On three dimensional affine Szabó manifolds

Abstract

In this paper, we consider the cyclic parallel Ricci tensor condition, which is a necessary condition for an affine manifold to be Szabó. We show that, in dimension $3$, there are affine manifolds which satisfy the cyclic parallel Ricci tensor but are not Szabó. Conversely, it is known that in dimension $2$, the cyclic parallel Ricci tensor forces the affine manifold to be Szabó. Examples of $3$-dimensional affine Szabo manifolds are also given. Finally, we give some properties of Riemannian extensions defined on the cotangent bundle over an affine Szabó manifold.
