Turkish Journal of Mathematics

The purpose of this paper is to define a diagonal lift ^{\mathcal{D }}g of a Riemannian metric g of a manifold M_{n} to the cotangent bundle T^{*}(M_{n}) of M_{n}, to associate with ^{\mathcal{D}}g an Levi-Civita connection of T^{*}(M_{n}) in a natural way and to investigate applications of the diagonal lifts.
