We consider the tomography problem of recovering a covector field on a simple Riemannian manifold based on its weighted Doppler transformation over a family of curves ΓΓ. This is a generalization of the attenuated Doppler transform. Uniqueness is proven for a generic set of weights and families of curves under a condi…

Extended recurrent pseudo-Riemannian manifolds were introduced by Mileva Prvanovic'.

The d-invariant of an integral, positive definite lattice L records the minimal norm of a characteristic covector in each equivalence class mod 2L. We prove that the 2-isomorphism type of a connected graph is determined by the d-invariant of its lattice of integral cuts (or flows). As an application, we prove that a re…

We investigate connections between pairs of (pseudo-)Riemannian metrics whose sum is a (tensor) product of a covector field with itself. A bijective mapping between the classes of Euclidean and Lorentzian metrics is constructed as a special result. The existence of such maps on a differentiable manifold is discussed. S…

Let MM be a smooth manifold of dimension 2n2n, and let OMO_{M} be the dense open subbundle in 2TM\wedge^{2}T^{\ast}M of 22-covectors of maximal rank. The algebra of DiffM\operatorname*{Diff}M-invariant smooth functions of first order on OMO_{M} is proved to be isomorphic to the algebra of smooth Sp(Ωx)Sp(Ω_{x})-invariant fun…

For any manifold M, the direct sum TM \oplus T*M carries a natural inner product given by the pairing of vectors and covectors. Differential forms on M may be viewed as spinors for the corresponding Clifford bundle, and in particular there is a notion of \emph{pure spinor}. In this paper, we study pure spinors and Dira…

In this study, we define a family of null curves in Minkowski 3-space and called null similar curves. We obtain some properties of these special curves. We show that two null curves are null similar curves if and only if these curves form a null Bertrand pair. Moreover, we obtain that the family of null geodesics and n…

We introduce a new kind of Riemannian manifold that includes weakly-, pseudo- and pseudo projective- Ricci symmetric manifolds. The manifold is defined through a generalization of the so called Z tensor; it is named "weakly Z symmetric" and denoted by (WZS)_n. If the Z tensor is singular we give conditions for the exis…

A maximum principle for C^0 null hypersurfaces is obtained and used to derive a splitting theorem for spacetimes which contain null lines. As a consequence of this null splitting theorem, it is proved that an asymptotically simple vacuum (Ricci flat) spacetime which contains a null line is isometric to Minkowski space.

We clarify the relationship between the null geodesic completeness of an Einstein Lorentz manifold and its conformal Kobayashi pseudodistance. We show that an Einstein manifold has at least one incomplete null geodesic if its pseudodistancfe is nontrivial. If its pseudodistance is nondegenerate, all of its null geodesi…

The complex of "stable forms" on supermanifolds is studied. Stable forms on MM are represented by certain Lagrangians of "copaths" (formal systems of equations, which may or may not specify actual surfaces) on M×RDM\times\mathbb R^D. Changes of DD give rise to stability isomorphisms. The Cartan--de Rham complex made of…
