Abstract

In this paper, we consider the tangent bundle TM of a Riemannian manifold (M, g) with the Sasaki metric G and using the Cauchy-Kowalevski Theorem, we answer the question of how many analytic statistical structures are there on (TM, G). Also, we study the Ricci tensor of linear affine connections on the tangent bundle TM. In addition, we answer the question of how many Ricci flat affine connections with and without torsion are there on the tangent bundle.
