چکیده

Let s ≥ 2. We construct Ricci flat pseudo-Riemannian manifolds of signature (2s, s) which are not locally homogeneous but whose curvature tensors never the less exhibit a number of important symmetry properties. They are curvature homogeneous; their curvature tensor is modeled on that of a local symmetric space. They are spacelike Jordan Osserman with a Jacobi operator which is nilpotent of order 3; they are not timelike Jordan Osserman. They are k-spacelike higher order Jordan Osserman for 2 ≤ k ≤ s; they are k-timelike higher order Jordan Osserman for s + 2 ≤ k ≤ 2s, and they are not k-timelike higher order Jordan Osserman for 2 ≤ s ≤ s + 1.

Nilpotent Spacelike Jorden Osserman Pseudo-riemannian Manifolds

Pseudo-Riemannian manifolds of balanced signature which are both spacelike and timelike Jordan Osserman nilpotent of order 2 and of order 3 have been constructed previously. In this short note, we shall construct pseudo-Riemannian manifolds of signature (2s, s) for any s ≥ 2 which are spacelike Jordan Osserman nilpotent of order 3 but which are not timelike Jordan Osserman. Our example and tech...

We exhibit 3 families of complete curvature homogeneous pseudo-Riemannian manifolds which are modeled on irreducible symmetric spaces and which are not locally homogeneous. All of the manifolds have nilpotent Jacobi operators; some of the manifolds are, in addition, Jordan Osserman and Jordan Ivanov-Petrova.

Szabó Osserman Ip Pseudo-riemannian Manifolds

We construct a family of pseudo-Riemannian manifolds so that the skew-symmetric curvature operator, the Jacobi operator, and the Szabó operator have constant eigenvalues on their domains of definition. This provides new and non-trivial examples of Osserman, Szabó, and IP manifolds. We also study when the associated Jordan normal form of these operators is constant. Subject Classification: 53B20.

Four-dimensional Osserman Metrics of Neutral Signature

In the algebraic context, we show that null Osserman, spacelike Osserman, and timelike Osserman are equivalent conditions for a model of signature (2,2). We also classify the null Jordan Osserman models of signature (2,2). In the geometric context, we show that a pseudo-Riemannian manifold of signature (2,2) is null Jordan Osserman if and only if either it has constant sectional curvature or it...

Complete k-Curvature Homogeneous Pseudo-Riemannian Manifolds

For k 2, we exhibit complete k-curvature homogeneous neutral signature pseudoRiemannian manifolds which are not locally affine homogeneous (and hence not locally homogeneous). All the local scalar Weyl invariants of these manifolds vanish. These manifolds are Ricci flat, Osserman, and Ivanov–Petrova. Mathematics Subject Classification (2000): 53B20.
