چکیده

There is a 14-dimensional algebraic curvature tensor which is Jacobi–Tsankov (i.e. J (x)J (y) = J (y)J (x) for all x, y) but which is not 2-step Jacobi nilpotent (i.e. J (x)J (y) 6= 0 for some x, y); the minimal dimension where this is possible is 14. We determine the group of symmetries of this tensor and show that it is geometrically realizable by a wide variety of pseudo-Riemannian manifolds which are geodesically complete and have vanishing scalar invariants. Some of the manifolds in the family are symmetric spaces. Some are 0-curvature homogeneous but not locally homogeneous.

Pseudo-riemannian Manifolds with Commuting Jacobi Operators

We study the geometry of pseudo-Riemannian manifolds which are Jacobi–Tsankov, i.e. J (x)J (y) = J (y)J (x) for all x, y. We also study manifolds which are 2-step Jacobi nilpotent, i.e. J (x)J (y) = 0 for all x, y.

Commutative curvature operators over four-dimensional generalized symmetric spaces

Commutative properties of four-dimensional generalized symmetric pseudo-Riemannian manifolds were considered. Specially, in this paper, we studied Skew-Tsankov and Jacobi-Tsankov conditions in 4-dimensional pseudo-Riemannian generalized symmetric manifolds.

We exhibit 3 families of complete curvature homogeneous pseudo-Riemannian manifolds which are modeled on irreducible symmetric spaces and which are not locally homogeneous. All of the manifolds have nilpotent Jacobi operators; some of the manifolds are, in addition, Jordan Osserman and Jordan Ivanov-Petrova.

Curvature Homogeneous Spacelike Jordan Osserman Pseudo-riemannian Manifolds

Let s ≥ 2. We construct Ricci flat pseudo-Riemannian manifolds of signature (2s, s) which are not locally homogeneous but whose curvature tensors never the less exhibit a number of important symmetry properties. They are curvature homogeneous; their curvature tensor is modeled on that of a local symmetric space. They are spacelike Jordan Osserman with a Jacobi operator which is nilpotent of ord...
