The paper characterizes compatible linear connections on 3D Finsler manifolds.

A linear connection on a Finsler manifold is called compatible to the metric if its parallel transports preserve the Finslerian length of tangent vectors. Generalized Berwald manifolds are Finsler manifolds equipped with a compatible linear connection. Since the compatibility to the Finslerian metric does not imply the…

Extending Lévi-Civita's concept to non-quadratic spaces, this study finds extremal compatible linear connections.

Generalized Berwald manifolds are Finsler manifolds admitting linear connections such that the parallel transports preserve the Finslerian length of tangent vectors (compatibi\-li\-ty condition). By the fundamental result of the theory \cite{V5} such a linear connection must be metrical with respect to the averaged Rie…

New approach connects Finsler geometry's metric and connections.

Integrable hierarchies linked to F-manifolds with compatible connection.

We discuss and investigate the problem of existence of metric-compatible linear connections for a given space-time metric which is, generally, assumed to be semi-pseudo-Riemannian. We prove that under sufficiently general conditions such connections exist iff the rank and signature of the metric are constant. On this b…

Study of multiplicative connections in Lie groupoids.

I do not agree with the authors of papers arXiv:0806.2184 and arXiv:0901.1023v1 (published in Phys. Lett., respectively, B668 (2008) 453 and B676 (2009) 173). They consider that \textit{"In Finsler manifold, there exists a unique linear connection - the Chern connection ... It is torsion freeness and metric compatibili…

We show that a properly convex projective structure $\mathfrak{p}$ on a closed oriented surface of negative Euler characteristic arises from a Weyl connection if and only if $\mathfrak{p}$ is hyperbolic. We phrase the problem as a non-linear PDE for a Beltrami differential by using that $\mathfrak{p}$ admits a compatib…

The aim of this paper is to study from the point of view of linear connections the data $(M,\mathcal{D},g,W),$ with $M$ a smooth $(n+p)$ dimensional real manifold, $(\mathcal{D},g)$ a \textit{$n$}\textit{\emph{dimensional semi-Riemannian distribution}}\emph{}on $M,$ $\mathcal{G}$ the conformal structure generated by $g…

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…

In this contribution we review results on the kinematics of a quantum system localized on a connected configuration manifold and compatible dynamics for the quantum system including external fields and leading to non-linear Schrödinger equations for pure states.

It is well-known that a torsion-free linear connection on a light-like manifold $(M,g)$ compatible with the degenerate metric $g$ exists if and only if $Rad(TM)$ is a Killing distribution. In case of existence, there is an infinitude of connections with none distinguished. We propose a method to single out connections …

Linear F-manifolds are studied with connections and dual spaces.

Generalized Lagrange-Weyl structures and compatible connections are introduced as a natural generalization of similar notions from Riemannian geometry. Exactly as in Riemannian case, the compatible connection is unique if certain symmetry conditions with respect to vertical and horizontal Christoffel symbols are impose…

The paper explores how the Gauss curvature of Riemannian surfaces can be represented as the divergence of a vector field.

The aim of this paper is to adapt the general multitime maximum principle to a Riemannian setting. More precisely, we intend to study geometric optimal control problems constrained by the metric compatibility evolution PDE system; the evolution ("multitime") variables are the local coordinates on a Riemannian manifold,…

We consider the Chern connection of a (conic) pseudo-Finsler manifold $(M,L)$ as a linear connection $\nabla^V$ on any open subset $Ω\subset M$ associated to any vector field $V$ on $Ω$ which is non-zero everywhere. This connection is torsion-free and almost metric compatible with respect to the fundamental tensor $g$.…

A linear connection on a Lie algebroid is called a Cartan connection if it is suitably compatible with the Lie algebroid structure. Here we show that a smooth connected manifold $M$ is locally homogeneous - i.e., admits an atlas of charts modeled on some homogeneous space $G/H$ - if and only if there exists a transitiv…

Bi-Hamiltonian structures are of great importance in the theory of integrable Hamiltonian systems. The notion of compatibility of symplectic structures is a key aspect of bi-Hamiltonian systems. Because of this, a few different notions of compatibility have been introduced. In this paper we show that, under some additi…

The article classifies liftings of connections on differential manifolds for geodesic modeling.

