Mathematics - Differential Geometry - Abstract
A Lorentzian Lie group is a Lie group endowed with a left invariant Lorentzian metric. We study left-invariant Codazzi tensors on Lorentzian Lie groups. We obtain new results on left-invariant Lorentzian metrics with harmonic curvature and non-parallel Ricci operator. In contrast to the Riemannian case, the Ricci operator of a let-invariant Lorentzian metric can be of four types: diagonal, of type $\{n-2,z\bar{z}\}$, of type $\{n,a2\}$ and of type $\{n,a3\}$. We first describe Lorentzian Lie algebras with a non-diagonal Codazzi operator and with these descriptions in mind, we study three classes of Lorentzian Lie groups with harmonic curvature. Namely, we give a complete description of the Lie algebra of Lorentzian Lie groups having harmonic curvature and where the Ricci operator is non-diagonal and its diagonal part consists of one real eigenvalue $\alpha$., Comment: 50 pages, submitted

Mathematics - Differential Geometry ,Mathematics - Rings and Algebras - Abstract
A pseudo-Euclidean non-associative algebra $(\mathfrak{g}, \bullet)$ is a real algebra of finite dimension that has a metric, i.e., a bilinear, symmetric, and non-degenerate form $\langle\;\rangle$. The metric is considered $\mathrm{L}$-invariant (resp. $\mathrm{R}$-invariant) if all left multiplications (resp. right multiplications) are skew-symmetric. The metric is called associative if $\langle u\bullet v,w\rangle= \langle u,v\bullet w\rangle$ for all $u, v, w \in \mathfrak{g}$. These three notions coincide when $\mathfrak{g}$ is a Lie algebra and in this case $\mathfrak{g}$ endowed with the metric is known as a quadratic Lie algebra. This paper provides a complete description of $\mathrm{L}$-invariant, $\mathrm{R}$-invariant, or associative pseudo-Euclidean metrics on left Leibniz algebras. It shows that a left Leibniz algebra with an associative metric is also right Leibniz and can be obtained easily from its underlying Lie algebra, which is a quadratic Lie algebra. Additionally, it shows that at the core of a left Leibniz algebra endowed with a $\mathrm{L}$-invariant or $\mathrm{R}$-invariant metric, there are two Lie algebras with one quadratic and the left Leibniz algebra can be built from these Lie algebras. We derive many important results from these complete description. Finally, the paper provides a list of left Leibniz algebras with an associative metric up to dimension 6, as well as a list of left Leibniz algebras with an $\mathrm{L}$-invariant metric, up to dimension 4, and $\mathrm{R}$-invariant metric up to dimension 5., Comment: 30 pages

Mathematics - Differential Geometry - Abstract
$k$-symplectic manifolds are a convenient framework to study classical field theories and they are a generalization of polarized symplectic manifolds. This paper focus on the existence and the properties of left invariant $k$-symplectic structures on Lie groups having a bi-invariant pseudo-Riemannian metric. We show that compact semi-simple Lie groups and a large class of Lie groups having a bi-invariant pseudo-Riemannian metric does not carry any left invariant $k$-symplectic structure. This class contains the oscillator Lie groups which are the only solvable non abelian Lie groups having a bi-invariant Lorentzian metric. However, we built a natural left invariant $n$-symplectic structure on $\mathrm{SL}(n,\mathbb{R})$. Moreover, up to dimension 6, only three connected and simply connected Lie groups have a bi-invariant indecomposable pseudo-Riemannian metric and a left invariant k-symplectic structure, namely, the universal covering of $\mathrm{SL}(2, \mathbb{R})$ with a 2-symplectic structure, the universal covering of the Lorentz group $\mathrm{SO}(3, 1)$ with a 2-symplectic structure, and a 2-step nilpotent 6-dimensional connected and simply connected Lie group with both a 1-symplectic structure and a 2-symplectic structure., Comment: 16 pages

