Compatible and almost compatible pseudo-Riemannian metrics
In this paper, notions of compatible and almost compatible Riemannian and pseudo-Riemannian metrics, which are motivated by the theory of compatible (local and nonlocal) Poisson structures of hydrodynamic type and generalize the notion of flat pencil of metrics (this notion plays an important role in the theory of integrable systems of hydrodynamic type and the Dubrovin theory of Frobenius mani...
متن کاملON THE LIFTS OF SEMI-RIEMANNIAN METRICS
In this paper, we extend Sasaki metric for tangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold and Sasaki-Mok metric for the frame bundle of a Riemannian manifold [I] to the case of a semi-Riemannian vector bundle over a semi- Riemannian manifold. In fact, if E is a semi-Riemannian vector bundle over a semi-Riemannian manifold M, then by using an arbitrary (linear) connection on E, we can make E, as a...
متن کاملDimensional curvature identities on pseudo-Riemannian geometry
For a fixed n ∈ N, the curvature tensor of a pseudo-Riemannian metric, as well as its covariant derivatives, satisfy certain identities that hold on any manifold of dimension less or equal than n. In this paper, we re-elaborate recent results by Gilkey-Park-Sekigawa regarding these p-covariant curvature identities, for p = 0, 2. To this end, we use the classical theory of natural operations, th...
متن کاملNormal forms for pseudo-Riemannian 2-dimensional metrics whose geodesic flows admit integrals quadratic in momenta
We discuss pseudo-Riemannian metrics on 2-dimensional manifolds such that the geodesic flow admits a nontrivial integral quadratic in velocities. We construct (Theorem 1) local normal forms of such metrics. We show that these metrics have certain useful properties similar to those of Riemannian Liouville metrics, namely: • they admit geodesically equivalent metrics (Theorem 2); • one can use th...
متن کاملSplitting and gluing constructions for geodesically equivalent pseudo-Riemannian metrics
Two metrics g and ḡ are geodesically equivalent, if they share the same (unparameterized) geodesics. We introduce two constructions that allow one to reduce many natural problems related to geodesically equivalent metrics, such as the classification of local normal forms and the Lie problem (the description of projective vector fields), to the case when the (1, 1)−tensor Gj := g ik ḡkj has one ...
