Abstract
<abstract><p>The real (compact) Stiefel manifold realized as set of orthonormal frames is considered as a pseudo-Riemannian submanifold of an open subset of a vector space equipped with a multi-parameter family of pseudo-Riemannian metrics. This family contains several well-known metrics from the literature. Explicit matrix-type formulas for various differential geometric quantities are derived. The orthogonal projections onto tangent spaces are determined. Moreover, by computing the metric spray, the geodesic equation as an explicit second order matrix valued ODE is obtained. In addition, for a multi-parameter subfamily, explicit matrix-type formulas for pseudo-Riemannian gradients and pseudo-Riemannian Hessians are derived. Furthermore, an explicit expression for the second fundamental form and an explicit formula for the Levi-Civita covariant derivative are obtained. Detailed proofs are included.</p></abstract>
