We study isometries in the contact sub-pseudo-Riemannian geometry. In particular we give an upper bound on the dimension of the isometry group of a general sub-pseudo-Riemannian manifold and prove that the maximal dimension is attained for the left invariant structures on the Heisenberg group.

This paper classifies holonomy groups of K-contact sub-pseudo-Riemannian manifolds.
problem The problem of subspace degeneracy in indefinite signature metrics.
method Adapted for metrics of indefinite signature, bypassing subspace degeneracy.
result Horizontal holonomy group either coincides with the adapted holonomy group or acts as its normal subgroup of codimension one.
We consider local geometry of sub-pseudo-Riemannian structures on contact manifolds. We construct fundamental invariants of the structures and show that the structures give rise to Einstein-Weyl geometries in dimension 3, provided that certain additional conditions are satisfied.
We demonstrate how the novel approach to the local geometry of structures of nonholonomic nature, originated by Andrei Agrachev, works in the following two situations: rank 2 distributions of maximal class in R^n with non-zero generalized Wilczynski invariants and rank 2 distributions of maximal class in R^n with addit…
The paper studies geometric structures on SL(n,R) induced by the Killing form.
problem Understanding geometric structures on SL(n,R) induced by the Killing form.
method Constructing manifolds, studying Poisson-commutation relations, and solving Hamiltonian systems.
result Explicit solutions of Hamiltonian systems for n=2.
