Canonical Connections and Algebraic Ricci Solitons on Lorentzian 4-Dimensional Nilpotent Lie Groups
As on arXiv
Abstract
In this paper, we compute the canonical and Kobayashi-Nomizu connections, together with their curvature, on Lorentzian four-dimensional nilpotent Lie groups endowed with a product structure. We also classify the algebraic Ricci solitons associated with these connections.
