Metric connections in projective differential geometry
We search for Riemannian metrics whose Levi-Civita connection belongs to a given projective class. Following Sinjukov and Mikes, we show that such metrics correspond precisely to suitably positive solutions of a certain projectively invariant finite-type

Almost contact complex Riemannian manifolds, also known as almost contact B-metric manifolds, are equipped with Ricci–Bourguignon-like almost solitons.

The principle of equivalence and projective structure in space-times [PDF]
This paper discusses the extent to which one can determine the space-time metric from a knowledge of a certain subset of the (unparametrised) geodesics of its Levi-Civita connection, that is, from the experimental evidence of the equivalence principle ...

Absolute Configuration Determination with Electronically Enhanced Vibrational Circular Dichroism
We introduce a practical workflow for simulating vibrational circular dichroism spectra enhanced by vibronic coupling. We achieve qualitative agreement with experiment for Co(II) and Ni(II) spartein complexes, circumventing inaccuracies in theoretical excitation energy predictions.

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

Gallot-Tanno Theorem for closed incomplete pseudo-Riemannian manifolds and applications [PDF]
We extend the Gallot-Tanno Theorem to closed pseudo-Riemannian manifolds. It is done by showing that if the cone over a manifold admits a parallel symmetric $(0,2)-$tensor then it is Riemannian.

Pair of associated Schouten-van Kampen connections adapted to an almost contact B-metric structure
There are introduced and studied a pair of associated Schouten-van Kampen affine connections adapted to the contact distribution and an almost contact B-metric structure generated by the pair of associated B-metrics and their Levi-Civita connections.

Degree theory for 4‐dimensional asymptotically conical gradient expanding solitons
Abstract We develop a new degree theory for 4‐dimensional, asymptotically conical gradient expanding solitons. Our theory implies the existence of gradient expanding solitons that are asymptotic to any given cone over S3$S^3$ with non‐negative scalar curvature. We also obtain a similar existence result for cones whose link is diffeomorphic to S3/Γ$S^3/\

Gravitational interpretation of the Hitchin equations
By referring to theorems of Donaldson and Hitchin, we exhibit a rigorous AdS/CFT-type correspondence between classical 2+1 dimensional vacuum general relativity theory on S x R and SO(3) Hitchin theory (regarded as a classical conformal field theory) on ...

Non-natural metrics on the tangent bundle [PDF]
Natural metrics provide a way to induce a metric on the tangent bundle from the metric on its base manifold. The most studied type is the Sasaki metric, which applies the base metric separately to the vertical and horizontal components.
