Develops radiant structures for statistical manifolds.

A selfsimiar manifold is a Riemannian manifold $\left(M,g\right)$ endowed with a homothetic vector field $ξ$. We characterize global selfsimilar manifolds and describe the structure of local selfsimilar manifolds. We prove that any selfsimilar manifold with a potential homothetic vector field is a conical Riemannian ma…

An affine manifold is a manifold with torsion-free flat affine connection. A geometric topologist's definition of an affine manifold is a manifold with an atlas of charts to the affine space with affine transition functions; a radiant affine manifold is an affine manifold with holonomy consisting of affine transformati…

A Sim(n-1,1) affine manifold is an affine manifold whose linear holonomy is contained in the similarity lorentzian group but not in the lorentzian group. The class of similarity lorentzian affine manifolds is a small part in the nice class of conformally lorentzian flat manifolds. In this paper we show that a compact S…

Given any smooth plane curve α(s)representing a mirror that reflects light the usual way and any radiant light source at a point in the plane, the reflected light will produce a caustic envelope. For such an envelope, we show that there is an associated curve \b{eta}(s) and a family of circles C(s) that roll on \b{eta}…

We try to understand the geometric properties of $n$-manifolds ($n\geq 2$) with geometric structures modeled on $(\bR P^n, \PGL(n+1, \bR))$, i.e., $n$-manifolds with projectively flat torsion free affine connections. We define the notion of $i$-convexity of such manifolds due to Carriére for integers $i$, $1 \leq i \le…

The Margulis invariant is a function defined on a group of Lorentzian transformations $G$ acting on Minkowski space $\R^{2,1}$, that contains no elliptic elements. The spectrum of $G$ is the sequence of values of the Margulis invariant for all its elements. If the underlying linear group of $G$ is fixed, Drumm and Gold…

Study reveals flatness of Hessian metrics with non-negative Ricci curvature on foliation leaves.

We present a technique for efficiently synthesizing images of atmospheric clouds using a combination of Monte Carlo integration and neural networks. The intricacies of Lorenz-Mie scattering and the high albedo of cloud-forming aerosols make rendering of clouds---e.g. the characteristic silverlining and the "whiteness" …

Hypersymplectic structures with torsion on Lie algebroids are investigated. We show that each hypersymplectic structure with torsion on a Lie algebroid determines three Nijenhuis morphisms. From a contravariant point of view, these structures are twisted Poisson structures. We prove the existence of a one-to-one corres…

Parabolic almost conformally symplectic structures were introduced in the first part of this series of articles as a class of geometric structures which have an underlying almost conformally symplectic structure. If this underlying structure is conformally symplectic, then one obtains a PCS-structure. In the current ar…

In this paper, we show the existence of (co-oriented) contact structures on certain classes of $G_2$-manifolds, and that these two structures are compatible in certain ways. Moreover, we prove that any seven-manifold with a spin structure (and so any manifold with $G_2$-structure) admits an almost contact structure. We…

Two Kähler structures are PCR equivalent in the Siegel domain.

We characterize the Dirac structures that are parallel with respect to Gualtieri's canonical connection of a generalized Riemannian metric. On the other hand, we discuss Dirac structures that are images of generalized tangent structures. These structures turn out to be Dirac structures that, if seen as Lie algebroids, …

In this paper we deal with two classes of mixed metric 3-structures, namely the mixed 3-Sasakian structures and the mixed metric 3-contact structures. Firstly we study some properties of the curvature of mixed 3-Sasakian structures, proving that any manifold endowed with such a structure is Einstein. Then we prove the …

We study integrability of generalized almost contact structures, and find conditions under which the main associated maximal isotropic vector bundles form Lie bialgebroids. These conditions differentiate the concept of generalized contact structures from a counterpart of generalized complex structures on odd-dimensiona…