Mathematics - Differential Geometry - Abstract
Let $(G,\Omega)$ be a symplectic Lie group, i.e, a Lie group endowed with a left invariant symplectic form. If $\G$ is the Lie algebra of $G$ then we call $(\G,\omega=\Om(e))$ a symplectic Lie algebra. The product $\bullet$ on $\G$ defined by $3\omega\left(x\bullet y,z\right)=\omega\left([x,y],z\right)+\omega\left([x,z],y\right)$ extends to a left invariant connection $\na$ on $G$ which is torsion free and symplectic ($\na\Om=0)$. When $\na$ has vanishing curvature, we call $(G,\Omega)$ a flat symplectic Lie group and $(\G,\om)$ a flat symplectic Lie algebra. In this paper, we study flat symplectic Lie groups. We start by showing that the derived ideal of a flat symplectic Lie algebra is degenerate with respect to $\om$. We show that a flat symplectic Lie group must be nilpotent with degenerate center. This implies that the connection $\na$ of a flat symplectic Lie group is always complete. We prove that the double extension process can be applied to characterize all flat symplectic Lie algebras. More precisely, we show that every flat symplectic Lie algebra is obtained by a sequence of double extension of flat symplectic Lie algebras starting from $\{0\}$. As examples in low dimensions, we classify all flat symplectic Lie algebras of dimension $\leq6$.

Mathematics - Differential Geometry ,Mathematics - Symplectic Geometry - Abstract
Let $(M,\nabla,\langle\;,\;\rangle)$ be a manifold endowed with a flat torsionless connection $\nabla$ and a Riemannian metric $\langle\;,\;\rangle$ and $(T^kM)_{k\geq1}$ the sequence of tangent bundles given by $T^kM=T(T^{k-1}M)$ and $T^1M=TM$. We show that, for any $k\geq1$, $T^kM$ carries a Hermitian structure $(J_k,g_k)$ and a flat torsionless connection $\nabla^k$ and when $M$ is a Lie group and $(\nabla,\langle\;,\;\rangle)$ are left invariant there is a Lie group structure on each $T^kM$ such that $(J_k,g_k,\nabla^k)$ are left invariant. It is well-known that $(TM,J_1,g_1)$ is K\"ahler if and only if $\langle\;,\;\rangle$ is Hessian, i.e, in each system of affine coordinates $(x_1,\ldots,x_n)$, $\langle\partial_{x_i},\partial_{x_j}\rangle=\frac{\partial^2\phi}{\partial_{x_i}\partial_{x_j}}$. Having in mind many generalizations of the K\"ahler condition introduced recently, we give the conditions on $(\nabla,\langle\;,\;\rangle)$ so that $(TM,J_1,g_1)$ is balanced, locally conformally balanced, locally conformally K\"ahler, pluriclosed, Gauduchon, Vaismann or Calabi-Yau with torsion. Moreover, we can control at the level of $(\nabla,\langle\;,\;\rangle)$ the conditions insuring that some $(T^kM,J_k,g_k)$ or all of them satisfy a generalized K\"ahler condition. For instance, we show that there are some classes of $(M,\nabla,\langle\;,\;\rangle)$ such that, for any $k\geq1$, $(T^kM,J_k,g_k)$ is balanced non-K\"ahler and Calabi-Yau with torsion. By carefully studying the geometry of $(M,\nabla,\langle\;,\;\rangle)$, we develop a powerful machinery to build a large classes of generalized K\"ahler manifolds., Comment: 40 pages, 8 Tables

Mathematics - Differential Geometry ,Mathematics - Symplectic Geometry - Abstract
A Koszul-Vinberg manifold is a manifold $M$ endowed with a pair $(\nabla,h)$ where $\nabla$ is a flat connection and $h$ is a symmetric bivector field satisfying a generalized Codazzi equation. The geometry of such manifolds could be seen as a type of bridge between Poisson geometry and pseudo-Riemannian geometry, as has been highlighted in our previous article [\textit{Contravariant Pseudo-Hessian manifolds and their associated Poisson structures}. \rm{Differential Geometry and its Applications} (2020)]. Our objective here will be to pursue our study by focusing in this setting on submanifolds by taking into account some developments in the theory of Poisson submanifolds., Comment: 27 pages

