“…In the case I < −1, we obtain a new homogeneous representation of the contact metric (κ, µ) manfolds M with I M < −1, different from the Lie group representation furnished by Boeckx. Actually these models can be geometrically interpreted also as tangent hyperquadric bundle over Lorentzian space forms, as showed in [17].…”
Section: Now We Consider the Natural Decomposition Ofmentioning
We present a classification of the complete, simply connected, contact metric (κ, µ)-spaces as homogeneous contact metric manifolds, by studying the base space of their canonical fibration. According to the value of the Boeckx invariant, it turns out that the base is a complexification or a paracomplexification of a sphere or of a hyperbolic space. In particular, we obtain a new homogeneous representation of the contact metric (κ, µ)-spaces with Boeckx invariant less than −1. (2000): Primary 53C25, 53D10; Secondary 53C35, 53C30.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
