We find a family of Kahler metrics invariantly defined on the radius $r_0>0$ tangent disk bundle ${{cal T}_{M,r_0}}$ of any given real space-form $M$ or any of its quotients by discrete groups of isometries. Such metrics are complete in the non-negative curvature case and non-complete in the negative curvature case. If $dim M=2$ and $M$ has constant sectional curvature $K eq0$, then the Kahler manifolds ${{cal T}_{M,r_0}}$ have holonomy $mathrm{SU}(2)$; hence they are Ricci-flat. For $M=S^2$, just this dimension, the metric coincides with the Stenzel metric on the tangent manifold ${{cal T}_{S^2}}$, giving us a new most natural description of this well-know metric.

We find a new class of invariant metrics existing on the tangent bundle of any given almost-Hermitian manifold. We focus here on the case of Riemannian surfaces, which yield new examples of Kahlerian Ricci-flat manifolds in four real dimensions.
We establish a new criterion for a compatible almost complex structure on a symplectic four-manifold to be integrable and hence Kahler. Our main theorem shows that the existence of three linearly independent closed J-anti-invariant two-forms implies the integrability of the almost complex structure. This proves the conjecture of Draghici-Li-Zhang in the almost-Kahler case
This paper focuses on the study of open curves in a manifold M, and proposes a reparameterization invariant metric on the space of such paths. We use the square root velocity function (SRVF) introduced by Srivastava et al. in [11] to define a reparameterization invariant metric on the space of immersions M = Imm([0,1], M) by pullback of a metric on the tangent bundle TM derived from the Sasaki metric. We observe that such a natural choice of Riemannian metric on TM induces a first-order Sobolev metric on M with an extra term involving the origins, and leads to a distance which takes into account the distance between the origins and the distance between the SRV representations of the curves. The geodesic equations for this metric are given, as well as an idea of how to compute the exponential map for observed trajectories in applications. This provides a generalized theoretical SRV framework for curves lying in a general manifold M .
We prove that the horizontal and vertical distributions of the tangent bundle with the Sasaki metric are isocline, the distributions given by the kernels of the horizontal and vertical lifts of the contact form $omega$ from the Heisenberg manifold $(H_3,g)$ to $(TH_3,g^S)$ are not totally geodesic, and the distributions $F^H=L(E_1^H,E_2^H)$ and $F^V=L(E_1^V,E_2^V)$ are totally geodesic, but they are not isocline. We obtain that the horizontal and natural lifts of the curves from the Heisenberg manifold $(H_3,g)$, are geodesics in the tangent bundle endowed with the Sasaki metric $(TH_3,g^s)$, if and only if the curves considered on the base manifold are geodesics. Then, we get two particular examples of geodesics from $(TH_3,g^s)$, which are not horizontal or natural lifts of geodesics from the base manifold $(H_3,g)$.
Let $Kbackslash G$ be an irreducible Hermitian symmetric space of noncompact type and $Gamma ,subset, G$ a closed torsionfree discrete subgroup. Let $X$ be a compact Kahler manifold and $rho, :, pi_1(X, x_0),longrightarrow, Gamma$ a homomorphism such that the adjoint action of $rho(pi_1(X, x_0))$ on $text{Lie}(G)$ is completely reducible. A theorem of Corlette associates to $rho$ a harmonic map $X, longrightarrow, Kbackslash G/Gamma$. We give a criterion for this harmonic map to be holomorphic. We also give a criterion for it to be anti--holomorphic.
