Abstract

We study the geometry of n-Grassmannian equivalent connections, that is linear connections without torsion admitting the same equation of n-dimensional totally geodesic submanifolds. We introduce the n-Grassmannian structure as a distinguished distribution on the Grassmann bundle, and then compute the n-Grassmannian invariants, recovering for n = 1 the projective invariants of Thomas. © de Gruyter 2008.
