A Born Structure on the Tangent Bundle of a Hessian Manifold

Abstract

The Hessian structure, introduced by Shima(1976), is a geometric structure consisting of a pair $(\nabla,g)$ of an affine connection $\nabla$ and a Riemannian metric $g$ satisfying certain conditions. On the other hand, the Born structure, introduced by Freidel et al.(2014), is a strictly stronger geometric structure than an almost (para-)Hermitian structure. Marotta and Szabo(2019) proved that for a given manifold endowed with a pair $(\nabla, g)$, one can introduce an almost Born structure on the tangent bundle. In this article, we study the equivalence between the conditions that the pair $(\nabla, g)$ defines a Hessian structure, and that the induced almost Born structure is integrable.

Futaki invariant on Hopf manifolds

The Futaki invariant is a fundamental tool in Kähler geometry representing an obstruction to the existence of Kähler-Einstein metrics. Recently, it was generalized to compact complex manifolds. In this paper, we prove that it vanishes on Hopf manifolds.

Remarks on potential functions of noncompact quasi-Einstein manifolds

In this article, we study the set of potential functions on noncompact quasi-Einstein manifolds. We show that the space of all positive potential functions on a three-dimensional noncompact quasi-Einstein manifold has dimension at most two, and that equality holds if and only if the manifold is isometric to a product $B\times\mathbb{R}$, where $B$ is a $λ$-Einstein surface or one of the examples obtained by L. Berard Bergery and described in Besse's book. Moreover, we prove that any asymptotically flat $n$-dimensional quasi-Einstein manifold with $λ=0$ is necessarily Ricci-flat.

Adjusted connections on non-abelian bundle gerbes

Higher gauge theory for non-abelian structure 2-groups faces significant challenges when extending beyond the fake-flat sector, which suffers from limited applicability in physical models. A promising resolution involves equipping 2-groups with additional structure, known as adjustments. We present a comprehensive theory of adjusted connections on non-abelian bundle gerbes, classified by Saemann's adjusted version of non-abelian differential cohomology. This theory enables, in particular, a new coordinate-independent formulation of Tellez-Dominguez' lifting theorem, establishing a correspondence between adjusted connections on non-abelian bundle gerbes and connections on abelian bundle 2-gerbes.
