Elementary Relative Tractor Calculus for Legendrean contact structures (2205.05326v2)
Abstract: For a manifold $M$ endowed with a Legendrean (or Lagrangean) contact structure $E\oplus F \subset TM$, we give an elementary construction of an invariant partial connection on the quotient bundle $TM/F$. This permits us to develop a na\"{i}ve version of relative tractor calculus and to construct a second order invariant differential operator, which turns out to be the first relative BGG operator induced by the partial connection.
