Leibniz algebroids, generalized Bismut connections and Einstein-Hilbert actions (Q490954)

This paper starts to develop a theory of connections, torsions and curvature for local Leibniz algebroids. First, the author introduced the notion of connections, torsions and curvature for Leibniz algebroids. Then, they focused on a simple example. In this example, the Bismut connection is generalized. General definitions that lead to a scalar curvature of the form \(R+(dC)^2\) are obtained.
