Hermitian \(f\)-structures on 6-dimensional filiform Lie groups (Q309436): Difference between revisions

Recall that an \(f\)-structure on a manifold \(M\) is a field of endomorphisms \(f\) acting in the tangent bundle of \(M\) and satisfying the condition \(f^3+f=0\). An \(f\)-structure on a Riemannian manifold \((M,g)\) is called a metric \(f\)-structure, if \(g(fX,Y)+g(X,fY)=0\), for any smooth vector fields \(X,Y\) on \(M\). A Lie algebra \(\mathfrak g\) of dimension \(m\geq 3\) is called filiform if \(\dim\mathfrak g^k=[\mathfrak g,\mathfrak g^{k-1}]=m-k-1\) for \(k=1,\dots,m-1\). A Lie group \(G\) is called filiform if its Lie algebra \(\mathfrak g\) is filiform. A classification of \(6\)-dimensional nilpotent Lie algebras \(\mathfrak g\) is known. Among \(22\) types of indecomposable \(6\)-dimensional nilpotent Lie algebras by this classification there exist \(5\) filiform Lie algebras. The author considers each filiform Lie algebra individually and left-invariant metric \(f\)-structures on the corresponding filiform Lie group. He finds appropriate conditions in terms of \(\mathrm{Ker }f\) under which special left-invariant metric \(f\)-structures on the corresponding Lie group \(G\) belong to the class of Hermitian \(f\)-structures. Particular examples of the corresponding \(f\)-structures are also presented.
