The parallel transport map over reductive homogeneous space

  • Masahiro Morimoto

摘要

We show that the parallel transport map over a reductive homogeneous space with natural torsion-free connection becomes an affine submersion with horizontal distribution. This generalizes one of the main results in the author’s previous paper in the case of affine symmetric spaces. We also prove the compactness of the shape operators of the submanifold lifted by the parallel transport map. This improves a previous result by the author and generalizes some results of Terng-Thorbergsson and of Koike. Furthermore we propose two definitions for the regularized mean curvatures of affine Fredholm submanifolds in Hilbertable spaces and discuss their relations to the parallel transport map. In particular, each fiber of the parallel transport map over a reductive homogeneous space is shown to be minimal in both senses.
