  • We consider the connections $\nabla$ on the Rizza manifold (M, J, L) satisfying ${\nabla}G=0\;and\;{\nabla}J=0$. Among them, we derive a Lichnerowicz connection from the Cart an connection and characterize it in terms of torsion. Generalizing Kahler condition in Hermitian geometry, we define a Kahler condition for Rizza manifolds. For such manifolds, we show that the Cartan connection and the Lichnerowicz connection coincide and that the almost complex structure J is integrable.

  • The characteristic connection is a good substitute for Levi-Civita connection in studying non-integrable geometries. In this paper we consider the homogeneous space $U(3)/(U(1){\times}U(1){\times}U(1))$ with a one-parameter family of Hermitian structures. We prove that the one-parameter family of Hermtian structures admit a characteristic connection. We also compute the torsion of the characteristic connecitons.

  • The notion of the almost Hermitian Finsler manifold admitting an almost complex structure $f^i_j(x)$ was, for the first time, introduced by G. B. Rizza [8]. It is known that the almost Hermitian Finsler manifold (or a Rizza manifold) has been studied by Y. Ichijyo [2] and H. Hukui [1]. In those papers, the almost Hermitian Finsler manifold which the h-covariant derivative of the almost complex structure $f^i_j(x)$ with respect to the Cartan's Finsler connection vanishes was defined as the Kaehlerian Finsler manifold. The nearly Kaehlerian Finsler manifold was defined and studied by the former of authors [7]. The present paper is the continued study of above paper.

  • The hermitian structures on complex manifolds have been studied by several mathematicians ([1], [2], and [3]), and the Kähler structure on hermitian manifolds have been so much too ([6], [12], and [15]). There has been some gradual progress in studying the invariant forms on Grassmann manifolds ([17]). The purpose of this dissertation is to prove the Theorem 3.4 and the Theorem 4.7, with relation to the nature of complex Grassmann manifolds. In $\S$ 2. in order to prove the Theorem 4.7, which will be explicated further in $\S$ 4, the concepts of the hermitian structure, connection and curvature have been defined. and the characteristic nature about these were proved. (Proposition 2.3, 2.4, 2.9, 2.11, and 2.12) Two characteristics were proved in $\S$ 3. They are almost not proved before: particularly. we proved the Theorem 3.3 : $G_{k}(C^{n+k})=\frac{GL(n+k,C)}{GL(k,n,C)}=\frac{U(n+k)}{U(k){\times}U(n)}$ In $\S$ 4. we explained and proved the Theorem 4. 7 : i) Complex Grassmann manifolds are Kahlerian. ii) This Kähler form is $\pi$-fold of curvature form in hyperplane section bundle. Prior to this proof. some propositions and lemmas were proved at the same time. (Proposition 4.2, Lemma 4.3, Corollary 4.4 and Lemma 4.5).
