If ∇ is a torsionless connection on the tangent bundle of a manifold M the Weyl curvature W is the part of the curvature in kernel of the Ricci contraction. We give a coordinate free proof of Weyl’s result that W vanishes if and only if (M,∇) is (locally) diffeomorphic to RP with ∇, when transported to RP, in the projective class of ∇LC , the Levi-Civita connection of the Fubini–Study metric on...
