Generalized normal homogeneous spheres $S^{4n+3}$ with greatest connected motion group $Sp(n+1)\cdot U(1)$
V. N. Berestovskiĭ Omsk Branch of Sobolev Institute of Mathematics, Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Omsk, Russia
Abstract:
We find all (new) $\delta$-homogeneous invariant Riemannian metrics (including the metrics that are not normal homogeneous) on the spheres of dimensions $4n+3$, $n\ge1$, with the greatest Lie group of isometries equal to $Sp(n+1)\times U(1)$ and all homogeneous (non-simply-connected) lens spaces covered by them. All $\delta$-homogeneous Riemannian spaces considered here have positive sectional curvatures and zero Euler characteristic. The answers are found to some previously posed questions.
Keywords:
geodesic orbit space, geodesic vector, $\delta$-homogeneous space, $\delta$-vector, sphere, naturally reductive space, (generalized) normal homogeneous Riemannian space, homogeneous Riemannian fibration, Riemannian submersion, division ring of quaternions, Euler characteristic.
