      Let \(M\) be either a rank one Riemannian symmetric space or a simply connected pseudo-Riemannian space of constant curvature. The authors study the space \(L(M)\) of oriented geodesics on \(M\). This is a smooth homogeneous manifold. Using this fact, the authors describe all invariant symplectic and (para)complex structures, pseudo-Riemannian metrics, and (para)Kähler structure on \(L(M)\).
