In this paper, we extend Sasaki metric for tangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold and Sasaki-Mok metric for the frame bundle of a Riemannian manifold [I] to the case of a semi-Riemannian vector bundle over a semi- Riemannian manifold. In fact, if E is a semi-Riemannian vector bundle over a semi-Riemannian manifold M, then by using an arbitrary (linear) connection on E, we can make E, as a...

Let X and B be two Riemannian manifolds with π : X → B being a Riemannian submersion. Let H be the corresponding horizontal distribution, which is perpendicular to the tangent bundle of the fibres of π : X → B. Then X (just considered as a differentiable manifold), together with the distribution H, forms a so-called Carnot-Caratheodory space [1], when the Riemannian metric of X is restricted to...

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...

Hadamard (or complete $CAT(0)$) spaces are complete, non-positive curvature, metric spaces. Here, we prove a nonlinear ergodic theorem for continuous non-expansive semigroup in these spaces as well as a strong convergence theorem for the commutative case. Our results extend the standard non-linear ergodic theorems for non-expansive maps on real Hilbert spaces, to non-expansive maps on Ha...

The notion the spread of a matrix was first introduced fifty years ago in algebra. In this article, we define the spread of the shape operator by applying the same idea to submanifolds of Riemannian manifolds. We prove that the spread of shape operator is a conformal invariant for any submanifold in a Riemannian manifold. Then, we prove that, for a compact submanifold of a Riemannian manifold, ...
