On the k-nullity foliations in Finsler geometry
Here, a Finsler manifold $(M,F)$ is considered with corresponding curvature tensor, regarded as $2$-forms on the bundle of non-zero tangent vectors. Certain subspaces of the tangent spaces of $M$ determined by the curvature are introduced and called $k$-nullity foliations of the curvature operator. It is shown that if the dimension of foliation is constant, then the distribution is involutive...
متن کاملACTION OF SEMISIMPLE ISOMERY GROUPS ON SOME RIEMANNIAN MANIFOLDS OF NONPOSITIVE CURVATURE
A manifold with a smooth action of a Lie group G is called G-manifold. In this paper we consider a complete Riemannian manifold M with the action of a closed and connected Lie subgroup G of the isometries. The dimension of the orbit space is called the cohomogeneity of the action. Manifolds having actions of cohomogeneity zero are called homogeneous. A classic theorem about Riemannian manifolds...
متن کاملFoliations and Chern-Heinz inequalities
We extend the Chern-Heinz inequalities about mean curvature and scalar curvature of graphs of C2-functions to leaves of transversally oriented codimension one C2-foliations of Riemannian manifolds. That extends partially Salavessa’s work on mean curvature of graphs and generalize results of Barbosa-Kenmotsu-Oshikiri [3] and Barbosa-GomesSilveira [2] about foliations of 3-dimensional Riemannian ...
متن کاملIdentification of Riemannian foliations on the tangent bundle via SODE structure
The geometry of a system of second order differential equations is the geometry of a semispray, which is a globally defined vector field on TM. The metrizability of a given semispray is of special importance. In this paper, the metric associated with the semispray S is applied in order to study some types of foliations on the tangent bundle which are compatible with SODE structure. Indeed, suff...
متن کاملCommutative curvature operators over four-dimensional generalized symmetric spaces
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.
