โฆ Synopsis
An affine manifold is called a manifold with dilations if its holonomy is contained in a group of the form G = N x (A x K) c Aff(@), w h ere N is a nilpotent group acting simply transitively on IEe; K is a compact subgroup, and A is a l-parameter subgroup of "dilations". Suppose (Me, G) is a compact connected affine manifold with dilations of dimension 2 2. Assume that the holonomy group acts on the image of a development map as a covering transformation. We prove that: If M is geodesically incomplete, then it is finitely covered by a Hopf manifold, (@ -0)/Z g S' x Se-'. 0 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.

Every affine map between two affinely connected manifolds is the composition of an affine submersion and an affine immersion; and the inverse image of an autoparallel submanifold by such maps is the union of autoparallel submanifolds. Furthermore, the Lie group of all affine transformations of an af
