Berwald metrics constructed by Chevalley’s polynomials
Berwald metrics are particular Finsler metrics which still have linear Berwald connections. Their complete classification is established in an earlier work, [Sz1], of this author. The main tools in these classification are the Simons-Berger holonomy theorem and the Weyl-group theory. It turnes out that any Berwald metric is a perturbed-Cartesian product of Riemannian, Minkowski, and such non-Ri...
متن کاملGeometry of product complex Cartan manifolds
In this paper we consider the product of two complex Cartan manifolds, the outcome being a class of product complex Cartan spaces. Then, we study the relationships between the geometric objects of a product complex Cartan space and its components, (e.g. Chern-Cartan complex nonlinear connection, Cartan tensors). By means of these, we establish the necessary and sufficient conditions under which...
متن کاملOn Distinguished Curves in Parabolic Geometries
All parabolic geometries, i.e. Cartan geometries with homogeneous model a real generalized flag manifold, admit highly interesting classes of distinguished curves. The geodesics of a projective class of connections on a manifold, conformal circles on conformal Riemannian manifolds, and Chern– Moser chains on CR–manifolds of hypersurface type are typical examples. We show that such distinguished...
متن کاملGeometry of Maurer-Cartan Elements on Complex Manifolds
The semi-classical data attached to stacks of algebroids in the sense of Kashiwara and Kontsevich are Maurer-Cartan elements on complex manifolds, which we call extended Poisson structures as they generalize holomorphic Poisson structures. A canonical Lie algebroid is associated to each Maurer-Cartan element. We study the geometry underlying these Maurer-Cartan elements in the light of Lie alge...
متن کاملThe conformal analog of Calabi-Yau manifolds
This survey intends to introduce the reader to holonomy theory of Cartan connections. Special attention is given to the normal conformal Cartan connection, uniquely defined for a class of conformally equivalent metrics, and to its holonomy group the ’conformal holonomy group’. We explain the relation between conformal holonomy group and existence of Einstein metrics in the conformal class as we...
