Abstract

We study the curvature of almost Hermitian manifolds and their special analogues via intrinsic torsion and representation theory. By deriving different formulae for the skew-symmetric part of the *-Ricci curvature, we find that some of these contributions are dependent on the approach used and, for the almost Hermitian case, we obtain tables that differ from those of Falcitelli, Farinola, and Salamon. We show how the exterior algebra may be used to explain some of these variations.
