Contact metric manifolds with large automorphism group and (κ, µ)-spaces
We discuss the classifiation of simply connected, complete (κ, µ)-spaces from the point of view of homogeneous spaces. In particular, we exhibit new models of (κ, µ)-spaces having Boeckx invariant -1.

Contact manifolds, Lagrangian Grassmannians and PDEs
In this paper we review a geometric approach to PDEs. We mainly focus on scalar PDEs in n independent variables and one dependent variable of order one and two, by insisting on the underlying (2n + 1)-dimensional contact manifold and the so-called ...

A note on the uniqueness of the canonical connection of a naturally reductive space [PDF]
We extend the result in J. Reine Angew. Math. 664, 29-53, to the non-compact case. Namely, we prove that the canonical connection on a simply connected and irreducible naturally reductive space is unique, provided the space is not a sphere, a compact Lie

On the Cartan Model of the Canonical Vector Bundles over Grassmannians
We give a representation of canonical vector bundles over Grassmannian manifolds as non-compact affine symmetric spaces as well as their Cartan model in the group of the Euclidean motions.Comment: 6 ...

Corrigendum for "A geometric proof of the Karpelevich-Mostow theorem" [PDF]
Corollary 2.3 in our paper "A geometric proof of the Karpelevich-Mostow theorem", Bull. Lond. Math. Soc. 41 (2009), no. 4, 634-638, is false. Here we give a counterexample and show how to avoid the use of this corollary to give a simpler proof of ...

The existence of light-like homogeneous geodesics in homogeneous Lorentzian manifolds
In previous papers, a fundamental affine method for studying homogeneous geodesics was developed. Using this method and elementary differential topology it was proved that any homogeneous affine manifold and in particular any homogeneous pseudo ...

On common zeros of eigenfunctions of the Laplace operator
We consider the eigenfunctions of the Laplace operator $\Delta $ on a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension $n$. For $M$ homogeneous with irreducible isotropy representation and for a fixed eigenvalue of $\Delta $ we find the average number of common ...

Geodesics and magnetic curves in the 4-dim almost Kähler model space F4
We study geodesics and magnetic trajectories in the model space F4{{\rm{F}}}^{4}. The space F4{{\rm{F}}}^{4} is isometric to the 4-dim simply connected Riemannian 3-symmetric space due to Kowalski. We describe the solvable Lie group model of F4{{\rm{F}}}^

Examples of naturally reductive pseudo-Riemannian Lie groups
We provide examples of naturally reductive pseudo-Riemannian spaces, in particular an example of a naturally reductive pseudo-Riemannian 2-step nilpotent Lie group $(N, _N)$, such that $_N$ is invariant under a left action and for which the center is ...
