We give a necessary and sufficient condition for an n-dimensional Riemannian manifold to be isometrically immersed into one of the Lorentzian products 𝕊n × ℝ1 or ℍn × ℝ1. This condition is expressed in terms of its first and second fundamental forms, the tangent and normal projections of the vertical vector field. As applications, we give an equivalent condition in a spinorial way and we deduce the existence of a one-parameter family of isometric maximal deformation of a given maximal surface obtained by rotating the shape operator.

In this article, we show that the presence of a torqued vector field on a Riemannian manifold can be used to obtain rigidity results for Riemannian manifolds of constant curvature. More precisely, we show that there is no torqued vector field on n-sphere Sn(c). A nontrivial example of torqued vector field is constructed on an open subset of the Euclidean space En whose torqued function and torqued form are nowhere zero. It is shown that owing to topology of the Euclidean space En, this type of torqued vector fields could not be extended globally to En. Finally, we find a necessary and sufficient condition for a torqued vector field on a compact Riemannian manifold to be a concircular vector field.

We consider a Finsler space equipped with a Generalized Conformalβ-change of metric and study the Killing vector fields that correspond between the original Finsler space and the Finsler space equipped with Generalized Conformalβ-change of metric. We obtain necessary and sufficient condition for a vector field Killing in the original Finsler space to be Killing in the Finsler space equipped with Generalized Conformalβ-change of metric.

1. Introduction and statement of theorem. 1. In [1] Ambrose and Singer gave a necessary and sufficient condition (Theorem 3 here) for a simply connected complete Riemannian manifold to admit a transitive group of motions. Here we shall give a simple proof of a more general theorem — Theorem 1 (the proof of Theorem 1 became suggestive to us after we noted that the Tx of [1] is just the ax of [6] when X is restricted to p0, see [6], p. 539).

In this paper, for a Finsler manifold (M, F) with a Finsler metric gij(x, y) we shall consider a generalized Lagrange metrics (FGL-metrics) as the form *gij(x, y) = gij(x, y) + σ(x, y)Bi(x, y)Bj(x, y) on TM. Then we shall consider a Riemannian manifold (TM, *G) in which *G is a generalized Sasakian metric of *g on [Formula: see text]. Then we restrict the above FGL-metrics to a submanifold of [Formula: see text], and show that it admits a GL-metric structure. Then we shall find a necessary and sufficient condition for this submanifold to be totally geodesic.

In this paper, we introduce anti-invariant Riemannian submersions from nearly-K-cosymplectic manifolds onto Riemannian manifolds. We study the integrability of horizontal distributions. And we investigate the necessary and sufficient condition for an anti-invariant Riemannian submersion to be totally geodesic and harmonic. Moreover, we give examples of anti-invariant Riemannian submersions such that characteristic vector field ? is vertical or horizontal.

International audience The totally nonnegative Grassmannian Gr≥0 k,n is the set of k-dimensional subspaces V of Rn whose nonzero Plucker coordinates all have the same sign. In their study of scattering amplitudes in N = 4 supersym- metric Yang-Mills theory, Arkani-Hamed and Trnka (2013) considered the image (called an amplituhedron) of Gr≥0 k,n under a linear map Z : Rn → Rr, where k ≤ r and the r × r minors of Z are all positive. One reason they required this positivity condition is to ensure that the map Gr≥0 k,n → Grk,r induced by Z is well defined, i.e. it takes everynelement of Gr≥0 k,n to a k-dimensional subspace of Rr. Lam (2015) gave a sufficient condition for the induced map Gr≥0 k,n → Grk,r to be well defined, in which case he called the image a Grassmann polytope. (In the case k = 1, Grassmann polytopes are just polytopes, and amplituhedra are cyclic polytopes.) We give a necessary and sufficient condition for the induced map Gr≥0 k,n → Grk,r to be well defined, in terms of sign variation. Using previous work we presented at FPSAC 2015, we obtain an equivalent condition in terms of the r × r minors of Z (assuming Z has rank r).

In this paper, we investigate warped product semi-transversal lightlike submanifolds of indefinite Kaehler manifolds. It is shown that there does not exist any warped product semi-transversal lightlike submanifold of the type [Formula: see text] in an indefinite Kaehler manifold. Moreover, a necessary and sufficient condition for an isometrically immersed semi-transversal lightlike submanifold of an indefinite Kaehler manifold to be a semi-transversal lightlike warped product of the type [Formula: see text] is obtained, in terms of the shape operator.

An Einstein's connection which takes the form (3.1) is called an ME-connection. A generalizedn-dimensional Riemannian manifoldXnon which the differential geometric structure is imposed by a tensor field*gλνthrough a unique ME-connection subject to the conditions of Agreement (4.1) is called*g-ME-manifold and we denote it by*g-MEXn. The purpose of the present paper is to introduce this new concept of*g-MEXnand investigate its properties. In this paper, we first prove a necessary and sufficient condition for the unique existence of ME-connection inXn, and derive a surveyable tensorial representation of the ME-connection. In the second, we investigate the conformal change of*g-MEXnand present a useful tensorial representation of the conformal change of the ME-connection.

In this paper we study a new type of Riemannian manifold called generalized concircularly recurrent manifold. We obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for the constant scalar curvature of such a manifold. Next we study Ricci symmetric generalized concircularly recurrent manifold and prove that such a manifold is an Einstein manifold. Finally, we obtain a sufficient condition for a generalized concircularly recurrent manifold to be a special quasi-Einstein manifold.
