Defines semi-symmetric metric connection on super warped products.

In this paper, we study the Einstein warped products and multiply warped products with a quarter-symmetric connection. We also study warped products and multiply warped products with a quarter-symmetric connection with constant scalar curvature. Then apply our results to generalized Robertson-Walker spacetimes with a q…

The paper studies special warped products with a specific connection on super Riemannian manifolds.

The symmetric product of vector fields on a manifold arises when one studies the controllability of certain classes of mechanical control systems. A geometric description of the symmetric product is provided using parallel transport, along the lines of the flow interpretation of the Lie bracket. This geometric interpre…

In this paper, we compute the index form of the multiply twisted products. We study the Killing vector fields on the multiply twisted product manifolds and determine the Killing vector fields in some cases. We compute the curvature of the multiply twisted products with a semi-symmetric metric connection and show that t…

In this paper, we define a semi-symmetric metric Killing vector field, then study semi-symmetric metric Killing vector fields on warped and multiply warped products with a semi-symmetric metric connection. We also study Killing and 2-Killing vector fields on multiply warped products.

Study of sectorial decompositions in symmetric products of surfaces for symplectic geometry.

We provide very general symmetrization theorems in arbitrary dimension and codimension, in products, warped products, and certain fiber bundles such as lens spaces, including Steiner, Schwarz, and spherical symmetrization and admitting density.

Study special affine connections on symmetric spaces and their products.

The main goal of this paper is to discuss a symplectic interpretation of Lipshitz, Ozsvath and Thurston's bordered Heegaard-Floer homology in terms of Fukaya categories of symmetric products and Lagrangian correspondences. More specifically, we give a description of the algebra A(F) which appears in the work of Lipshit…

Let $X$ be a compact hyperbolic Riemann surface equipped with the Poincaré metric. For any integer $k\geq 2$, we investigate the Bergman kernel associated to the holomorphic Hermitian line bundle $Ω^{\otimes k}_X$, where $Ø$ is the holomorphic cotangent bundle of $X$. Our first main result estimates the corresponding B…

The paper constructs hypersurfaces in symmetric space products.

We prove minimal entropy rigidity for complete, finite volume manifolds locally isometric to a product of rank one symmetric spaces of dimension at least 3: the locally symmetric metric uniquely minimizes (normalized) entropy among all Riemannian metrics. The corresponding theorem is true for maps into these spaces as …

In this paper a new intrinsic geometric characterization of the symmetric square of a curve and of the ordinary product of two curves is given. More precisely it is shown that the existence on a surface of general type S of irregularity q of an effective divisor D having self-intersection D^2>0 and arithmetic genus q i…

Cohomogeneity-one actions on symmetric spaces of mixed type

In this paper, we extend Su-Zhang's Cheeger-Mueller type theorem for symmetric bilinear torsions to manifolds with boundary in the case that the Riemannian metric and the non-degenerate symmetric bilinear form are of product structure near the boundary. Our result also extends Bruening-Ma's Cheeger-Mueller type theorem…

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for orbits of commutative Hermann actions and actions of the direct product of two symmetric subgroups on compact Lie groups to be biharmonic in terms of symmetric triad with multiplicities. By this criterion, we determine all the proper biharmonic submanifolds in irreducibl…

In this paper, we study the quasi-Einstein and generalized quasi-Einstein warped products with a semi-symmetric non-metric connection. We give the expressions of the Ricci tensors and scalar curvatures for the bases and fibres. In some cases we give some obstructions to the existence of the quasi-Einstein and generaliz…

The paper constructs a Poisson algebra bundle for multilocal observables.

