invariant operators; Cartan connection; almost hermitian symmetric structures
Summary:
The aim of the first part of a series of papers is to give a description of invariant differential operators on manifolds with an almost Hermitian symmetric structure of the type $G/B$ which are defined on bundles associated to the reducible but undecomposable representation of the parabolic subgroup $B$ of the Lie group $G$. One example of an operator of this type is the Penrose's local twistor transport. In this part general theory is presented, and conformally invariant operators are studied in more details.
