In the affine space the fundamental-group connection in the bundle associated with a surface as a manifold of tangent planes is investigated. The principal bundle contains a quotient bundle of tangent frames, the typical fiber of which is a linear group acting in a centered tangent plane and a quotient bundle of normal frames, the typical fiber of which is a linear group acting inefficiently in a normal quotient space. The curvature object of the fundamental-group connection is a tensor that contains two primary subtensors tangent and normal linear connections. The tensor of non-absolute parallel transference is constructed. Two envelopment of the connection object is obtained. Analytic and geometric conditions of coincidence of two types of envelopment are found. The covariant derivatives of equipping quasitensor form a tensor. The alternations of the covariant derivatives of the objects of the affine and linear connections of the first type are equal to the corresponding components of the curvature tensor and for the second type they vanish.

In this note we show in § 1, as the main result, that any connected Lie subgroup of the general linear group GL(n, R) can be realized as the holonomy group of a linear connection, i.e. the homogeneous holonomy group of the associeted affine connection, defined on an affine space of dimension n (n ≧ 2).

A Lie group containing a subgroup is considered. Such a group is a principal bundle, a typical fiber of this principal bundle is the subgroup and a base is a homogeneous space, which is obtained by factoring the group by the subgroup. Starting from this group, we constructed structure equations of a space with Cartan connection, which generalizes the Cartan point projective connection, Akivis’s linear projective connection, and a plane projective connection. Structure equations of this Cartan connection, containing the components of the curvature-torsion object, allowed: 1) to show that the curvature-torsion object forms a tensor containing a torsion tensor; 2) to find an analogue of the Bianchi identities such that the curvature-torsion tensor and its Pfaff derivatives satisfy this analogue; 3) to obtain the conditions for the transformation of Pfaffian derivatives of the curvature-torsion tensor into covariant derivatives with respect to the Cartan connection.

Generalized m-parabolic K?hler manifolds are defined and holomorphically projective mappings between such manifolds have been considered. Two non-linear systems of PDE?s in covariant derivatives of the first and second kind for the existence of such mappings are given. Also, relations between five linearly independent curvature tensors of generalized m-parabolic K?hler manifolds with respect to these mappings are examined.

A tensor is said to be isotropic relative to a group of transformations if its components are invariant under the associated group of coordinate transformations. In this paper we review the classification of tensors which are isotropic under the general linear group, the special linear (unimodular) group and the rotational group. These correspond respectively to isotropic absolute tensors [4, 8] isotropic relative tensors [4] and isotropic Cartesian tensors [3]. New proofs are given for the representation of isotropic tensors in terms of Kronecker deltas and alternating tensors. And, for isotropic Cartesian tensors, we provide a complete classification, clarifying results described in [3].In the final section of the paper certain derivatives of isotropic tensor fields are examined.

This chapter studies conformal curvature tensors of a pseudo-Riemannian metric g. These are defined in terms of the covariant derivatives of the curvature tensor of an ambient metric in normal form relative to g. Their transformation laws under conformal change are given in terms of the action of a subgroup of the conformal group O(p + 1, q + 1) on tensors. It is assumed throughout this chapter that n ≥ 3.

A compact simply connected complex homogeneous manifold is said briefly a C-space, which was completely classified by H. C. Wang [12]. A C-space is called to be Kählerian if it admits a Kählerian metric such that a group of isometries acts transitively on it. Hermitian symmetric spaces of compact type are typical examples of a Kählerian C-space. Let M be an arbitrary Kählerian C-space and R its curvature tensor. M. Itoh [6] expressed R in the language of Lie algebra and investigated various properties of R. In this paper, we study higher covariant derivatives of R.

Abstract We deal with the question of what it means to define a minimal coupling prescription in presence of torsion and/or non-metricity, carefully explaining while the naive substitution $$\partial \rightarrow \nabla $$∂→∇ introduces extra couplings between the matter fields and the connection that can be regarded as non-minimal in presence of torsion and/or non-metricity. We will also investigate whether minimal coupling prescriptions at the level of the action (MCPL) or at the level of field equations (MCPF) lead to different dynamics. To that end, we will first write the Euler–Lagrange equations for matter fields in terms of the covariant derivatives of a general non-Riemannian space, and derivate the form of the associated Noether currents and charges. Then we will see that if the minimal coupling prescriptions is applied as we discuss, for spin 0 and 1 fields the results of MCPL and MCPF are equivalent, while for spin 1/2 fields there is a difference if one applies the MCPF or the MCPL, since the former leads to charge violation.

Abstract In 1980 Zelevinsky introduced certain commuting varieties whose irreducible components classify complex, irreducible representations of the general linear group over a non-archimedean local field with a given supercuspidal support. We formulate geometric conditions for certain triples of such components and conjecture that these conditions are related to irreducibility of parabolic induction. The conditions are in the spirit of the Geiss–Leclerc–Schröer condition that occurs in the conjectural characterization of $$\square $$ □ -irreducible representations. We verify some special cases of the new conjecture and check that the geometric and representation-theoretic conditions are compatible in various ways.
