• Generalized Vector Cross Products and Killing Forms on Negatively Curved Manifolds 

      [OWP-2018-17] Barberis, María Laura; Moroianu, Andrei; Semmelmann, Uwe (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2018-07-17)
      Motivated by the study of Killing forms on compact Riemannian manifolds of negative sectional curvature, we introduce the notion of generalized vector cross products on Rn and give their classification. Using ...
    • Metric Connections with Parallel Skew-Symmetric Torsion 

      [OWP-2018-16] Cleyton, Richard; Moroianu, Andrei; Semmelmann, Uwe (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2018-07-16)
      A geometry with parallel skew-symmetric torsion is a Riemannian manifold carrying a metric connection with parallel skew-symmetric torsion. Besides the trivial case of the Levi-Civita connection, geometries with non-vanishing ...
