SOME NEW IDENTITIES FOR THE SECOND COVARIANT DERIVATIVE OF THE CURVATURE TENSOR

In this paper we study the second covariant derivative of Riemannian curvature tensor. Some new identities for the second covariant derivative are given. Namely, identities obtained by cyclic sum with respect to three indices are given. In the first case, two curvature tensor indices and one covariant derivative index participate in the cyclic sum, while in the second case one curvature tensor index and two covariant derivative indices participate in the cyclic sum

Novel invariants for almost geodesic mappings of the third type

Two kinds of invariance for geometrical objects under transformations are involved in this paper. With respect to these kinds, we obtained novel invariants for almost geodesic mappings of the third type of a non-symmetric affine connection space in this paper. Our results are presented in two sections. In the Section 3, we obtained the invariants for the equitorsion almost geodesic mappings which do not have the property of reciprocity. In the Section 4, we obtained the invariants for almost geodesic mappings of the third type which have the property of reciprocity.Comment: 18 pages, 0 figure
