Certain Characteristics of the Curvature Tensor of an Affinely Connected Manifold
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 20 November 2018
Abstract
We show how flatness and symmetry of an affinely connected manifold relate themselves to the symmetry of the curvature tensor and its covariant derivative in certain slots. Then we reduce Bianchi first identity to the same form as when the connexion is symmetric; even when the connexion is non-symmetric by considering other conditions.
