On Rigidity of Generalized Conformal Structures
The classical Liouville Theorem on conformal transformations determines local
conformal transformations on the Euclidean space of dimension . Its
natural adaptation to the general framework of Riemannian structures is the
2-rigidity of conformal transformations, that is such a transformation is fully
determined by its 2-jet at any point. We prove here a similar rigidity for
generalized conformal structures defined by giving a one parameter family of
metrics (instead of scalar multiples of a given one) on each tangent space
Real and discrete holomorphy : Introduction to an algebraic approach
We consider spaces for which there is a notion of harmonicity for complex
valued functions defined on them. For instance, this is the case of Riemannian
manifolds on one hand, and (metric) graphs on the other hand. We observe that
it is then possible to define an "amazing" notion of holomorphic functions on
them, and show how rigid it is in some cases
On discrete projective transformation groups of Riemannian manifolds
We prove rigidity facts for groups acting on pseudo-Riemannian manifolds by
preserving unparameterized geodesics