Mathematics - Differential Geometry ,Mathematics - Symplectic Geometry - Abstract
$k$-Para-K\"ahler Lie algebras are a generalization of para-K\"ahler Lie algebras $(k=1)$ and constitute a subclass of $k$-symplectic Lie algebras. In this paper, we show that the characterization of para-K\"ahler Lie algebras as left symmetric bialgebras can be generalized to $k$-para-K\"ahler Lie algebras leading to the introduction of two new structures which are different but both generalize the notion of left symmetric algebra. This permits also the introduction of generalized $S$-matrices. We determine then all the $k$-symplectic Lie algebras of dimension $(k+1)$ and all the six dimensional 2-para-K\"ahler Lie algebras., Comment: 21 pages, 3 Tables

Mathematics - Differential Geometry ,Mathematics - Symplectic Geometry - Abstract
A contravariant pseudo-Hessian manifold is a manifold $M$ endowed with a pair $(\nabla,h)$ where $\nabla$ is a flat connection and $h$ is a symmetric bivector field satisfying a contravariant Codazzi equation. When $h$ is invertible we recover the known notion of pseudo-Hessian manifold. Contravariant pseudo-Hessian manifolds have properties similar to Poisson manifolds and, in fact, to any contravariant pseudo-Hessian manifold $(M,\nabla,h)$ we associate naturally a Poisson tensor on $TM$. We investigate these properties and we study in details many classes of such structures in order to highlight the richness of the geometry of these manifolds., Comment: Submitted

In this paper, we study Lorentzian left invariant Einstein metrics on nilpotent Lie groups. We show that if the center of such Lie groups is degenerate then they are Ricci-flat and their Lie algebras can be obtained by the double extension process from an abelian Euclidean Lie algebra. We show that all nilpotent Lie groups up to dimension $5$ endowed with a Lorentzian Einstein left invariant metric have degenerate center and we use this fact to give a complete classification of these metrics. We show that if $\mathfrak{g}$ is the Lie algebra of a nilpotent Lie group endowed with a Lorentzian left invariant Einstein metric with non zero scalar curvature then the center $Z(\mathfrak{g})$ of $\mathfrak{g}$ is nondegenerate Euclidean, the derived ideal $[\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{g}]$ is nondegenerate Lorentzian and $Z(\mathfrak{g})\subset[\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{g}]$. We give the first examples of Ricci-flat Lorentzian nilpotent Lie algebra with nondegenerate center., Comment: 22 pages

Mathematics - Differential Geometry ,17A32, 17B20 - Abstract
A linear Lie rack structure on a finite dimensional vector space $V$ is a Lie rack operation $(x,y)\mapsto x\rhd y$ pointed at the origin and such that for any $x$, the left translation $\mathrm{L}_x:y\mapsto \mathrm{L}_x(y)= x\rhd y$ is linear. A linear Lie rack operation $\rhd$ is called analytic if for any $x,y\in V$, \[ x\rhd y=y+\sum_{n=1}^\infty A_{n,1}(x,\ldots,x,y), \]where $A_{n,1}:V\times\ldots\times V\Leftarrow V$ is an $n+1$-multilinear map symmetric in the $n$ first arguments. In this case, $A_{1,1}$ is exactly the left Leibniz product associated to $\rhd$. Any left Leibniz algebra $(\mathfrak{h},[\;,\;])$ has a canonical analytic linear Lie rack structure given by $x\stackrel{c}{\rhd} y=\exp(\mathrm{ad}_x)(y)$, where $\mathrm{ad}_x(y)=[x,y]$. In this paper, we show that a sequence $(A_{n,1})_{n\geq1}$ of $n+1$-multilinear maps on a vector space $V$ defines an analytic linear Lie rack structure if and only if $[\;,\;]:=A_{1,1}$ is a left Leibniz bracket, the $A_{n,1}$ are invariant for $(V,[\;,\;]:)$ and satisfy a sequence of multilinear equations. Some of these equations have a cohomological interpretation and can be solved when the zero and the 1-cohomology of the left Leibniz algebra $(V,[\;,\;])$ are trivial. On the other hand, given a left Leibniz algebra $(\mathfrak{h},[\;,\;])$, we show that there is a large class of (analytic) linear Lie rack structures on $(\mathfrak{h},[\;,\;])$ which can be built from the canonical one and invariant multilinear symmetric maps on $\mathfrak{h}$. A left Leibniz algebra on which all the analytic linear Lie rack structures are build in this way will be called rigid. We use our characterizations of analytic linear Lie rack structures to show that $\mathfrak{sl}_2(\mathbb{R})$ and $\mathfrak{so}(3)$ are rigid. We conjecture that any simple Lie algebra is rigid as a left Leibniz algebra., Comment: Submitted, 23 pages

