These curves are called equigeodesics. The tangent space of such flag manifolds splits into six isotropy summands, which are in one-to-one correspondence with $t$-roots. Also, these spaces are a generalization of the exceptional full flag manifold $G_2/T$. We give a characterization for structural equigeodesics for flag manifolds with $G_2$-type $t$-roots, and we give for each such flag manifold, a list of subspaces in which the vectors are structural equigeodesic vectors.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-02-26T15:18:46.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "53C25", "53C30", "13P10", "65H10", "68W30" ], "keywords": [ "generalized flag manifolds", "exceptional full flag manifold", "structural equigeodesic vectors", "flag manifolds splits", "tangent space" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 14, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
