On weakly Einstein Lie groups

Yunhee Euh, Sinhwi Kim, Yuri Nikolayevsky +1

A Riemannian manifold is called \emph{weakly Einstein} if the tensor is a scalar multiple of the metric tensor . We consider weakly Einstein Lie gro…

Weakly Einstein hypersurfaces in space forms

Jihun Kim, Yuri Nikolayevsky, JeongHyeong Park

A Riemannian manifold is called \emph{weakly Einstein} if the tensor is a scalar multiple of the metric tensor . We give a complete classifi…

Pseudo-Riemannian geodesic orbit nilmanifolds of signature

Zhiqi Chen, Yuri Nikolayevsky, Joseph A. Wolf +1

The geodesic orbit property is useful and interesting in itself, and it plays a key role in Riemannian geometry. It implies homogeneity and has important classes of Riemannian mani…

The Structure of Geodesic Orbit Lorentz Nilmanifolds

Yuri Nikolayevsky, Joseph A. Wolf

The geodesic orbit property is useful and interesting in Riemannian geometry. It implies homogeneity and has important classes of Riemannian manifolds as special cases. Those class…

Respectful decompositions of Lie algebras

Grant Cairns, Yuri Nikolayevsky

One of Pierre Molino's principal mathematical achievements was his theory of Riemannian foliations. One of his last papers, published in 2001, showed that his theory could be exten…

Stability of geodesic vectors in low-dimensional Lie algebras

An Ky Nguyen, Yuri Nikolayevsky

A naturally parameterised curve in a Lie group with a left invariant metric is a geodesic, if its tangent vector left-translated to the identity satisfies the Euler equation $\dot{…

On 2-stein submanifolds in space forms

Yunhee Euh, Jihun Kim, Yuri Nikolayevsky +1

We prove that a 2-stein submanifold in a space form whose normal connection is flat or whose codimension is at most 2, has constant curvature.

Einstein hypersurfaces of Damek-Ricci spaces

Sinhwi Kim, Yuri Nikolayevsky, JeongHyeong Park

Einstein hypersurfaces are ``very rare" in rank-one symmetric spaces. Damek-Ricci spaces may be viewed as the closest and the most natural generalisations of noncompact rank-one sy…

Totally geodesic submanifolds of Damek-Ricci spaces and Einstein hypersurfaces of the Cayley projective plane

Sinhwi Kim, Yuri Nikolayevsky, JeongHyeong Park

We classify totally geodesic submanifolds of Damek-Ricci spaces and show that they are either homogeneous (such submanifolds are known to be "smaller" Damek-Ricci spaces) or isomet…

D. Alekseevsky, Y. Nikolayevsky

Given a Riemannian space of dimension and a field of symmetric endomorphisms on , we define the extension of by to be the Riemannian manifold of dimensio…

Compact pseudo-Riemannian homogeneous Einstein manifolds of low dimension

Wolfgang Globke, Yuri Nikolayevsky

Let be pseudo-Riemannian homogeneous Einstein manifold of finite volume, and suppose a connected Lie group acts transitively and isometrically on . In this situation, th…

-contact unit tangent sphere bundles of Riemannian manifolds

Yuri Nikolayevsky, Jeong Hyeong Park

A contact metric manifold is said to be -contact, if the characteristic vector field is harmonic. We prove that the unit tangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold equipped wit…

Locally conformally Berwald manifolds and compact quotients of reducible manifolds by homotheties

Vladimir S. Matveev, Yuri Nikolayevsky

We study locally conformally Berwald metrics on closed manifolds which are not globally conformally Berwald. We prove that the characterization of such metrics is equivalent to cha…

Vladimir S. Matveev, Yuri Nikolayevsky

We construct an example of a closed manifold with a nonflat reducible locally metric connection such that it preserves a conformal structure and such that it is not the Levi-Civita…
