k-Dirac Operator and Parabolic Geometries [PDF]
The principal group of a Klein geometry has canonical left action on the homogeneous space of the geometry and this action induces action on the spaces of sections of vector bundles over the homogeneous space. This paper is about construction of differential operators invariant with respect to the induced action of the principal group of a particular ...

On Distinguished Curves in Parabolic Geometries
All parabolic geometries, i.e. Cartan geometries with homogeneous model a real generalized flag manifold, admit highly interesting classes of distinguished curves. The geodesics of a projective class of connections on a manifold, conformal circles on conformal Riemannian manifolds, and Chern--Moser chains on CR--manifolds of hypersurface type are ...

Symmetries of parabolic geometries
We generalize the concept of affine locally symmetric spaces for parabolic geometries. We discuss mainly $|1|$--graded geometries and we show some restrictions on their curvature coming from the existence of symmetries. We use the theory of Weyl structures to discuss more interesting $|1|$--graded geometries which can carry a symmetry in a point with ...

Holomorphic Parabolic Geometries and Calabi-Yau Manifolds [PDF]
We prove that the only complex parabolic geometries on Calabi-Yau manifolds are the homogeneous geometries on complex tori. We also classify the complex parabolic geometries on homogeneous compact Kähler manifolds.

Minimal Parabolic Geometries for the Sporadic Groups
Most of the finite simple groups are of Lie type, and these act on geometries called Tits buildings [\textit{J. Tits}, Buildings of spherical type, Lect. Notes Math. 386 (1974; Zbl 0295.20047)]. Analogous geometries for sporadic simple groups were first studied by \textit{F. Buekenhout} [J. Comb. Theory, Ser.

Critical behaviour in parabolic geometries [PDF]
We study two-dimensional systems with boundary curves described by power laws. Using conformal mappings we obtain the correlations at the bulk critical point. Three different classes of behaviour are found and explained by scaling arguments which also apply to higher dimensions.

Complete complex parabolic geometries [PDF]
Complete complex parabolic geometries (including projective connections and conformal connections) are flat and homogeneous. This is the first global theorem on parabolic geometries.

Non-rigid parabolic geometries of Monge type
In this paper we study a novel class of parabolic geometries which we call parabolic geometries of Monge type. These parabolic geometries are defined by special gradings of simple Lie algebras, namely, gradings with the property that their -1 component contains a nonzero co-dimension 1 abelian subspace whose bracket with its complement is non ...
