Cyclic homogeneous Riemannian manifolds
In spin geometry, traceless cyclic homogeneous Riemannian manifolds equipped
with a homogeneous spin structure can be viewed as the simplest manifolds after
Riemannian symmetric spin spaces. In this paper, we give some characterizations
and properties of cyclic and traceless cyclic homogeneous Riemannian manifolds
and we obtain the classification of simply-connected cyclic homogeneous
Riemannian manifolds of dimension less than or equal to four. We also present a
wide list of examples of non-compact irreducible Riemannian -symmetric
spaces admitting cyclic metrics and give the expression of these metrics
Homogeneous spin Riemannian manifolds with the simplest Dirac operator
We show the existence of nonsymmetric homogeneous spin Riemannian manifolds
whose Dirac operator is like that on a Riemannian symmetric spin space. Such
manifolds are exactly the homogeneous spin Riemannian manifolds which
are traceless cyclic with respect to some quotient expression and
reductive decomposition .
Using transversally symmetric fibrations of noncompact type, we give a list of
them
All invariant contact metric structures on tangent sphere bundles of compact rank-one symmetric spaces
All invariant contact metric structures on tangent sphere bundles of each
compact rank-one symmetric space are obtained explicitly, distinguishing for
the orthogonal case those that are K-contact, Sasakian or 3-Sasakian. Only the
tangent sphere bundle of complex projective spaces admits 3-Sasakian metrics
and there exists a unique orthogonal Sasakian-Einstein metric. Furthermore,
there is a unique invariant contact metric that is Einstein, in fact
Sasakian-Einstein, on tangent sphere bundles of spheres and real projective
spaces. Each invariant contact metric, Sasakian, Sasakian-Einstein or
3-Sasakian structure on the unit tangent sphere of any compact rank-one
symmetric space is extended, respectively, to an invariant almost Kahler,
Kahler, Kahler Ricci-flat or hyperKahler structure on the punctured tangent
bundle
