A physical model of the Reeb foliation
Gianluca Bande, Gregorio Franzoni
In this paper, after explaining some basic aspects of the modern theory of foliations with the aim of describing the celebrated Reeb foliation, we propose the first construction of…
Some Problems on Intrinsically Harmonic Forms
Gianluca Bande
In this short note we recall the definition of intrinsically harmonic forms, some known results and some open problems.
-Einstein Sasakian immersions in non-compact Sasakian space forms
Gianluca Bande, Beniamino Cappelletti Montano, Andrea Loi
The aim of this paper is to study Sasakian immersions of (non-compact) complete regular Sasakian manifolds into the Heisenberg group and into equip…
Holomorphic spheres and four-dimensional symplectic pairs
Gianluca Bande, Paolo Ghiggini
We classify four-dimensional manifolds endowed with symplectic pairs admitting embedded symplectic spheres with non-negative self-intersection, following the strategy of McDuff's c…
Bochner and Conformal Flatness of Normal Metric Contact Pairs
Gianluca Bande, David E. Blair, Amine Hadjar
We prove that the normal metric contact pairs with orthogonal characteristic foliations, which are either Bochner flat or locally conformally flat, are locally isometric to the Hop…
Minimality of invariant submanifolds in Metric Contact Pair Geometry
Gianluca Bande, Amine Hadjar
We study invariant submanifolds of manifolds endowed with a normal or complex metric contact pair with decomposable endomorphism field . For the normal case, we prove that a …
