Non-reductive spaces with equiaffine connections of nonzero curvature [PDF]
The introduction of this article states the object of our investigation which is structures on homogeneous spaces. The problem of establishing links between the curvature and the structure of a manifold is one of the important problems of geometry.

Geometry of left-invariant Randers metric on the Heisenberg groups [PDF]
Purpose – In this paper, we consider the Heisenberg groups which play a crucial role in both geometry and theoretical physics. Design/methodology/approach – In the first part, we retrieve the geometry of left-invariant Randers metrics on the Heisenberg ...

Conflict between some higher-order curvature invariant terms
A viable quantum theory does not allow curvature invariant terms of different higher orders to be accommodated in the gravitational action. We show that there is indeed a conflict between the curvature squared and Gauss-Bonnet squared terms from the ...

Some remarks on invariant lightlike submanifolds of indefinite Sasakian manifold [PDF]
Purpose – The author considers an invariant lightlike submanifold M, whose transversal bundle tr(TM) is flat, in an indefinite Sasakian manifold M¯(c) of constant φ¯-sectional curvature c. Under some geometric conditions, the author demonstrates that c=1,

Homogeneous spaces of unsolvable Lie groups that do not admit equiaffine connections of nonzero curvature [PDF]
An important subclass among homogeneous spaces is formed by isotropically-faithful homogeneous spaces, in particular, this subclass contains all homogeneous spaces admitting invariant affine connection.

The commutative nonassociative algebra of metric curvature tensors
The space of tensors of metric curvature type on a Euclidean vector space carries a two-parameter family of orthogonally invariant commutative nonassociative multiplications invariant with respect to the symmetric bilinear form determined by the metric ...

Pseudoparallel invariant submanifolds of Kenmotsu manifolds
In this paper, we consider pseudoparallel invariant submanifolds, a particular class of invariant submanifolds of Kenmotsu manifolds, on $W_8$ curvature tensor and investigate some of their basic characterizations, such as $W_8$ pseudoparallel, $W_8$-2 ...

Generalized disformal invariance of cosmological perturbations with second-order field derivatives
We investigate how the comoving curvature and tensor perturbations are transformed under the generalized disformal transformation with the second-order covariant derivatives of the scalar field, where the free functions depend on the fundamental elements

CURVATURE APPROXIMATION FROM PARABOLIC SECTORS
We propose an invariant three-point curvature approximation for plane curves based on the arc of a parabolic sector, and we analyze how closely this approximation is to the true curvature of the curve.

Pinching Theorems for a Vanishing C-Bochner Curvature Tensor
The main purpose of this article is to construct inequalities between a main intrinsic invariant (the normalized scalar curvature) and an extrinsic invariant (the Casorati curvature) for some submanifolds in a Sasakian manifold with a zero C-Bochner ...