Mathematics - Differential Geometry ,22E15, 53C50 - Abstract
There are five unimodular simply connected three dimensional unimodular non abelian Lie groups: the nilpotent Lie group $\mathrm{Nil}$, the special unitary group $\mathrm{SU}(2)$, the universal covering group $\widetilde{\mathrm{PSL}}(2,\mathbb{R})$ of the special linear group, the solvable Lie group $\mathrm{Sol}$ and the universal covering group $\widetilde{\mathrm{E}_0}(2)$ of the connected component of the Euclidean group. For each $G$ among these Lie groups, we give explicitly the list of all Lorentzian left invariant metrics on $G$, up to un automorphism of $G$. Moreover, for any Lorentzian left invariant metric in this list we give its Ricci curvature, scalar curvature, the signature of the Ricci curvature and we exhibit some special features of these curvatures. Namely, we give all the metrics with constant curvature, semi-symmetric non locally symmetric metrics and the Ricci solitons., Comment: 10 pages submitted

Mathematics - Differential Geometry - Abstract
Let $(M,\langle,\rangle_{TM})$ be a Riemannian manifold. It is well-known that the Sasaki metric on $TM$ is very rigid but it has nice properties when restricted to $T^{(r)}M=\{u\in TM,|u|=r \}$. In this paper, we consider a general situation where we replace $TM$ by a vector bundle $E\longrightarrow M$ endowed with a Euclidean product $\langle,\rangle_E$ and a connection $\nabla^E$ which preserves $\langle,\rangle_E$. We define the Sasaki metric on $E$ and we consider its restriction $h$ to $E^{(r)}=\{a\in E,\langle a,a\rangle_E=r^2 \}$. We study the Riemannian geometry of $(E^{(r)},h)$ generalizing many results first obtained on $T^{(r)}M$ and establishing new ones. We apply the results obtained in this general setting to the class of Euclidean Atiyah vector bundles introduced by the authors in arXiv preprint arXiv:1808.01254 (2018). Finally, we prove that any unimodular three dimensional Lie group $G$ carries a left invariant Riemannian metric such that $(T^{(1)}G,h)$ has a positive scalar curvature., Comment: 25 pages

Mathematics - Differential Geometry - Abstract
Natural metrics (Sasaki metric, Cheeger-Gromoll metric, Kaluza-Klein metrics etc.. ) on the tangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold is a central topic in Riemannian geometry. Generalized Cheeger-Gromoll metrics is a family of natural metrics $h_{p,q}$ depending on two parameters with $p\in\mathbb{R}$ and $q\geq0$. This family has been introduced recently and possesses interesting geometric properties. If $p=q=0$ we recover the Sasaki metric and when $p=q=1$ we recover the classical Cheeger-Gromoll metric. A transitive Euclidean Lie algebroid is a transitive Lie algebroid with an Euclidean product on its total space. In this paper, we show that natural metrics can be built in a natural way on the total space of transitive Euclidean Lie algebroids. Then we study the properties of generalized Cheeger-Gromoll metrics on this new context. We show a rigidity result of this metrics which generalizes so far all rigidity results known in the case of the tangent bundle. We show also that considering natural metrics on the total space of transitive Euclidean Lie algebroids opens new interesting horizons. For instance, Atiyah Lie algebroids constitute an important class of transitive Lie algebroids and we will show that natural metrics on the total space of Atiyah Euclidean Lie algebroids have interesting properties. In particular, if $M$ is a Riemannian manifold of dimension $n$, then the Atiyah Lie algebroid associated to the $\mathrm{O}(n)$-principal bundle of orthonormal frames over $M$ possesses a family depending on a parameter $k>0$ of transitive Euclidean Lie algebroids structures say $AO(M,k)$. When $M$ is a space form of constant curvature $c$, we show that there exists two constants $C_n<0$ and $K(n,c)>0$ such that $(AO(M,k),h_{1,1})$ is a Riemannian manifold with positive scalar curvature if and only if $c>C_n$ and $0

