J an 2 00 5 Curvature of ( Special ) Almost Hermitian Manifolds
نویسنده
چکیده
We study the curvature of almost Hermitian manifolds and their special analogues via intrinsic torsion and representation theory. By deriving different forumlæ for the skew-symmetric part of the ∗-Ricci curvature, we find that some of these contributions are dependent on the approach used, and for the almost Hermitian case we obtain tables that differ from those of Falcitelli, Farinola & Salamon. We show how the exterior algebra may used to explain some of these variations. Mathematics Subject Classification (2000): Primary 53C55; Secondary 53C10, 53C15.

Torsion in Almost Kähler Geometry *
We study almost Kähler manifolds whose curvature tensor satisfies the second curvature condition of Gray (shortly AK 2). This condition is interpreted in terms of the first canonical Hermitian connection. It turns out that this condition forces the torsion of this connection to be parallel in directions orthogonal to the Kähler nullity of the almost complex structure. We prove a local structure...
متن کاملA connection with parallel torsion on almost hypercomplex manifolds with Hermitian and anti-Hermitian metrics
Almost hypercomplex manifolds with Hermitian and anti-Hermitian metrics are considered. A linear connection D is introduced such that the structure of these manifolds is parallel with respect to D. Of special interest is the class of the locally conformally equivalent manifolds to the hyper-Kähler manifolds of the investigated type and the case when the torsion of D is D-parallel. Curvature pro...
متن کاملGray Curvature Identities for Almost Contact Metric Manifolds
The aim of this research is the study of Gray curvature identities, introduced by Alfred Gray in [7] for the class of almost hermitian manifolds. As known till now, there is no equivalent for the class of almost contact manifolds. For this purpose we use the Boohby-Wang fibration and the warped manifolds construction in order to establish which identities could be satisfied by an almost contact...
متن کاملA General Schwarz Lemma for Almost-hermitian Manifolds
We prove a version of Yau’s Schwarz Lemma for general almost-complex manifolds equipped with almost-Hermitian metrics. This requires an extension to this setting of the Laplacian comparison theorem. As an application we show that the product of two almost-complex manifolds does not admit any complete almost-Hermitian metric with bisectional curvature bounded between two negative constants that ...
متن کاملPara-Kahler tangent bundles of constant para-holomorphic sectional curvature
We characterize the natural diagonal almost product (locally product) structures on the tangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold. We obtain the conditions under which the tangent bundle endowed with the determined structure and with a metric of natural diagonal lift type is a Riemannian almost product (locally product) manifold, or an (almost) para-Hermitian manifold. We find the natural diagona...
