Conformal connections on Lyra manifolds
We give an algebraic characterization of the case when conformal Weyl and conformal Lyra connections have the same curvature tensor. It is determined a (1,3)-tensor field invariant to certain transformation of semi-symmetric connections, compatible with Weyl structures on conformal manifolds. It is studied the case when this tensor is vanishing. M.S.C. 2000: 53B05, 53B20, 53B21.
متن کاملAffine Connections, and Midpoint Formation
It is a striking fact that differential calculus exists not only in analysis (based on the real numbers R), but also in algebraic geometry, where no limit processes are available. In algebraic geometry, one rather uses the idea of nilpotent elements in the “affine line” R; they act as infinitesimals. (Recall that an element x in a ring R is called nilpotent if xk = 0 for suitable non-negative i...
متن کاملRicci curvature of affine connections
We show various examples of torsion-free affine connections which preserve volume elements and have definite Ricci curvature tensors.
متن کاملAffine Connections with W = 0
If ∇ is a torsionless connection on the tangent bundle of a manifold M the Weyl curvature W is the part of the curvature in kernel of the Ricci contraction. We give a coordinate free proof of Weyl’s result that W vanishes if and only if (M,∇) is (locally) diffeomorphic to RP with ∇, when transported to RP, in the projective class of ∇LC , the Levi-Civita connection of the Fubini–Study metric on...
متن کاملThe Solutions of Affine and Conformal Affine Toda Field Theories
We give new formulations of the solutions of the field equations of the affine Toda and conformal affine Toda theories on a cylinder and two-dimensional Minkowski space-time. These solutions are parameterised in terms of initial data and the resulting covariant phase spaces are diffeomorphic to the Hamiltonian ones. We derive the fundamental Poisson brackets of the parameters of the solutions a...
