چکیده
In this paper we consider the harmonicity of the 1-parameter group of local infinitesimal transformations associated to a vector field on a (pseudo-) Riemannian manifold to study this class of vector fields, which we call harmonic-Killing vector fields.

Harmonic-Killing vector fields on Kähler manifolds
In a previous paper we have considered the harmonicity of local infinitesimal transformations associated to a vector field on a (pseudo)-Riemannian manifold to characterise intrinsi-cally a class of vector fields that we have called harmonic-Killing vector fields. In this paper we extend this study to other properties, such as the pluriharmonicity and the α-pluriharmonicity (α harmonic 2-form) ...
متن کاملScalar Curvature, Killing Vector Fields and Harmonic One-forms on Compact Riemannian Manifolds
It is well known that no non-trivial Killing vector field exists on a compact Riemannian manifold of negative Ricci curvature; analogously, no non-trivial harmonic one-form exists on a compact manifold of positive Ricci curvature. One can consider the following, more general, problem. By reducing the assumption on the Ricci curvature to one on the scalar curvature, such vanishing theorems canno...
متن کاملSome geometrical properties of the oscillator group
We consider the oscillator group equipped with a biinvariant Lorentzian metric. Some geometrical properties of this space and the harmonicity properties of left-invariant vector fields on this space are determined. In some cases, all these vector fields are critical points for the energy functional restricted to vector fields. Left-invariant vector fields defining harmonic maps are...
متن کاملAnalytic fields on compact balanced Hermitian manifolds
On a Hermitian manifold we construct a symmetric (1, 1)tensor H using the torsion and the curvature of the Chern connection. On a compact balanced Hermitian manifold we find necessary and sufficient conditions in terms of the tensor H for a harmonic 1-form to be analytic and for an analytic 1form to be harmonic. We prove that if H is positive definite then the first Betti number b1 = 0 and the ...
متن کاملHarmonicity and Minimality of Vector Fields on Lorentzian Lie Groups
We consider four-dimensional lie groups equipped with left-invariant Lorentzian Einstein metrics, and determine the harmonicity properties of vector fields on these spaces. In some cases, all these vector fields are critical points for the energy functional restricted to vector fields. We also classify vector fields defining harmonic maps, and calculate explicitly the energy of t...
