In this paper we make the first steps to a classification of (pseudo-) Riemannian manifolds which are not locally homogeneous but their Levi–Civita connections are homogeneous. The full classification is given for dimension n = 2; in higher dimensions we prove some substantial partial results.

Arithmetic Levi–Cività connection [PDF]
This paper is part of a series of papers where an arithmetic analogue of classical differential geometry is being developed. In this arithmetic differential geometry functions are replaced by integer numbers, derivations are replaced by Fermat quotient operators, and connections (respectively curvature) are replaced by certain adelic (respectively ...

Local conformal symmetry in non-Riemannian geometry and the origin of physical scales
We introduce an extension of the Standard Model and General Relativity built upon the principle of local conformal invariance, which represents a generalization of a previous work by Bars, Steinhardt and Turok. This is naturally realized by adopting as a

The Levi-Civita connection and Chern connections for cocycle deformations of Kähler manifolds
We consider unitary cocycle deformations of covariant $\ast$-differential calculi. We prove that complex structures, holomorphic bimodules and Chern connections on the deformed calculus are twists of their untwisted counterparts. Moreover, for cocycle deformations of a class of classical Kähler manifolds, the Levi-Civita connection on the space of one ...

Intrinsic Optimal Control for Mechanical Systems on Lie Group
The intrinsic infinite horizon optimal control problem of mechanical systems on Lie group is investigated. The geometric optimal control problem is built on the intrinsic coordinate-free model, which is provided with Levi-Civita connection.

Riemannian gradient and Levi-Civita connection for fixed-rank matrices
We provide formulas for Riemannian gradient and Levi-Civita connection for a family of metrics on fixed-rank matrix manifolds, based on nonconstant metrics on Stiefel manifolds.

Levi-Civita connection on the irreducible quantum flag manifolds
We classify covariant metrics (in the sense of Beggs and Majid) on a class of quantum homogeneous spaces. In particular, our classification implies the existence of a unique (up to scalar) quantum symmetric covariant metric on the Heckenberger--Kolb calculi for the quantized irreducible flag manifolds. Moreover, we prove the existence and uniqueness of
