Type Decomposition

We study geometry of a Riemannian manifold endowed with a singular (or regular) distribution, determined as an image of the tangent bundle under smooth endomorphisms. Following construction of an almost Lie algebroid on a vector bundle, we define the modified covariant and exterior derivatives and their L 2 adjoint operators on tensors. Then, we introduce the Weitzenböck type curvature operator on tensors, prove the Weitzenböck type decomposition formula, and derive the Bochner–Weitzenböck type formula. These allow us to obtain vanishing theorems about the null space of the Hodge type Laplacian. The assumptions used in the results are reasonable, as illustrated by examples with f-manifolds, including almost Hermitian and almost contact ones.

In this paper, we extend our previous study regarding a Riemannian manifold endowed with a singular (or regular) distribution, generalizing Bochner’s technique and a statistical structure. Following the construction of an almost Lie algebroid, we define the central concept of the paper: The Weitzenböck type curvature operator on tensors, prove the Bochner–Weitzenböck type formula and obtain some vanishing results about the null space of the Hodge type Laplacian on a distribution.

Kaluza Klein

Introducing the Lie algebroid generalized tangent bundle of a Kaluza–Klein bundle, we develop the theory of general distinguished linear connections for this space. In particular, using the Lie algebroid generalized tangent bundle of the Kaluza–Klein vector bundle, we present the (g, h)-lift of a curve on the base M and we characterize the horizontal and vertical parallelism of the (g, h)-lift of accelerations with respect to a distinguished linear (ρ, η)-connection. Moreover, we study the torsion, curvature and Ricci tensor field associated to a distinguished linear (ρ, η)-connection and we obtain the identities of Cartan and Bianchi type in the general framework of the Lie algebroid generalized tangent bundle of a Kaluza–Klein bundle. Finally, we introduce the theory of (pseudo) generalized Kaluza–Klein G-spaces and we develop the Einstein equations in this general framework.

Original Definition

Abstract In the original definition due to A. Weinstein and T. Courant a Dirac structure is a subbundle of the big tangent bundle T M ⊕ T* M that is equal to its ortho-complement with respect to the so-called neutral metric on the big tangent bundle. In this paper, instead of the big tangent bundle we consider the vector bundle E ⊕ E*, where E is a Banach Lie algebroid and E* its dual. Recall that E* is not in general a Lie algebroid. We define a bilinear and symmetric form on the vector bundle E ⊕ E* and say that a subbundle of it is a Dirac structure if it is equal with its orthocomplement. Our main result is that any Dirac structure that is closed with respect to a type of Courant bracket, endowed with a natural anchor is a Lie algebroid. In the proof the differential calculus on a Lie algebroid is essentially involved. We work in the category of Banach vector bundles.

Almost Complex

AbstractIn this paper, the standard almost complex structure on the tangent bunle of a Riemannian manifold will be generalized. We will generalize the standard one to the new ones such that the induced (0, 2)-tensor on the tangent bundle using these structures and Liouville 1-form will be a Riemannian metric. Moreover, under the integrability condition, the curvature operator of the base manifold will be classified.

Starting from the g-natural Riemannian metric G on the tangent bundle TM of a Riemannian manifold (M,g), we construct a family of the Golden Riemannian structures ? on the tangent bundle (TM,G). Then we investigate the integrability of such Golden Riemannian structures on the tangent bundle TM and show that there is a direct correlation between the locally decomposable property of (TM,?,G) and the locally flatness of manifold (M,g).

In the present paper, we introduce a new class of natural metrics on the tangent bundle $TM$ of the Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ denoted by $G^{f,h}$ which is named a twisted Sasakian metric. A necessary and sufficient conditions under which a vector field is harmonic with respect to the twisted Sasakian metric are established. Some examples of harmonic vector fields are presented as well.

Given a Riemannian manifold M, the Riemann tensor R induces the curvature operator on the exterior power of the tangent space, defined by the formula where the inner product is defined by From the symmetries of R, it follows that ρ is self-adjoint and so has only real eigenvalues. R also induces the sectional curvature function K on 2-planes in is an orthonormal basis of the 2-plane π.
