We classify the holomorphic structures of the tangent vertical bundle T of the twistor fibration of a quaternionic manifold (M,Q) of dimension bigger than four. In particular, we show that any self-dual quaternionic connection on (M, Q) induces an holomorphic structure on T. We prove that the positive tensor powers of …

The authors establish a relation of the theory of varieties with degenerate Gauss maps in projective spaces with the theory of congruences and pseudocongruences of subspaces and show how these two theories can be applied to the construction of induced connections on submanifolds of projective spaces and other spaces en…

In this article we present a study of the subspaces of the manifold OscM, the total space of the osculator bundle of a real manifold M. We obtain the induced connections of the canonical metrical N-linear connection determined by the homogeneous prolongation of a Finsler metric to the manifold OscM. We present the rela…

The first examples of complete projective connections are uncovered: normal projective connections on surfaces whose geodesics are all closed and embedded are complete, as are normal projective connections induced from complete affine connections with slowly decaying positive Ricci curvature.

The $\bar{\partial}_{_{J}}$ operator over an almost complex manifold induces canonical connections of type $(0,1)$ over the bundles of $(p,0)$-forms. If the almost complex structure is integrable then the previous connections induce the canonical holomorphic structures of the bundles of $(p,0)$-forms. For $p=1$ we can …

The Finslerian unit ball is called the {\it Finsleroid} if the covering indicatrix is a space of constant curvature. We prove that Finsler spaces with such indicatrices possess the remarkable property that the tangent spaces are conformally flat with the conformal factor of the power dependence on the Finsler metric fu…

Higher-order tangent bundles have geometric structures compatible with their iterated bundle structure.

In this paper we study the geometrical structures on the cotangent bundle using the notions of adapted tangent structure and regular vector fields. We prove that the dynamical covariant derivative on $T^{*}M$ fix a nonlinear connection for a given $\mathcal{J}$-regular vector field. Using the Legendre transformation in…

For a smooth manifold $M$, it was shown in \cite{BPH} that every affine connection on the tangent bundle $TM$ naturally gives rise to covariant differentiation of multivector fields (MVFs) and differential forms along MVFs. In this paper, we generalize the covariant derivative of \cite{BPH} and construct covariant deri…

By referring to theorems of Donaldson and Hitchin, we exhibit a rigorous AdS/CFT-type correspondence between classical 2+1 dimensional vacuum general relativity theory on S x R and SO(3) Hitchin theory (regarded as a classical conformal field theory) on the spacelike past boundary S, a compact, oriented Riemann surface…

Study the geometry of transversal lightlike submanifolds in Metallic Semi-Riemannian manifolds.

In 1970, Samuel I. Goldberg and Kentaro Yano defined the notion of noninvariant hypersurface of a Sasakian manifold [1]. In this paper we have studied the properties of parallel vector fields with respect to induced connection on the noninvariant hypersurface $M$ of a Sasakian manifold $\tilde M$ with $(φ, g, u, v, λ)-…

Paper solves flat bi-Lagrangian structure problems in ray space.

We formulate an approach to the geometry of Riemann-Cartan spaces provided with nonholonomic distributions defined by generic off-diagonal and nonsymmetric metrics inducing effective nonlinear and affine connections. Such geometries can be modelled by moving nonholonomic frames on (pseudo) Riemannian manifolds and desc…

Study on conjugate connections and statistical structures on specific manifolds.

A special linear Lie group over the real number field and the quarternion field admits a projectivley flat affine connection. We show that parabolic subgroups are autoparallel submanifolds and give a criterion the induced connection is projectively equivalent to a flat affine connection.

Study of $\alpha$-associated metrics on null hypersurfaces.

The geometric constructions are elaborated on (semi) Riemannian manifolds and vector bundles provided with nonintegrable distributions defining nonlinear connection structures induced canonically by metric tensors. Such spaces are called nonholonomic manifolds and described by two equivalent linear connections also ind…

A {\em blink} is a plane graph with a bipartition (black, gray) of its edges. Subtle classes of blinks are in 1-1 correspondence with closed, oriented and connected 3-manifolds up to orientation preserving homeomorphisms \cite{lins2013B}. Switching black and gray in a blink $B$, giving $-B$, reverses the manifold orien…

We classify semi-Riemannian submersions with connected totally geodesic fibres from a real pseudo-hyperbolic space onto a semi-Riemannian manifold under the assumption that the dimension of the fibres is less than or equal to three and the metrics induced on fibres are negative definite. Also, we obtain the classificat…

For a compact connected Lie group $G$ we study the class of bi-invariant affine connections whose geodesics through $e\in G$ are the 1-parameter subgroups. We show that the bi-invariant affine connections which induce derivations on the corresponding Lie algebra $\frak{g}$ coincide with the bi-invariant metric connecti…

Conditions for metallic structures to induce integrable distributions and geodesic invariance.

Let $N$ be a compact, connected, nonorientable surface of genus $g$ with $n$ boundary components. Let $λ$ be a simplicial map of the complex of curves, $\mathcal{C}(N)$, on $N$ which satisfies the following: $[a]$ and $[b]$ are connected by an edge in $\mathcal{C}(N)$ if and only if $λ([a])$ and $λ([b])$ are connected …

Degenerate submanifolds of pseudo-Riemannian manifolds are quite difficult to study because there is no prefered connection when the submanifold is not totally geodesic. For the particular case of degenerate totally umbilical hypersurfaces, we show that there are "Weyl" connections adapted to the induced structure on t…
