The canonical-connection Ambrose–Singer conjecture
The canonical-connection Ambrose–Singer conjecture
Let be a compact Hermitian manifold. For real numbers and , let be the -Gauduchon connection, and define the canonical metric connection
Here is the Levi-Civita connection, and ranges over . The distinguished connections are , , and . Canonical-connection Ambrose–Singer conjecture. For any canonical connection other than , , and , if is Ambrose–Singer, then is Kähler. In particular, if such a is Ambrose–Singer and Ricci flat, then it is flat. This extends the proposed classification of Ambrose–Singer canonical connections beyond the Bismut, plus, and minus connections. The source presents it as a speculation, and no resolution is supplied.
