Nonlinear connections and spinor geometry
We present an introduction to the geometry of higher order vector and co–vector bundles (including higher order generalizations of the Finsler geometry and Kaluza– Klein gravity) and review the basic results on Clifford and spinor structures on spaces with generic local anisotropy modeled by anholonomic frames with associated nonlinear connection structures. We emphasize strong arguments for ap...
متن کاملGeometry of Nonlinear Connections
We show that locally diffeomorphic exponential maps can be defined for any second-order differential equation, and give a (possibly nonlinear) covariant derivative for any (possibly nonlinear) connection. We introduce vertically homogeneous connections as the natural correspondents of homogeneous second-order differential equations. We provide significant support for the prospect of studying no...
متن کاملSpecial connections in almost paracontact metric geometry
Two types of properties for linear connections (natural and almost paracontact metric) are discussed in almost paracontact metric geometry with respect to four linear connections: Levi-Civita, canonical (Zamkovoy), Golab and generalized dual. Their relationship is also analyzed with a special view towards their curvature. The particular case of an almost paracosymplectic manifold giv...
متن کاملCommutation Relationships and Curvature Spin-tensors for Extended Spinor Connections
Extended spinor connections associated with composite spin-tensorial bundles are considered. Commutation relationships for covariant and multivariate differentiations and corresponding curvature spin-tensors are derived.
متن کاملFrom Spinor Geometry to Complex General Relativity
An attempt is made of giving a self-contained introduction to holomorphic ideas in general relativity, following work over the last thirty years by several authors. The main topics are complex manifolds, two-component spinor calculus, conformal gravity, α-planes in Minkowski space-time, α-surfaces and twistor geometry, anti-self-dual space-times and Penrose transform, spin-3/2 potentials, heave...
