Abstract:

‎In this paper we first obtain the non-Riemannian Randers metrics of Douglas type on two-step homogeneous nilmanifolds of dimension five‎. ‎Then we explicitly give the flag curvature formulae and the $S$-curvature formulae for the Randers metrics of Douglas type on these spaces‎. ‎Moreover‎, ‎we prove that the only simply connected five-dimensional two-step homogeneous Randers nilmanifolds of Douglas type which are Ricci-quadratic have a three-dimensional centre‎. ‎We also prove that all simply connected five-dimensional two-step homogeneous Randers nilmanifolds of Douglas type are never weakly symmetric‎. ‎The existence of homogeneous Randers spaces of Douglas type with vanishing $S$-curvature which are never g.o‎. ‎Finsler spaces is also proved and some examples of locally projectively flat Finsler spaces are also obtained.

Expanding Maps on Infra-nilmanifolds of Homogeneous Type

In this paper we investigate expanding maps on infra-nilmanifolds. Such manifolds are obtained as a quotient E\L, where L is a connected and simply connected nilpotent Lie group and E is a torsion-free uniform discrete subgroup of LoC, with C a compact subgroup of Aut(L). We show that if the Lie algebra of L is homogeneous (i.e., graded and generated by elements of degree 1), then the correspon...

Homogeneous Geodesics of Left Invariant Randers Metrics on a Three-Dimensional Lie Group

In this paper we study homogeneous geodesics in a three-dimensional connected Lie group G equipped with a left invariant Randers metric and investigates the set of all homogeneous geodesics. We show that there is a three-dimensional unimodular Lie group with a left invariant non-Berwaldian Randers metric which admits exactly one homogeneous geodesic through the identity element. Mathematics Sub...

Deformation of 2-Step Nilmanifolds with Abelian Complex Structures

We develop deformation theory for abelian invariant complex structures on a nilmanifold, and prove that in this case the invariance property is preserved by the Kuranishi process. A purely algebraic condition characterizes the deformations leading again to abelian structures, and we prove that such deformations are unobstructed. Various examples illustrate the resulting theory, and the behavior...

Geodesic Conjugacy in Two - Step Nilmanifolds

Two Riemannian manifolds are said to have C-conjugate geodesic flows if there exist an C diffeomorphism between their unit tangent bundles which intertwines the geodesic flows. We obtain a number of rigidity results for the geodesic flows on compact 2-step Riemannian nilmanifolds: For generic 2-step nilmanifolds the geodesic flow is C rigid. For special classes of 2-step nilmanifolds, we show t...

2 00 5 Resolutions of homogeneous bundles on P 2

Homogeneous bundles on P2 = SL(3)/P can be described by representations of the parabolic subgroup P . In 1966 Ramanan proved that if ρ is an irreducible representation of P then the induced bundle Eρ on P 2 is simple and even stable (see [Ram]). Since P is not a reductive group, there is a lot of indecomposable reducible representations of P and to classify homogeneous bundles on P2 and among t...

A theorem on homogeneous functions and extended Cobb-Douglas forms.

A form for homogeneous functions is presented which shows them to be a very simple extension of the wellknown Cobb-Douglas functions with similar properties in production (and distribution) economics. This form thus suggests new possibilities for interpreting a wide variety of empirical and theoretical results in economics; it also provides contact with developments in other fields, such as inf...
