Abstract

We formulate the equation of motion of a charged particle in a Riemannian manifold with a closed two form. Since a two-step nilpotent Lie group has natural left-invariant closed two forms, it is natural to consider the motion of a charged particle in a simply connected two-step nilpotent Lie groups with a left invariant metric. We study the behavior of the motion of a charged particle in the above spaces.
