Abstract:
AbstractIn this paper we study left invariant Einstein–Randers metrics on compact Lie groups. First, we give a method to construct left invariant non-Riemannian Einstein–Randers metrics on a compact Lie group, using the Zermelo navigation data. Then we prove that this gives a complete classification of left invariant Einstein–Randers metrics on compact simple Lie groups with the underlying Riemannian metric naturally reductive. Further, we completely determine the identity component of the group of isometries for this type of metrics on simple groups. Finally, we study some geometric properties of such metrics. In particular, we give the formulae of geodesics and flag curvature of such metrics.

In this paper, we consider invariant [Formula: see text]-metrics which are induced by invariant Riemannian metrics [Formula: see text] and invariant vector fields [Formula: see text] on homogeneous spaces. We study the flag curvatures of invariant [Formula: see text]-metrics. We first give an explicit formula for the flag curvature of invariant [Formula: see text]-metrics arising from invariant Riemannian metrics on homogeneous spaces and Lie groups. We then give some explicit formula for the flag curvature of invariant Matsumoto metrics, invariant Kropina metrics and invariant Randers metrics.

Abstract:
Manifolds with constraints on tensor fields include Einstein manifolds, Einstein-like manifolds, conformally flat manifolds, and a number of other important classes of manifolds. The work of many mathematicians is devoted to the study of such manifolds, which is reflected in the monographs of A. Besse, M. Berger, M.-D. Cao, M. Wang.
 Ricci solitons are one of the natural generalizations of Einstein's metrics. If a Riemannian manifold is a Lie group, one speaks of invariant Ricci solitons.
 Invariant Ricci solitons were studied in most detail in the case of unimodular Lie groups with left-invariant Riemannian metrics and the case of low dimension. Thus, L. Cerbo proved that all invariant Ricci solitons are trivial on unimodular Lie groups with left-invariant Riemannian metric and Levi-Civita connection.A similar result up to dimension four was obtained by P.N. Klepikov and D.N. Oskorbin for the non-unimodular case.
 We study invariant Ricci solitons on three-dimensional unimodular Lie groups with the Lorentzian metric.The study results show that unimodular Lie groups with left-invariant Lorentzian metric admit invariant Ricci solitons other than trivial ones. In this paper, a complete classification of invariant Ricci solitons on three-dimensional unimodular Lie groups with leftinvariant Lorentzian metric is obtained.

Abstract:
Ricci solitons are a natural generalization of Einstein metrics and represent a solution to the Ricci flow. In the general case, they were studied by many mathematicians, which was reflected in the reviews by H.-D. cao, R.M. Aroyo — R. Lafuente. This issue has been most studied in the homogeneous Riemannian case, as well as in the case of trivial Ricci solitons, or Einstein metrics. In this paper, we study homogeneous Ricci solitons on three-dimensional locally homogeneous (pseudo) Riemannian spaces with a nontrivial isotropy group and a semisymmetric connection. A classification of homogeneous Ricci solitons on three-dimensional locally homogeneous (pseudo) Riemannian spaces with a semisymmetric connection is obtained. It is proved that in the case of Lie groups there exist nontrivial invariant Ricci solitons. Earlier, L. cerbo showed that all invariant Ricci solitons are trivial or Einstein metrics on unimodular Lie groups with a left-invariant Riemannian metric and a Levi-Civita connection. In the non-unimodular case, a similar result was obtained by P.N. Klepikov and D.N. Oskorbin up to dimension four inclusively. The problem remains open for the cases of dimension 5 and higher.

Abstract:
The topology of Riemannian manifolds can be linked to the eigenvalues of curvature operators, which was demonstrated in the works of J. Milnor, V.N. Berestovsky, V.V. Slavkii, E.D. Rodionov, and Yu.G. Nikonorov. J. Milnor studied the eigenvalues of the Ricci curvature operator of left-invariant Riemannian metrics on Lie groups, and identified possible signatures of the Ricci operator for three-dimensional Lie groups. O. Kowalski and S. Nikcevic later resolved the problem of prescribed spectrum values of the Ricci operator on three-dimensional metric Lie groups and Riemannian locally homogeneous spaces. D.N. Oskorbin, E.D. Rodionov, and O.P. Khomova also obtained similar results for the one-dimensional curvature operator and the sectional curvature operator. A.G. Kremlev and Yu.G. Nikonorov investigated the fourdimensional case and studied the possible signatures of the Ricci curvature of left-invariant Riemannian metrics on Lie groups. In this study, we aim to solve the problem of prescribed eigenvalues of the Ricci operator on locally homogeneous Riemannian manifolds with a nontrivial isotropy subgroup.

