چکیده
For k 2, we exhibit complete k-curvature homogeneous neutral signature pseudoRiemannian manifolds which are not locally affine homogeneous (and hence not locally homogeneous). All the local scalar Weyl invariants of these manifolds vanish. These manifolds are Ricci flat, Osserman, and Ivanov–Petrova. Mathematics Subject Classification (2000): 53B20.

COMPLETE k-CURVATURE HOMOGENEOUS PSEUDO-RIEMANNIAN MANIFOLDS 0-MODELED ON AN INDECOMPOSIBLE SYMMETRIC SPACE
For k ≥ 2, we exhibit complete k-curvature homogeneous neutral signature pseudo-Riemannian manifolds which are not locally affine homogeneous (and hence not locally homogeneous). The curvature tensor of these manifolds is modeled on that of an indecomposible symmetric space. All the local scalar Weyl curvature invariants of these manifolds vanish. Dedicated to Professor Sekigawa on his 60th bir...
متن کاملACTION OF SEMISIMPLE ISOMERY GROUPS ON SOME RIEMANNIAN MANIFOLDS OF NONPOSITIVE CURVATURE
A manifold with a smooth action of a Lie group G is called G-manifold. In this paper we consider a complete Riemannian manifold M with the action of a closed and connected Lie subgroup G of the isometries. The dimension of the orbit space is called the cohomogeneity of the action. Manifolds having actions of cohomogeneity zero are called homogeneous. A classic theorem about Riemannian manifolds...
متن کاملFlat Homogeneous Pseudo-Riemannian Manifolds
The complete homogeneous pseudo-Riemannian manifolds of constant non-zero curvature were classified up to isometry in 1961 [1]. In the same year, a structure theory [2] was developed for complete fiat homogeneous pseudo-Riemannian manifolds. Here that structure theory is sharpened to a classification. This completes the classification of complete homogeneous pseudo-Riemannian manifolds of arbit...

We study the isometry groups of a family of complete p + 2curvature homogeneous pseudo-Riemannian metrics on R which have neutral signature (3 + 2p, 3 + 2p), and which are 0-curvature modeled on an indecomposible symmetric space.

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.
