Riemann curvature tensor on RCD spaces and possible applications
We show that, on every RCD space, it is possible to introduce, by a distributional-like approach, a Riemann curvature tensor.Since, after the works of Petrunin and Zhang–Zhu, we know that finite dimensional Alexandrov spaces are RCD spaces, our construction applies in particular to the Alexandrov setting.

Normal paracontact metric space form on $W_0$-curvature tensor
In this article, normal paracontact metric space forms are investigated on $W_0$-curvature tensor. Characterizations of normal paracontact space forms are obtained on $W_0$-curvature tensor.

Singular Values of Riemann Curvature Tensor [PDF]
We introduce the concept of singular values for the Riemann curvature tensor, a central mathematical tool in Einstein's theory of general relativity. We study the properties related to the singular values, and investigate five typical cases to show its relationship to the Ricci scalar and other invariants.

The Jordan algebras of Riemann, Weyl and curvature compatible tensors [PDF]
Given the Riemann, or the Weyl, or a generalized curvature tensor K, a symmetric tensor $b_{ij}$ is named `compatible' with the curvature tensor if $b_i{}^m K_{jklm} + b_j{}^m K_{kilm} + b_k{}^m K_{ijlm} = 0$. Amongst showing known and new properties, we prove that they form a special Jordan algebra, i.e. the symmetrized product of K-compatible tensors

Field Equations for Lovelock Gravity: An Alternative Route
We present an alternative derivation of the gravitational field equations for Lovelock gravity starting from Newton’s law, which is closer in spirit to the thermodynamic description of gravity. As a warm up exercise, we have explicitly demonstrated that,

Higher-derivative couplings and torsional Riemann curvature [PDF]
Using the most general higher-derivative field redefinitions for the closed spacetime manifolds, we show that the tree-level couplings of the metric, B-field and dilaton at orders α′2 and α′3 that have been recently found by the T-duality, can be written

The Riemann tensor, the metric tensor, and curvature collineations in general relativity [PDF]
The equation xμνRμ λαβ+xμλRμ ναβ = 0, where xμν and Rμ ναβ are the components of an arbitrary symmetric tensor and of the Riemann tensor formed from the metric tensor gμν, is trivially satisfied by xμν = φgμν. Nontrivial solutions are important in various areas of general relativity such as in the study of curvature collineations, and also in the study

The spectral geometry of the Riemann curvature tensor [PDF]
Let E be a natural operator associated to the curvature tensor of a pseudo-Riemannian manifold. This survey article studies when the spectrum, or more generally the real Jordan normal form, of E is constant on the natural domain of definition. It deals with results for the Jacobi operator, the higher order Jacobi operator, the Szabo operator, and the ...
