B. Fedosov has given a simple and very natural construction of a deformation quantization for any symplectic manifold, using a flat connection on the bundle of formal Weyl algebras associated to the tangent bundle of a symplectic manifold. The connection is obtained by affinizing, nonlinearizing, and iteratively flattening a given torsion free symplectic connection. In this paper, a classical a...

We study the quarter-symmetric metric A-connection on a cosymplectic manifold. Observing linearly independent curvature tensors with respect to A-connection, we construct Weyl projective tensor In this way, obtain new conditions for manifold be projectively flat. At end of paper, define η-Einstein manifolds θ-th kind and prove that they coincide

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.

The residual stress field of a nonlinear elastic solid with a spherically symmetric distribution of point defects is obtained explicitly using methods from differential geometry. The material manifold of a solid with distributed point defects—where the body is stress-free—is a flat Weyl manifold, i.e. a manifold with an affine connection that has non-metricity with vanishing traceless part, but...

in the first part of this paper, some theorems are given for a riemannian manifold with semi-symmetric metric connection. in the second part of it, some special vector fields, for example, torse-forming vector fields, recurrent vector fields and concurrent vector fields are examined in this manifold. we obtain some properties of this manifold having the vectors mentioned above.

Abstract. A curvature-type tensor invariant called quaternionic contact (qc) conformal curvature is defined on a qc manifolds in terms of the curvature and torsion of the Biquard connection. The discovered tensor is similar to the Weyl conformal curvature in Riemannian geometry and to the Chern-Moser invariant in CR geometry. It is shown that a qc manifold is locally qc conformal to the standar...

of the Dissertation Self-Dual Metrics on 4-Manifolds by Mustafa Kalafat Doctor of Philosophy in Mathematics Stony Brook University 2007 Under a vanishing hypothesis, Donaldson and Friedman proved that the connected sum of two self-dual Riemannian 4-Manifolds is again self-dual. Here we prove that the same result can be extended over to the positive scalar curvature case. Secondly we give an exa...

In this paper, we give characterizations of a twisted product manifold to be a warped product manifold by imposing certain conditions on the Weyl conformal curvature tensor and the Weyl projective tensor. We also find similar results for multiply twisted product manifolds.
