“Invariant Connections on Non-Symmetric Isotropy Irreducible Homogeneous Spaces”

After reviewing the situation with the symmetric spaces, we present a classification of G-invariant affine connections on non-symmetric strongly isotropy irreducible homogeneous Riemannian manifolds. In the case of metric connections, we investigate geometric properties such as being Einstein with skew-torsion.

Joint work with Ioannis Chrysikos and Christian Gustad.