Let $M$ be a smooth manifold and $\Gamma$ a group acting on $M$ by diffeomorphisms; which means that there is a group morphism $\rho:\Gamma\rightarrow \mathrm{Diff}(M)$ from $\Gamma$ to the group of diffeomorphisms of $M$. For any such action we associate a cohomology $\mathrm{H}(\Omega(M)_\Gamma)$ which we call the cohomology of $\Gamma$-coinvariant forms. This is the cohomology of the graded vector space generated by the differentiable forms $\omega -\rho(\gamma)^*\omega$ where $\omega$ is a differential form with compact support and $\gamma\in \Gamma$. The present paper is an introduction to the study of this cohomology. More precisely, we study the relations between this cohomology, the de Rham cohomology and the cohomology of invariant forms $\mathrm{H}(\Omega(M)^\Gamma)$ in the case of isometric actions on compact Riemannian oriented manifolds and in the case of properly discontinuous actions on manifolds., Comment: To appear in Journal of Lie theory

Mathematics - Differential Geometry - Abstract
A flat pseudo-Euclidean Lie algebra is a real Lie algebra with a non degenerate symmetric bilinear form and a left symmetric product whose the commutator is the Lie bracket and such that the left multiplications are skew-symmetric. We show that the center of a flat pseudo-Euclidean nilpotent Lie algebra of signature $(2,n-2)$ must be degenerate and all flat pseudo-Euclidean nilpotent Lie algebras of signature $(2,n-2)$ can be obtained by using the double extension process from flat Lorentzian nilpotent Lie algebras. We show also that the center of a flat pseudo-Euclidean 2-step nilpotent Lie algebra is degenerate and all these Lie algebras are obtained by using a sequence of double extension from an abelian Lie algebra. In particular, we determine all flat pseudo-Euclidean 2-step nilpotent Lie algebras of signature $(2,n-2)$. The paper contains also some examples in low dimension.

In this paper, we generalize all the results obtained on para-K\"ahler Lie algebras in Journal of Algebra {\bf 436} (2015) 61-101 to para-K\"ahler Lie algebroids. In particular, we study exact para-K\"ahler Lie algebroids as a generalization of exact para-K\"ahler Lie algebras. This study leads to a natural generalization of pseudo-Hessian manifolds. Generalized pseudo-Hessian manifolds have many similarities with Poisson manifolds. We explore these similarities which, among others, leads to a powerful machinery to build examples of non trivial pseudo-Hessian structures. Namely, we will show that given a finite dimensional commutative and associative algebra $(\mathcal{A},.)$, the orbits of the action $\Phi$ of $(\mathcal{A},+)$ on $\mathcal{A}^*$ given by $\Phi(a,\mu)=\exp(L_a^*)(\mu)$ are pseudo-Hessian manifolds, where $L_a(b)=a.b$. We illustrate this result by considering many examples of associative commutative algebras an show that the pseudo-Hessian manifolds obtained are very interesting., Comment: 23 pages

A Lorentzian flat Lie group is a Lie group $G$ with a flat left invariant metric $\mu$ with signature $(1,n-1)=(-,+,\ldots,+)$. The Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}=T_eG$ of $G$ endowed with $\langle\;,\;\rangle=\mu(e)$ is called flat Lorentzian Lie algebra. It is known that the metric of a flat Lorentzian Lie group is geodesically complete if and only if its Lie algebra is unimodular. In this paper, we characterise nonunimodular Lorentzian flat Lie algebras as double extensions (in the sense of Aubert-Medina \cite{Aub-Med}) of Riemannian flat Lie algebras. As application of this result, we give all nonunimodular Lorentzian flat Lie algebras up to dimension 4., Comment: 12 pages some modifications of the first version

Let $(M,\pi,\mathcal{D})$ be a Poisson manifold endowed with a flat, torsion-free contravariant connection. We show that if $\mathcal{D}$ is an $\mathcal{F}$-connection then there exists a tensor $\mathbf{T}$ such that $\mathcal{D}\mathbf{T}$ is the metacurvature tensor introduced by E. Hawkins in his work on noncommutative deformations. We compute $\mathbf{T}$ and the metacurvature tensor in this case, and show that if $\mathbf{T}=0$ then, near any regular point, $\pi$ and $\mathcal{D}$ are defined in a natural way by a Lie algebra action and a solution of the classical Yang-Baxter equation. Moreover, when $\mathcal{D}$ is the contravariant Levi-Civita connection associated to $\pi$ and a Riemannian metric, the Lie algebra action preserves the metric., Comment: 19 pages

