A remark on left invariant metrics on compact Lie groups
The investigation of manifolds with non-negative sectional curvature is one of the classical fields of study in global Riemannian geometry. While there are few known obstruction for a closed manifold to admit metrics of non-negative sectional curvature, there are relatively few known examples and general construction methods of such manifolds (see [Z] for a detailed survey). In this context, it...
متن کاملInvariant Metrics with Nonnegative Curvature on Compact Lie Groups
We classify the left-invariant metrics with nonnegative sectional curvature on SO(3) and U(2).
متن کاملTechniques for Classifying Nonnegatively Curved Left-invariant Metrics on Compact Lie Groups
We provide techniques for studying the nonnegatively curved leftinvariant metrics on a compact Lie group. For “straight” paths of left-invariant metrics starting at bi-invariant metrics and ending at nonnegatively curved metrics, we deduce a nonnegativity property of the initial derivative of curvature. We apply this result to obtain a partial classification of the nonnegatively curved left-inv...
متن کاملHomogeneous Geodesics of Left Invariant Randers Metrics on a Three-Dimensional Lie Group
In this paper we study homogeneous geodesics in a three-dimensional connected Lie group G equipped with a left invariant Randers metric and investigates the set of all homogeneous geodesics. We show that there is a three-dimensional unimodular Lie group with a left invariant non-Berwaldian Randers metric which admits exactly one homogeneous geodesic through the identity element.

متن کاملLeft Invariant Contact Structures on Lie Groups
A result from Gromov ensures the existence of a contact structure on any connected non-compact odd dimensional Lie group. But in general such structures are not invariant under left translations. The problem of finding which Lie groups admit a left invariant contact structure (contact Lie groups), is then still wide open. We perform a ‘contactization’ method to construct, in every odd dimension...
