• 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 $\mathbb{R}^n$ 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 ...