We semiclassicalise the theory of quantum group principal bundles to the level of Poisson geometry. The total space $X$ is a Poisson manifold with Poisson-compatible contravariant connection, the fibre is a Poisson-Lie group in the sense of Drinfeld with bicovariant Poisson-compatible contravariant connection, and the …

Generalized Berwald manifolds are Finsler manifolds admitting linear connections such that the parallel transports preserve the Finslerian length of tangent vectors. By the fundamental result of the theory \cite{V5} such a linear connection must be metrical with respect to the averaged Riemannian metric given by integr…

We develop the formalism for noncommutative differential geometry and Riemmannian geometry to take full account of the *-algebra structure on the (possibly noncommutative) coordinate ring and the bimodule structure on the differential forms. We show that *-compatible bimodule connections lead to braid operators $σ$ in …

The goal of this paper is to encode equivalently the fractional Lagrange dynamics as a nonholonomic almost Kahler geometry. We use the fractional Caputo derivative generalized for nontrivial nonlinear connections (N-connections) originally introduced in Finsler geometry, with further developments in Lagrange and Hamilt…

Symmetric connections that are compatible with semi-Riemannian metrics can be characterized using an existence result for an integral leaf of a (possibly non integrable) distribution. In this paper we give necessary and sufficient conditions for a left-invariant connection on a Lie group to be the Levi-Civita connectio…

An introduction into the theory of locally anisotropic spaces (modelled as vector bundles provided with compatible nonlinear and distinguished linear connections and metric structures and containing as particular cases different types of Kaluza--Klein and/or extensions of Lagrange and Finsler spaces) is presented. The …

The construction of gauge theories beyond the realm of Lie groups and algebras leads one to consider Lie groupoids and algebroids equipped with additional geometrical structures which, for gauge invariance of the construction, need to satisfy particular compatibility conditions. This paper analyzes these compatibilitie…

We will introduce two notions of compatibility bettwen pseudo-Riemannian metric and Poisson structure using the notion of contravariant connection introduced by Fernandes R. L., we will study some proprities of manifold endowed with such compatible structures an we will give some examples.

Some general properties of compatible Poisson brackets of hydrodynamic type are discussed, in particular: (1) an invariant differential-geometric criterion of the compatibility based on the Nijenhuis tensor; (2) the Lax pair with a spectral parameter governing compatible Poisson brackets in the diagonalizable case; (3)…

The paper constructs compatible Poisson brackets on gl(N).

In this paper we construct a Hitchin connection in a setting, which significantly generalizes the setting covered by the first author previously, which in turn was a generalisation of the moduli space case covered by Hitchin in his original work on the Hitchin connection. In fact, our construction provides a Hitchin co…

The notion of Poisson manifold with compatible pseudo-metric was introduced by the author in [1]. In this paper, we introduce a new class of Lie algebras which we call a pseudo-Rieamannian Lie algebras. The two notions are strongly related: we prove that a linear Poisson structure on the dual of a Lie algebra has a com…

We study which geometric structure can be constructed from the vierbein (frame/coframe) variables and which field models can be related to this geometry. The coframe field models, alternative to GR, are known as viable models for gravity, since they have the Schwarzschild solution. Since the local Lorentz invariance is…

This paper, sixth in a series of eight, uses the geometric calculus on manifolds developed in previous papers of the series to introduce through the concept of a metric extensor field g a metric structure for a smooth manifold M. The associated Christoffel operators, a notable decomposition of that object and the assoc…

For a system of second order differential equations we determine a nonlinear connection that is compatible with a given generalized Lagrange metric. Using this nonlinear connection, we can find the whole family of metric nonlinear connections that can be associated with a system of SODE and a generalized Lagrange struc…

The set of local gauge invariant quantities for linearized gravity on the Kerr spacetime presented by two of the authors (S.A, T.B.) in (arXiv:1803.05341) is shown to be complete. In particular, any gauge invariant quantity for linearized gravity on Kerr that is local and of finite order in derivatives can be expressed…

We consider certain type of fiber bundles with odd dimensional compact contact base, exact symplectic fibers, and the structure group contained in the group of exact symplectomorphisms of the fiber. We call such fibrations "contact symplectic fibrations". By a result of Hajduk-Walczak, some of these admit contact struc…

Consider an anchored bundle $(E,ρ)$, i.e. a vector bundle $E\to M$ equipped with a bundle map $ρ\colon E \to TM$ covering the identity. M.~Kapranov showed in the context of Lie-Rinehard algebras that there exists an extension of this anchored bundle to an infinite rank universal free Lie algebroid $FR(E)\supset E$. We …