Let $G$ be a connected Lie group and $\mathfrak{g}$ its Lie algebra. We denote by $\nabla^0$ the torsion free bi-invariant linear connection on $G$ given by $\nabla^0_XY=\frac12[X,Y],$ for any left invariant vector fields $X,Y$. A Poisson structure on $\mathfrak{g}$ is a commutative and associative product on $\mathfrak{g}$ for which $\mathrm{ad}_u$ is a derivation, for any $u\in\mathfrak{g}$. A torsion free bi-invariant linear connections on $G$ which have the same curvature as $\nabla^0$ is called special. We show that there is a bijection between the space of special connections on $G$ and the space of Poisson structures on $\mathfrak{g}$. We compute the holonomy Lie algebra of a special connection and we show that the Poisson structures associated to special connections which have the same holonomy Lie algebra as $\nabla^0$ possess interesting properties. Finally, we study Poisson structures on a Lie algebra and we give a large class of examples which gives, of course, a large class of special connections., Comment: 31 pages, This research was conducted within the framework of Action concert\'ee CNRST-CNRS Project SPM04/13

We study Lie algebras admitting para-K\"ahler and hyper-para-K\"ahler structures. We give new characterizations of these Lie algebras and we develop many methods to build large classes of examples. Bai considered para-K\"ahler Lie algebras as left symmetric bialgebras. We reconsider this point of view and improve it in order to obtain some new results. The study of para-K\"ahler and hyper-para-K\"ahler is intimately linked to the study of left symmetric algebras and, in particular, those admitting invariant symplectic forms. In this paper, we give many new classes of left symmetric algebras and a complete description of all associative algebras admitting an invariant symplectic form. We give also all four dimensional hyper-para-K\"ahler Lie algebras.

We give a method to lift $(2,0)$-tensors fields on a manifold $M$ to build symplectic forms on $TM$. Conversely, we show that any symplectic form $\Om$ on $TM$ is symplectomorphic, in a neighborhood of the zero section, to a symplectic form built naturally from three $(2,0)$-tensor fields associated to $\Om$., Comment: Submitted to C.R.A.S

We call the Lie algebra of a Lie group with a left invariant pseudo-Riemannian flat metric pseudo-Riemannian flat Lie algebra. We give a new proof of a classical result of Milnor on Riemannian flat Lie algebras. We reduce the study of Lorentzian flat Lie algebras to those with trivial center or those with degenerate center. We show that the double extension process can be used to construct all Lorentzian flat Lie algebras with degenerate center generalizing a result of Aubert-Medina on Lorentzian flat nilpotent Lie algebras. Finally, we give the list of Lorentzian flat Lie algebras with degenerate center up to dimension 6., Comment: 17 pages

We determine all Ricci flat left invariant Lorentzian metrics on simply connected 2-step nilpotent Lie groups. We show that the $2k+1$-dimensional Heisenberg Lie group $H_{2k+1}$ carries a Ricci flat left invariant Lorentzian metric if and only if $k=1$. We show also that for any $2\leq q\leq k$, $H_{2k+1}$ carries a Ricci flat left invariant pseudo-Riemannian metric of signature $(q,2k+1-q)$ and we give explicite examples of such metrics., Comment: Title modified, some explicites examples are given and Section 6 deleted

We study the triple $(G,\pi,\prs)$ where $G$ is a connected and simply connected Lie group, $\pi$ and $\prs$ are, respectively, a multiplicative Poisson tensor and a left invariant Riemannian metric on $G$ such that the necessary conditions, introduced by Hawkins, to the existence of a non commutative deformation (in the direction of $\pi$) of the spectrale triple associated to $\prs$ are satisfied. We show that the geometric problem of the classification of such triple $(G,\pi,\prs)$ is equivalent to an algebraic one. We solve this algebraic problem in low dimensions and we give the list of all $(G,\pi,\prs)$ satisfying Hawkins's conditions, up to dimension four., Comment: 23 pages

