Defines semi-symmetric metric connection on super warped products.

A $(J^{2}=\pm 1)$-metric manifold has an almost complex or almost product structure $J$ and a compatible metric $g$. We show that there exists a canonical involution in the set of connections on such a manifold, which allows to define a projection over the set of connections adapted to $J$. This projection sends the Le…

For a system of second order differential equations we determine a nonlinear connection that is compatible with a given generalized Lagrange metric.

Connected space of Dirac-minimal metrics in 2 and 4 dimensions.

Families of linear connections are constructed on almost contact manifolds with Norden metric.

The Chern sectional curvature of a Hermitian manifold is derived and related to Kähler metrics.

As is well known, a metric on a manifold determines a unique symmetric connection for which the metric is parallel: the Levi-Civita connection. In this paper we investigate the inverse problem: to what extent is the metric of a Riemannian manifold determined by its Levi-Civita connection? It is shown that for a generic…

Study constructs Frenet curves using semi-symmetric metric connection.

We address the question: how large is the family of complete metrics with nonnegative sectional curvature on S^2xR^3? We classify the connection metrics, and give several examples of non-connection metrics. We provide evidence that the family is small by proving some rigidity results for metrics more general than conne…

We study the geometry of the canonical connection on a quasi-Kaehler manifold with Norden metric. We consider the cases when the canonical connection has Kaehler curvature tensor and parallel torsion, and derive conditions for an isotropic-Kaehler manifold. We give the relation between the canonical connection, the B-c…

Study on null-projectability of Levi-Civita connections in neutral metrics.

We develop the method of anholonomic frames with associated nonlinear connection (in brief, N--connection) structure and show explicitly how geometries with local anisotropy (various type of Finsler--Lagrange--Cartan--Hamilton geometry) can be modeled in the metric--affine spaces. There are formulated the criteria when…

The article describes canonical metrics on holomorphic fibre bundles.

We study the Schouten-van Kampen connection associated to an almost contact or paracontact metric structure. With the help of such a connection, some classes of almost (para) contact metric manifolds are characterized. Certain curvature properties of this connection are found.

We apply the results from the article Cahen, Schwachhöfer: Special symplectic connections, to the case of Bochner-Kaehler metrics. We obtain a (local) classification of these based on the orbit types of the adjoint action in $su(n,1)$. The relation between Sasaki and Bochner-Kaehler metrics in cone and transveral metri…

The invariant metric affine connections on Berger spheres which are Einstein with skew torsion are determined in both Riemannian and Lorentzian signature. Expressions of such connections are explicitly given. In particular, every Berger sphere with Lorentzian signature admits invariant metric affine connections Einstei…

Study rough Riemannian metrics on manifolds, proving their connectedness and completeness.

We develop a gluing procedure designed to obtain canonical metrics on connected sums of Einstein four-manifolds. The main application is an existence result, using two well-known Einstein manifolds as building blocks: the Fubini-Study metric on $\mathbb{CP}^2$ and the product metric on $S^2 \times S^2$. Using these met…

On a main class of the almost contact manifolds with B-metric, it is described the family of the linear connections preserving the manifold's structures by 4 parameters. In this family there are determined the canonical-type connection and the connection with zero parameters.

An SKT metric is a Hermitian metric on a complex manifold whose fundamental 2-form $ω$ satisfies $\de\debarω=0$. Streets and Tian introduced in \cite{sttiPlur} a Ricci-type flow that preserves the SKT condition. This flow uses the Ricci form associated to the Bismut connection, the unique Hermitian connection with tota…

Almost contact manifolds with B-metric are considered. There are studied three natural connections (i.e. linear connections preserving the structure tensors) determined by conditions for their torsions. These connections are investigated on a family of Lie groups considered as 5-dimensional almost contact B-metric mani…

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…