Abstract A Riemannian manifold (M, ρ) is called Einstein if the metric ρ satisfies the condition Ric(ρ) = c · ρ for some constant c. This paper is devoted to the investigation of G-invariant Einstein metrics, with additional symmetries, on some homogeneous spaces G/H of classical groups. As a consequence, we obtain new invariant Einstein metrics on some Stiefel manifolds SO(n)/SO(l). Furthermore, we show that for any positive integer p there exists a Stiefelmanifold SO(n)/SO(l) that admits at least p SO(n)-invariant Einstein metrics.

Several of the results presented in the initial chapter are not easily found, in the Diferential Geometry literature, in a way as accessible and self-contained as here. This being said, we believe that this work embodies some didactic relevance, for it others students interested in symmetric spaces a relatively smooth first contact. We shall generally look at symmetric spaces as homogeneous manifolds G=H, where G is a Lie group and H is a closed Lie subgroup of G, such that the natural mapping : G ! G=H is a riemannian submersion. Ultimately, this map allows us to describe the relationships between the curvature, the Ricci tensor and the geodesics of G and G=H. For our purposes, the crucial remark is that, under appropriate circumstances, one guarantees the existence, in G=H, of a metric for which left translations are isometries. Hence, a one-parameter family of such isometries gives rise to a Killing vector field, which turn into a Jacobi vector eld when restricted to a geodesic. We present explicit expressions for such Jacobi vector elds, showing that they only depend on the eigenvalues of the linear operator TX : g ! g given by TX = (adX)2, for certain vector elds X 2 g.<br>Este trabalho traz uma introdução suave e autocontida ao estudo dos aspectos mais básicos de espaços simétricos, tendo como objetivo final a caracterização dos campos de Killing e do tensor de Ricci de tais variedades riemannianas. Vários dos resultados obtidos nos capítulos iniciais não são encontrados, na literatura de Geometria Diferencial, de maneira tão acessível e autocontida como apresentados aqui. Com isso, acreditamos que o trabalho reveste-se de alguma relevância didática, por oferecer aos alunos interessados no estudo de espaços simétricos um primeiro contato relativamente suave. Em linhas gerais, veremos espaços simétricos como variedades homogêneas G=H, onde G e um grupo de Lie e H um subgrupo de Lie fechado de G, tais que a aplicação natural: G ! G=H seja uma submersão riemanniana. Através dela, descrevemos relações entre a curvatura, o tensor de Ricci e as geodésicas de G e G=H. Para nossos propósitos, a observação crucial e que, sob certas hipóteses, garantimos a existência, em G=H, de uma métrica cujas translações a esquerda são isometrias. Portanto, uma família a um parâmetro de tais isometrias d a origem a um campo de Killing que, por sua vez, restrito a geodésicas torna-se um campo de Jacobi. Apresentamos expressões para esses campos de Jacobi, mostrando que os mesmos só dependem dos autovalores do operador linear TX : g ! g dado por TX = (adX)2, para certos campos X 2 g.

Abstract:
A fundamental result in Riemannian geometry is the jet isomorphism theorem which asserts that at the origin in geodesic normal coordinates, the full Taylor expansion of the metric may be recovered from the iterated covariant derivatives of curvature. As a consequence, one deduces that any local invariant of Riemannian metrics has a universal expression in terms of the curvature tensor and its covariant derivatives. Geodesic normal coordinates are determined up to the orthogonal group, so problems involving local invariants are reduced to purely algebraic questions concerning invariants of the orthogonal group on tensors. This chapter proves an analogous jet isomorphism theorem for conformal geometry. By making conformal changes, the Taylor expansion of a metric in geodesic normal coordinates can be further simplified, resulting in a “conformal normal form” for metrics about a point.

Abstract:
This chapter shows how to derive a characterization of scalar invariants of conformal structures by reduction to the relevant results of [BEGr]. In [FG], the authors conjectured that when n is odd, all scalar conformal invariants arise as Weyl invariants constructed from the ambient metric. The second main goal of this book is to prove this together with an analogous result when n is even. These results are contained in Theorems 9.2, 9.3, and 9.4. The parabolic invariant theory needed to prove these results was developed in [BEGr], including the observation of the existence of exceptional invariants. But substantial work is required to reduce the theorems in the chapter to the results of [BEGr]. To understand this, it briefly reviews how Weyl's characterization of scalar Riemannian invariants is proved.