A Riemann-Lie algebra is a Lie algebra $\cal G$ such that its dual ${\cal G}^*$ carries a Riemannian metric compatible (in the sense introduced by th author in C. R. Acad. Paris, t. 333, S\'erie I, (2001) 763-768) with the canonical linear Poisson sructure of ${\cal G}^*$. The notion of Riemann-Lie algebra has its origins in the study, by the author, of Riemann-Poisson manifolds (see Preprint math.DG/0206102 to appear in Differential Geometry and its Applications). In this paper, we show that, for a Lie group $G$, its Lie algebra $\cal G$ carries a structure of Riemann-Lie algebra iff $G$ carries a flat left-invariant Riemannian metric. We use this characterization to construct a huge number of Riemann-Poisson Lie groups (a Riemann-Poisson Lie group is a Poisson Lie group endowed with a left-invariant Riemannian metric compatible with the Poisson structure)., Comment: 17 pages

Riemann Poisson manifolds were introduced by the author in [1] and studied in more details in [2]. K\"ahler-Riemann foliations form an interesting subset of the Riemannian foliations with remarkable properties (see [3]). In this paper we will show that to give a regular Riemann Poisson structure on a manifold $M$ is equivalent to to give a K\"ahler-Riemann foliation on $M$ such that the leafwise symplectic form is invariant with respect to all local foliate perpendicular vector fields. We show also that the sum of the vector space of leafwise cohomology and the vector space of basic forms is a subspace of the space of Poisson cohomology., Comment: 12 pages

The notion of Poisson manifold with compatible pseudo-metric was introduced by the author in [1]. In this paper, we introduce a new class of Lie algebras which we call a pseudo-Rieamannian Lie algebras. The two notions are strongly related: we prove that a linear Poisson structure on the dual of a Lie algebra has a compatible pseudo-metric if and only if the Lie algebra is a pseudo-Riemannian Lie algebra, and that the Lie algebra obtained by linearizing at a point a Poisson manifold with compatible pseudo-metric is a pseudo-Riemannian Lie algebra. Furthermore, we give some properties of the symplectic leaves of such manifolds, and we prove that every Poisson manifold with compatible metric (every Riemann-Lie algebra) is unimodular. As a final, we classify all pseudo-Riemannian Lie algebras of dimension 2 and 3., Comment: 13 pages

Let $(M,\nabla,\langle\;,\;\rangle)$ be a manifold endowed with a flat torsionless connection $\nabla$ and a Riemannian metric $\langle\;,\;\rangle$ and $(T^kM)_{k\geq1}$ the sequence of tangent bundles given by $T^kM=T(T^{k-1}M)$ and $T^1M=TM$. We show that, for any $k\geq1$, $T^kM$ carries a Hermitian structure $(J_k,g_k)$ and a flat torsionless connection $\nabla^k$ and when $M$ is a Lie group and $(\nabla,\langle\;,\;\rangle)$ are left invariant there is a Lie group structure on each $T^kM$ such that $(J_k,g_k,\nabla^k)$ are left invariant. It is well-known that $(TM,J_1,g_1)$ is K\"ahler if and only if $\langle\;,\;\rangle$ is Hessian, i.e, in each system of affine coordinates $(x_1,\ldots,x_n)$, $\langle\partial_{x_i},\partial_{x_j}\rangle=\frac{\partial^2\phi}{\partial_{x_i}\partial_{x_j}}$. Having in mind many generalizations of the K\"ahler condition introduced recently, we give the conditions on $(\nabla,\langle\;,\;\rangle)$ so that $(TM,J_1,g_1)$ is balanced, locally conformally balanced, locally conformally K\"ahler, pluriclosed, Gauduchon, Vaismann or Calabi-Yau with torsion. Moreover, we can control at the level of $(\nabla,\langle\;,\;\rangle)$ the conditions insuring that some $(T^kM,J_k,g_k)$ or all of them satisfy a generalized K\"ahler condition. For instance, we show that there are some classes of $(M,\nabla,\langle\;,\;\rangle)$ such that, for any $k\geq1$, $(T^kM,J_k,g_k)$ is balanced non-K\"ahler and Calabi-Yau with torsion. By carefully studying the geometry of $(M,\nabla,\langle\;,\;\rangle)$, we develop a powerful machinery to build a large classes of generalized K\"ahler manifolds., Comment: 40 pages, 8 Tables
