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 …

The Riemann curvature tensor is a central mathematical tool in Einstein's theory of general relativity. Its related eigenproblem plays an important role in mathematics and physics. We extend M-eigenvalues for the elasticity tensor to the Riemann curvature tensor. The definition of M-eigenproblem of the Riemann curvatur…

The paper generalizes Riemann curvature for manifolds with discontinuous metrics.

A second-order differential identity for the Riemann tensor is obtained, on a manifold with symmetric connection. Several old and some new differential identities for the Riemann and Ricci tensors descend from it. Applications to manifolds with Recurrent or Symmetric structures are discussed. The new structure of K-rec…

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 …

This is an elementary observation that the symmetry properties of the Riemann curvature tensor can be (efficiently) expressed as SL(2)-invariance.

In the literature we see that after introducing a geometric structure by imposing some restrictions on Riemann-Christoffel curvature tensor, the same type structure given by imposing same restriction on other curvature tensors being studied. The main object of the present paper is to study the equivalency of various ge…

Given the Riemann, or the Weyl, or a generalized curvature tensor K, a symmetric tensor $b_{ij}$ is named `compatible' with the curvature tensor if $b_i{}^m K_{jklm} + b_j{}^m K_{kilm} + b_k{}^m K_{ijlm} = 0$. Amongst showing known and new properties, we prove that they form a special Jordan algebra, i.e. the symmetriz…

We show that on every ${\sf RCD}$ spaces it is possible to introduce, by a distributional-like approach, a Riemann curvature tensor. Since after the works of Petrunin and Zhang-Zhu we know that finite dimensional Alexandrov spaces are ${\sf RCD}$ spaces, our construction applies in particular to the Alexandrov setting.…

Study shows Bergman kernel quotient approaches one for punctured surfaces.

The Spencer cohomology of certain graded Lie superalgebras are completely computed. This cohomology is interpreted as analogs of Riemann and Penrose tensors on supermanifolds. The results make it manifest that there is no simple generalization of Borel-Weil-Bott's theorem for Lie superalgebras.

Generalizes Riemann's results on flat coordinates for non-symmetric bilinear forms.

We introduce the concept of singular values for the Riemann curvature tensor, a central mathematical tool in Einstein's theory of general relativity. We study the properties related to the singular values, and investigate five typical cases to show its relationship to the Ricci scalar and other invariants.

We study the properties of Modified Riemann extensions evolving under Ricci flow. We obtain the necessary and sufficient condition for modified Riemann extension under Ricci flow to stay as modified Riemann extension. We also discuss the properties of the curvature tensors under Ricci flow.

In this paper the rate relations of Riemann, conformal, conharmonic and Weyl curvature tensors under Yamabe flow are studied. Modified Riemann extensions under Yamabe flow is discussed. The paper ends with remarks on some standard metrics.

Introduces a new tensor for electrostatic systems in arbitrary dimensions.

In this paper we present several curvature estimates and convergence results for solutions of the Ricci flow. The curvature estimates depend on smallness of certain local space-time integrals of the norm of the Riemann curvature tensor, while the convergence results require finiteness of space-time integrals of the nor…

We generalized Xiang, Qi and Wei's results on the M-eigenvalues of Riemann curvature tensor to higher dimensional conformal flat manifolds. The expression of M-eigenvalues and M-eigenvectors are found in our paper. As a special case, M-eigenvalues of conformal flat Einstein manifold have also been discussed, and the co…

Constructs a unique Levi-Civita connection for generalised metrics.

We generalize the results of Montgomery for the Bochner Laplacian on high tensor powers of a line bundle. When specialized to Riemann surfaces, this leads to the Bergman kernel expansion and geometric quantization results for semi-positive line bundles whose curvature vanishes at finite order. The proof exploits the re…

In this article, we derive off-diagonal estimates of the Bergman kernel associated to tensor- products of the cotangent line bundle defined over a hyperbolic Riemann surface of finite volume.

We introduce a weighted de Rham operator which acts on arbitrary tensor fields by considering their structure as r-fold forms. We can thereby define associated superpotentials for all tensor fields in all dimensions and, from any of these superpotentials, we deduce in a straightforward and natural manner the existence …

Defines curvature for spectral triples and applies to θ-deformations.

Two explicit formulas for metric connections in the bundle of Dirac spinors are studied. Their equivalence is proved. The explicit formula relating the spinor curvature tensor with the Riemann curvature tensor is rederived.

Study on zeros of Gaussian sections on semipositive line bundles on punctured Riemann surfaces.

The purpose of this paper is to revisit the Bianchi identities existing for the Riemann and Weyl tensors in the combined framework of the formal theory of systems of partial differential equations (Spencer cohomology, differential systems, formal integrability) and Algebraic Analysis (homological algebra, differential …

We study the covariance properties of the equations satisfied by the generating functions of the chiral operators R and T of supersymmetric SO(N)/Sp(N) theories with symmetric/antisymmetric tensors. It turns out that T is an affine connection. As such it cannot be integrated along cycles on Riemann surfaces. This expla…

In this paper the authors study the hyperbolic geometric flow on Riemann surfaces. This new nonlinear geometric evolution equation was recently introduced by the first two authors motivated by Einstein equation and Hamilton's Ricci flow. We prove that, for any given initial metric on ${\mathbb{R}}^{2}$ in certain class…

A geometric flow based in the Riemann-Christoffel curvature tensor that in two dimensions has some common features with the usual Ricci flow is presented. For $n$ dimensional spaces this new flow takes into account all the components of the intrinsic curvature. For four dimensional Lorentzian manifolds it is found that…

We prove a general uniformization theorem for N=2 superconformal and N=1 superanalytic DeWitt super-Riemann surfaces, showing that in general an N=2 superconformal (resp. N=1 superanalytic) DeWitt super-Riemann surface is N=2 superconformally (resp., N=1 superanalytically) equivalent to a manifold with transition funct…

We study the spectral geometry of the Riemann curvature tensor for Pseudo-Riemannian manifolds and provide some examples illustrating the phenomena which can arise in the higher signature setting.

Study of hypersurfaces in curved spaces with specific curvature properties.

An important and natural question in the analysis of Ricci flow singularity formation in dimensions four and above is as follows: What are the weakest conditions that provide control of the norm of the Riemann curvature tensor? In this short note, we show that on a compact manifold, the trace-free Ricci tensor is contr…

New findings on gradient expanding Ricci solitons with finite scalar curvature ratio.

We formulate and solve the analog of the universal Conformal Ward Identity for the stress-energy tensor on a compact Riemann surface of genus $g>1$, and present a rigorous invariant formulation of the chiral sector in the induced two-dimensional gravity on higher genus Riemann surfaces. Our construction of the action f…
