$\mathbb{Z}_2^k$-symmetric space; flag manifolds; Riemannian metrics
Summary:
Flag manifolds are in general not symmetric spaces. But they are provided with a structure of $\mathbb{Z}_2^k$-symmetric space. We describe the Riemannian metrics adapted to this structure and some properties of reducibility. The conditions for a metric adapted to the $\mathbb{Z}_2^2$-symmetric structure to be naturally reductive are detailed for the flag manifold $SO(5)/SO(2)\times SO(2) \times SO(1)$.
