The Levi-Civita connections of manifolds with prescribed optical geometries
We explicitly derive the Christoffel symbols in terms of adapted frame fields for the Levi-Civita connection of a Lorentzian $n$-manifold $(M, g)$, equipped with a prescribed optical geometry of Kähler-Sasaki type. The formulas found in this paper have several important applications, such as determining the geometric invariants of Lorentzian manifolds ...

Phong‐Rodrigues Extrinsic Vector‐Field Processing
Abstract We introduce a new extrinsic discretization of tangent vector fields on triangle meshes that is continuous, with bounded derivatives that are continuous almost everywhere, supporting pointwise evaluation and integration of differential operators.

Generalized Sasakian-Space-Forms with Projective Curvature Tensor
The object of the present paper is to study Ф-projectively flat generalized Sasakian-space-forms, projectively locally symmetric generalized Sasakian-space-forms and projectively locally Ф-symmetric generalized Sasakian-space-forms.

City of God and the Duty of Just Memory
Abstract In a recent essay, Richard Miller claims that Augustine presumes a duty to remember justly in his City of God. However, Miller's brief reference to a presumed duty of “just memory” does not fully explain how Augustine conceptualizes this duty or how it relates to his theological concerns.

In this article, we consider statistical submanifolds of Kenmotsu statistical manifolds of constant ϕ-sectional curvature. For such submanifold, we investigate curvature properties. We establish some inequalities involving the normalized δ-Casorati

Palatini quadratic gravity: spontaneous breaking of gauged scale symmetry and inflation
We study quadratic gravity $$R^2+R_{[\mu \nu ]}^2$$ R 2 + R [ μ ν ] 2 in the Palatini formalism where the connection and the metric are independent. This action has a gauged scale symmetry (also known as Weyl gauge symmetry) of Weyl gauge field $$v_\mu =

Metric-affine bumblebee gravity: classical aspects
We consider the metric-affine formulation of bumblebee gravity, derive the field equations, and show that the connection can be written as Levi-Civita of a disformally related metric in which the bumblebee field determines the disformal part.

Nonassociative differential geometry and gravity with non-geometric fluxes
We systematically develop the metric aspects of nonassociative differential geometry tailored to the parabolic phase space model of constant locally non-geometric closed string vacua, and use it to construct preliminary steps towards a nonassociative ...

Sub-Lorentzian Geometry of Curves and Surfaces in a Lorentzian Lie Group
We consider the sub-Lorentzian geometry of curves and surfaces in the Lie group E1,1. Firstly, as an application of Riemannian approximants scheme, we give the definition of Lorentzian approximants scheme for E1,1 which is a sequence of Lorentzian ...