It is shown that a (curved) projective structure on a smooth manifold determines on the Poisson algebra of smooth, fiberwise-polynomial functions on the cotangent bundle a one-parameter family of graded star products. For a particular value of the parameter (corresponding to half-densities) the star product is symmetri…

We find a one-to-one correspondence between full extrinsic symmetric spaces in (possibly degenerate) inner product spaces and certain algebraic objects called (weak) extrinsic symmetric triples. In particular, this yields a description of arbitrary extrinsic symmetric spaces in pseudo-Euclidean spaces by corresponding …

We calculate the Hirzebruch $χ_y$ and $\hatχ_y$-genera of symmetric products of closed complex manifolds by the holomorphic Lefschetz formula of Atiyah and Singer \cite{Ati-Sin}. Such calculation rederive some formulas proved in an earlier paper \cite{Zho} by a different method.

In this short article, we find an explicit formula for Maslov index of Whitney n-gons joining intersections points of n half-dimensional tori in the symmetric product of a surface. The method also yields a formula for the intersection number of such an n-gon with the fat diagonal in the symmetric product.

We present an approach to cohomological dimension theory based on infinite symmetric products and on the general theory of dimension called the extension dimension. The notion of the extension dimension $\ExD(X)$ was introduced by A.N.Dranishnikov \cite {D$_5$} in the context of compact spaces and CW complexes. This pa…

We study left-invariant symmetric Killing 2-tensors on 2-step nilpotent Lie groups endowed with a left-invariant Riemannian metric, and construct genuine examples, which are not linear combinations of parallel tensors and symmetric products of Killing vector fields.

A new approach to Morse theory using folded ribbon trees.

It is well-known that the spectrum of a $\text{spin}^{\mathbb{C}}$ Dirac operator on a closed Riemannian $\text{spin}^{\mathbb{C}}$ manifold $M^{2k}$ of dimension $2k$ for $k \in \mathbb{N}$ is symmetric. In this article, we prove that over an odd-dimensional Riemannian product $M_{1}^{2p} \times M_{2}^{2q+1}$ with a p…

Characterizes higher rank model geometries using antipodal sets.

We prove that the tangent bundle of an inner symmetric space $M$ of compact type is weakly complex if and only if $M$ is a Riemannian product $M_1\times...\times M_k$, each $M_i$ being an even-dimensional round sphere or Hermitian symmetric.

We prove that all generalised symmetric spaces of compact simple Lie groups are formal in the sense of Sullivan. Nevertheless, many of them, including all the non-symmetric flag manifolds, do not admit Riemannian metrics for which all products of harmonic forms are harmonic.

Study of equivariant Poisson 2-algebra bundles over configuration spaces.

Let $X$ be a compact connected Riemann surface of genus $g\geq 0$, and let ${\rm Sym}^d(X)$, $d \ge 1$, denote the $d$-fold symmetric product of $X$. We show that ${\rm Sym}^d(X)$ admits a Hermitian metric with negative Chern scalar curvature if and only if $g \geq 2$, and positive Chern scalar curvature if and only if…

The main goal of this paper is a calculation of the integral (co)homology of the group of symmetric automorphisms of a free product. We proceed by giving a geometric interpretation of symmetric automorphisms via a moduli space of certain diagrams, which we name cactus products. To describe this moduli space a theory of…

We consider the problem of designing locality sensitive hashes (LSH) for inner product similarity, and of the power of asymmetric hashes in this context. Shrivastava and Li argue that there is no symmetric LSH for the problem and propose an asymmetric LSH based on different mappings for query and database points. Howev…

Given a positive integer $n$ and a compact connected Riemann surface $X$, we prove that the symmetric product $S^n(X)$ admits a Kaehler form of nonnegative holomorphic bisectional curvature if and only if $\text{genus}(X) \leq 1$. If $n$ is greater than or equal to the gonality of $X$, we prove that $S^n(X)$ does not a…

We outline an interpretation of Heegaard-Floer homology of 3-manifolds (closed or with boundary) in terms of the symplectic topology of symmetric products of Riemann surfaces, as suggested by recent work of Tim Perutz and Yanki Lekili. In particular we discuss the connection between the Fukaya category of the symmetric…
