We consider conformal and concircular mappings of Eisenhart’s generalized Riemannian spaces. We prove conformal and concircular invariance of some tensors in Eisenhart’s generalized Riemannian spaces. We give new generalizations of symmetric spaces via Eisenhart’s generalized Riemannian spaces. Finally, we describe some properties of covariant derivatives of tensors analogous to Yano’s tensor of concircular curvature in Eisenhart symmetric spaces of various kinds.

In this paper, we consider conformal mappings of Riemannian spaces onto Ricci-2-symmetric Riemannian spaces and geodesic mappings of spaces with affine connections onto Ricci-2-symmetric spaces. The main equations for the mappings are obtained as a closed system of Cauchy-type differential equations in covariant derivatives. We find the number of essential parameters which the solution of the system depends on. A similar approach was applied for the case of conformal mappings of Riemannian spaces onto Ricci-m-symmetric Riemannian spaces, as well as geodesic mappings of spaces with affine connections onto Ricci-m-symmetric spaces.

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.

We derive two mixed systems of Cauchy type in covariant derivatives of the first and second kind that ensures the existence of almost geodesic mappings of the second type between manifolds with non-symmetric linear connection. Also, we consider a particular class of these mappings determined by the condition ?F = 0, where ? is the symmetric part of non-symmetric linear connection ?1 and F is the affinor structure. The same special class of almost geodesic mappings of the second type between generalized Riemannian spaces was recently considered in the paper (M.Z. Petrovic, Special almost geodesic mappings of the second type between generalized Riemannian spaces, Bull. Malays. Math. Sci. Soc. (2), DOI :10.1007/s40840-017-0509-5)

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.

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.

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.

This paper deals with a type of Remannian space Vn (n ≧ 2) for which the first covariant dervative of Weyl's projective curvature tensor is everywhere zero, that is where comma denotes covariant differentiation with respect to the metric tensor gij of Vn. Such a space has been called a projective-symmetric space by Gy. Soós [1]. We shall denote such an n-space by ψn. It will be proved in this paper that decomposable Projective-Symmetric spaces are symmetric in the sense of Cartan. In sections 3, 4 and 5 non-decomposable spaces of this kind will be considered in relation to other well-known classes of Riemannian spaces defined by curvature restrictions. In the last section the question of the existence of fields of concurrent directions in a ψ will be discussed.

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.
