear connection on an $2n$-dimensional almost anti-Hermitian manifold $M$\ equipped with an almost complex structure $J$, a pseudo-Riemannian metric $g$ and the twin metric $G=g\circ J$. In this paper, we first introduce three types of conjugate connections of linear connections relative to $g$, $G…

The paper explores a duality between conformally flat metrics and hyperbolic geometry.

The paper is devoted to differential geometry of singular distributions (i.e., of varying dimension) on a Riemannian manifold. Such distributions are defined as images of the tangent bundle under smooth endomorphisms. We prove the novel divergence theorem with the divergence type operator and deduce the Codazzi equatio…