Abstract:
This introductory chapter begins with a brief definition of conformal geometry. Conformal geometry is the study of spaces in which one knows how to measure infinitesimal angles but not lengths. A conformal structure on a manifold is an equivalence class of Riemannian metrics, in which two metrics are identified if one is a positive smooth multiple of the other. In [FG], the authors outlined a construction of a nondegenerate Lorentz metric in n+2 dimensions associated to an n-dimensional conformal manifold, which they called the ambient metric. This association enables one to construct conformal invariants in n dimensions from pseudo-Riemannian invariants in n+2 dimensions, and in particular shows that conformal invariants are plentiful. The formal theory outlined in [FG] did not provide details. This book provides these details. An overview of the subsequent chapters is also presented.

Abstract:
Abstract Symplectic topology is the study of the global phenomenon of symplectic geometry. In contrast the local structure of a symplectic manifold is, by Darboux’s theorem, always equivalent to the standard structure on Euclidean space. Hence there cannot be any local invariants in symplectic geometry. This should be contrasted with Riemannian geometry where the curvature provides such local invariants. These local invariants severely restrict the group of isometries and give rise to an infinite dimensional variety of nonequivalent Riemannian metrics. In symplectic geometry the absence of local invariants gives rise to an infinite dimensional group of diffeomor- phisms which preserve the symplectic structure and to a discrete set of nonequivalent global symplectic structures in each cohomology class.

Abstract:
The invariance of the speed of light with respect to any inertial observational frame leads to a surprisingly large number of unusual results that defy common intuition. Chief among these are time dilation, length contraction, and loss of simultaneity. The Lorentz transformation intermixes space and time, but an overarching structure is provided by the metric tensor of Minkowski space-time. The pseudo-Riemannian metric supports 4-vectors whose norms are invariants, independent of any observational frame. These invariants constitute the proper objects of reality to study in the special theory of relativity. Relativistic dynamics defines the equivalence of mass and energy, which has many applications in nuclear energy and particle physics. Forces have transformation properties between relatively moving frames that set the stage for a more general theory of relativity that describes physical phenomena in noninertial frames.

Abstract:
Abstract We turn now to the question which formed the second main thread of the topological discussion in Chapter 1, namely the question of distinguishing smooth four-manifolds having the same classical invariants. Our strategy is to define new invariants using the ASD moduli spaces. The ASD equations are not defined until a Riemannian metric g (or rather, a conformal class) is chosen; the space of solutions-the moduli spaces we have been studying-reflect accordingly many properties of the metric. In order to define differential-topological invariants, we must extract some piece of information from the moduli space which is insensitive to a change in the metric and therefore depends only on the underlying manifold.

Abstract:
A point-line is the combination of a directed line and an endpoint on the line. A pair of point-line positions corresponds to a point-line displacement, which is known to be associated with a set of rigid body displacements whose screw axes are distributed on a cylindroid. Different associated rigid body displacements generally correspond to different distances under Riemannian metrics on the manifold of SE(3). A unique measure of distance between a pair of point-line positions is desirable in engineering applications. In this paper, the distance between two point-line positions is investigated based on the left-invariant Riemannian metrics on the manifold of SE(3). The displacements are elaborated from the perspective of the soma space. The set of rigid body displacements associated to the point-line displacement is mapped to a one-dimensional great circle on the unit sphere in the space of four dual dimensions, on which the point with the minimum distance to the identity is indicated. It is shown that the minimum distance is achieved when an associated rigid body displacement has no rotational component about the point-line axis. The minimum distance, which has the inherited property of independence of inertial reference frames, is referred to as the point-line distance. A numerical example shows the application of point-line distance to a point-line path generation problem in mechanism synthesis.

Abstract:
Abstract We present a Riemannian geometric framework for variational approaches to geometric design. Optimal surface design is regarded as a special case of the more general problem of finding a minimum distortion mapping between Riemannian manifolds. This geometric approach emphasizes the coordinate-invariant aspects of the problem, and engineering constraints are naturally embedded by selecting a suitable metric in the physical space. In this context we also present an engineering application of the theory of harmonic maps.

Abstract:
An investigation is carried out for deriving conditions on the correct application of Newton’s law of motion to mechanical systems subjected to constraints. It utilizes some fundamental concepts of differential geometry and treats both holonomic and anholonomic constraints. The focus is on establishment of conditions, so that the form of Newton’s law remains invariant when imposing an additional set of motion constraints on a system. Based on this requirement, two conditions are derived, specifying the metric and the form of the connection on the new manifold. The latter is weaker than a similar condition employed frequently in the literature, but holding on Riemannian manifolds only. This is shown to have several practical implications. First, it provides a valuable freedom for selecting the connection on the manifold describing large rigid body rotation, so that the group properties of this manifold are preserved. Moreover, it is used to state clearly the conditions for expressing Newton’s law on the tangent space (and not on the dual space) of a manifold. Finally, the Euler-Lagrange operator is examined and issues related to equations of motion for anholonomic and vakonomic systems are investigated.
