Abstract
The nullity concept of Riemannian manifolds is extended to affine manifolds. Results obtained by Chern and Kuiper and Maltz on Riemannian manifolds are generalized to affine manifolds. A structure theorem for affine symmetric spaces is obtained. Finally, the nullity concept is generalized to study the partial integrability of certain geometric structures.
