Abstract

Cartan-Lie algebroids, i.e., Lie algebroids equipped with a compatible connection, permit the definition of an adjoint representation, on the fiber as well as on the tangent of the base. We call (positive) quadratic Lie algebroids, Cartan-Lie algebroids with ad-invariant (Riemannian) metrics on their fibers and base and g, respectively. We determine the necessary and sufficient conditions for a positive quadratic Lie algebroid to integrate to a Riemannian Cartan-Lie groupoid. Here we mean a Cartan-Lie groupoid equipped with a bi-invariant and inversion-invariant metric on such that it induces by submersion the metric g on its base and its restriction to the t-fibers coincides with .
