Polarization complete left invariant connections
Bal\'azs Forman, R\'obert Sz\H{o}ke
https://arxiv.org/abs/2609.15673 https://arxiv.org/pdf/2609.15673 https://arxiv.org/html/2609.15673

Abstract: Let $(M,\nabla)$ be a real analytic Koszul manifold. An adapted complex structure (ac-structure) on a neighborhood $N$ of the zero section in $TM$ is a complex structure on $N$ such that the leaves of the Levi-Civita foliation are holomorphic curves. More generally, a complex polarization $P$ on $N$ is called an ac-polarization if the leaves of the Levi-Civita foliation are tangential to $P$. The bundle of (1,0) tangent vectors of an ac-structure is an ac-polarization.
The connection is called entire (resp. polarization complete or simply $\mathcal P$-complete) if the ac-structure (resp. the ac-polarization) exists on $TM$. Although on a small enough $N$ an ac-structure always exists, entire connections are rear and if a maximal domain of definition $N_{max}$ of an ac-structure exists (different from $TM$), $N_{max}$ is a complicated domain. On the other hand in many cases the associated ac-polarization can be extended to the whole $TM$. The main purpose of the paper is to gain better understanding of this phenomenon using a generalized version of the polar map.
As special cases we show that many of those metrics studied by Aslam-Burns-Irvine and Halverscheid-Iannuzzi although are not entire but are $\mathcal P$-complete.

Ricci flow with metric torsion on surfaces of positive Euler characteristic

Abstract: We study an adapted Ricci flow of connections with metric torsion on surfaces with positive Euler characteristic. We first prove that there do not exist any nontrivial solitons of the flow on the $2$-sphere thus confirming a conjecture of Branding--Kr\"oncke (J. Geom. Anal. 27.3 (2017), arXiv:1606.09121). We give an explicit family of torsion data for which the corresponding global solutions fail to converge on $\mathbb{S}^2$. Nevertheless, we provide several sufficient conditions for the convergence of the flow to a stationary point. We first prove that the normalized adapted Ricci flow always converges on $\mathbb{RP}^2$, which completely answers a question in the paper of Branding and Kr\"oncke. Using this, we deduce that the flow converges on $\mathbb{S}^2$ whenever the initial metric and the torsion one-form are antipodally symmetric. We also prove a {\L}ojasiewicz--Simon gradient inequality for the flow and use it to prove convergence to a stationary point provided the solution is close to an arbitrary stationary point.
