Most natural connection on Lie group: comparison of different pictures
Let $G$ be a Lie group (not necessarily compact). One can equip $G$ with the left invariant metric (or
right invariant but in general there is no biinvariant metric in the noncompact case). Once the …

Generalized Dirac operators
So far I met three definitions of the so called generalized Dirac operator(or Dirac type operators. Everything takes place over Riemannian manifols $M$ and we have smooth hermitian vector bundle $S \t …

Manifolds admitting flat connections
Question 2 Is it possible to find a manifold $M$ with the following property: for each Riemannian metric tensor $g$ the corresponding Levi Civita connection is not flat but still there are flat torsion-free connections … Question 3 Is it possible to find a manifold $M$ with the following property: each torsion free connection cannot be flat but still there are some flat connections on $M$? …
