Structure of the curvature tensor on symplectic spinors

چکیده
We study symplectic manifolds (M, ω) equipped with a symplectic torsion-free affine (also called Fedosov) connection ∇ and admitting a metaplectic structure. Let S be the so called symplectic spinor bundle and let R be the curvature tensor field of the symplectic spinor covariant derivative ∇ associated to the Fedosov connection ∇. It is known that the space of symplectic spinor valued exterior differential 2-forms, Γ(M, ∧2 T M ⊗ S), decomposes into three invariant spaces with respect to the structure group, which is the metaplectic group Mp(2l,R) in this case. For a symplectic spinor field φ ∈ Γ(M,S), we compute explicitly the projections of Rφ ∈ Γ(M, ∧2 T M⊗S) onto the three mentioned invariant spaces in terms of the symplectic Ricci and symplectic Weyl curvature tensor fields of the connection ∇. Using this decomposition, we derive a complex of first order differential operators provided the Weyl tensor of the Fedosov connection is trivial. Math. Subj. Class.: 53C07, 53D05, 58J10.

Fedosov Supermanifolds: Basic Properties and the Difference in Even and Odd Cases
We study basic properties of supermanifolds endowed with an even (odd) symplectic structure and a connection respecting this symplectic structure. Such supermanifolds can be considered as generalization of Fedosov manifolds to the supersymmetric case. Choosing an appropriate definition of inverse (second-rank) tensor fields on supermanifolds we consider the symmetry behavior of tensor fields as...
متن کاملSymmetric symplectic spaces with Ricci-type curvature
We determine the isomorphism classes of symmetric symplectic manifolds of dimension at least 4 which are connected, simply-connected and have a curvature tensor which has only one non-vanishing irreducible component – the Ricci tensor.
متن کاملSymmetric curvature tensor
Recently, we have used the symmetric bracket of vector fields, and developed the notion of the symmetric derivation. Using this machinery, we have defined the concept of symmetric curvature. This concept is natural and is related to the notions divergence and Laplacian of vector fields. This concept is also related to the derivations on the algebra of symmetric forms which has been discu...
متن کاملSpacetimes admitting quasi-conformal curvature tensor
The object of the present paper is to study spacetimes admitting quasi-conformal curvature tensor. At first we prove that a quasi-conformally flat spacetime is Einstein and hence it is of constant curvature and the energy momentum tensor of such a spacetime satisfying Einstein's field equation with cosmological constant is covariant constant. Next, we prove that if the perfect flui...
متن کاملA construction of symplectic connections through reduction
We give an elementary construction of symplectic connections through reduction. This provides an elegant description of a class of symmetric spaces and gives examples of symplectic connections with Ricci type curvature, which are not locally symmetric; the existence of such symplectic connections was unknown. Key-words: Marsden-Weinstein reduction, symplectic connections, symmetric spaces MSC 2...
