Geometric realizations of Kaehler and of para-Kaehler curvature models
We show that every Kaehler algebraic curvature tensor is geometrically
realizable by a Kaehler manifold of constant scalar curvature. We also show
that every para-Kaehler algebraic curvature tensor is geometrically realizable
by a para-Kaehler manifold of constant scalar curvatur
Examples of signature (2,2) manifolds with commuting curvature operators
We exhibit Walker manifolds of signature (2,2) with various commutativity
properties for the Ricci operator, the skew-symmetric curvature operator, and
the Jacobi operator. If the Walker metric is a Riemannian extension of an
underlying affine structure A, these properties are related to the Ricci tensor
of A
Four-dimensional homogeneous critical metrics for quadratic curvature functionals
We determine all homogeneous metrics which are critical for some quadratic
curvature functional in dimension four
