Lorentzian homogeneous structures with indecomposable holonomy

open access: yesJournal of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 113, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract For a Lorentzian homogeneous space, we study how algebraic conditions on the isotropy group affect the geometry and curvature of the homogeneous space. More specifically, we prove that a Lorentzian locally homogeneous space is locally isometric to a plane wave if it admits an Ambrose–Singer connection with indecomposable, non‐irreducible ...

(In)equivalence of metric-affine and metric effective field theories

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2022
In a geometrical approach to gravity the metric and the (gravitational) connection can be independent and one deals with metric-affine theories. We construct the most general action of metric-affine effective field theories, including a generic matter ...

Geometry of Tangent Poisson–Lie Groups

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
Let G be a Poisson–Lie group equipped with a left invariant contravariant pseudo-Riemannian metric. There are many ways to lift the Poisson structure on G to the tangent bundle TG of G.

Adaptive Twisting Metamaterials

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 21, 13 April 2026.
This work introduces torque‐controlled twisting metamaterials as a transformative platform for adaptive crashworthiness. By combining multiscale predictive modeling with experimental validation on additively manufactured gyroids, it demonstrates tunable stiffness, collapse stress, and energy absorption.

Emergence of Riemannian geometry and the massive graviton

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2014
We overview a new mechanism[14] whereby classical Riemannian geometry emerges out of the differential structure on quantum spacetime, as extension data for the classical algebra of differential forms.

Inequalities on Sasakian Statistical Manifolds in Terms of Casorati Curvatures

open access: yesMathematics, 2018
A statistical structure is considered as a generalization of a pair of a Riemannian metric and its Levi-Civita connection. With a pair of conjugate connections ∇ and ∇ * in the Sasakian statistical structure, we provide the ...

The Einstein Action for Algebras of Matrix Valued Functions - Toy Models

open access: yes, 1998
Two toy models are considered within the framework of noncommutative differential geometry. In the first one, the Einstein action of the Levi-Civita connection is computed for the algebra of matrix valued functions on a torus.

Levi-Civita connection for $SU_q(2)$

open access: yes, 2020
We prove that the $4D_\pm$ calculi on the quantum group $SU_q(2)$ satisfy a metric-independent sufficient condition for the existence of a unique bicovariant Levi-Civita connection corresponding to every bi-invariant pseudo-Riemannian metric.

On Gauge‐Invariant Entire Function Regulators and UV Finiteness in Non Local Quantum Field Theory

open access: yesAnnalen der Physik, Volume 538, Issue 4, April 2026.
We regulate the theory with an entire function of the covariant operator F(□/M∗2)$F(\square /M^{2}_{*})$. In the perturbative vacuum this becomes a momentum‐space factor F(−p2/M∗2)$F(-p^{2}/M^{2}_{*})$ that exponentially damps high momenta, most transparent after Wick rotation, rendering loop integrals UV finite.

New Conformal Invariants in Absolute Parallelism Geometry

open access: yes, 2016
The aim of the present paper is to investigate conformal changes in absolute parallelism geometry. We find out some new conformal invariants in terms of the Weitzenb\"ock connection and the Levi-Civita connection of an absolute parallelism space.Comment:
