Symmetric space — In differential geometry, representation theory and harmonic analysis, a symmetric space is a smooth manifold whose group of symmetries contains an inversion symmetry about every point. There are two ways to make this precise. In Riemannian… … Wikipedia
Hermitian symmetric space — In mathematics, a Hermitian symmetric space is a Kähler manifold M which, as a Riemannian manifold, is a Riemannian symmetric space. Equivalently, M is a Riemannian symmetric space with a parallel complex structure with respect to which the… … Wikipedia
Quaternion-Kähler manifold — In differential geometry, a quaternion Kähler manifold (or quaternionic Kähler manifold) is a Riemannian manifold whose Riemannian holonomy group is a subgroup of Sp( n )·Sp(1). Another, more explicit, definition, uses a 3 dimensional subbundle H … Wikipedia
Pseudo-Riemannian manifold — In differential geometry, a pseudo Riemannian manifold (also called a semi Riemannian manifold) is a generalization of a Riemannian manifold. It is one of many things named after Bernhard Riemann. The key difference between the two is that on a… … Wikipedia
Differentiable manifold — A nondifferentiable atlas of charts for the globe. The results of calculus may not be compatible between charts if the atlas is not differentiable. In the middle chart the Tropic of Cancer is a smooth curve, whereas in the first it has a sharp… … Wikipedia
Symplectic manifold — In mathematics, a symplectic manifold is a smooth manifold, M, equipped with a closed nondegenerate differential 2 form, ω, called the symplectic form. The study of symplectic manifolds is called symplectic geometry or symplectic topology.… … Wikipedia
Complex manifold — In differential geometry, a complex manifold is a manifold with an atlas of charts to the open unit disk[1] in Cn, such that the transition maps are holomorphic. The term complex manifold is variously used to mean a complex manifold in the sense… … Wikipedia
Holonomy — Parallel transport on a sphere depends on the path. Transporting from A → N → B → A yields a vector different from the initial vector. This failure to return to the initial vector is measured by the holonomy of the connection. In differential… … Wikipedia

Isotropic coordinates — In the theory of Lorentzian manifolds, spherically symmetric spacetimes admit a family of nested round spheres . There are several different types of coordinate chart which are adapted to this family of nested spheres; the best known is the… … Wikipedia
Aspherical space — In topology, an aspherical space is a topological space with all higher homotopy groups equal to {0}. If one works with CW complexes, one can reformulate this condition: an aspherical CW complex is a CW complex whose universal cover is… … Wikipedia
