Kähler manifolds and fundamental groups of negatively δ-pinched manifolds
In this note, we will show that the fundamental group of any negatively δ-pinched (δ > 14) manifold can’t be the fundamental group of a quasi-compact Kähler manifold. As a consequence of our proof, we also show that any nonuniform lattice in F4(−20) cannot be the fundamental group of a quasi-compact Kähler manifold. The corresponding result for uniform lattices was proved by Carlson and Hernánd...
متن کاملGeometric Finiteness in Negatively Pinched Hadamard Manifolds
In this paper, we generalize Bonahon’s characterization of geometrically infinite torsion-free discrete subgroups of PSL(2,C) to geometrically infinite discrete torsionfree subgroups Γ of isometries of negatively pinched Hadamard manifolds X. We then generalize a theorem of Bishop to prove that every such geometrically infinite isometry subgroup Γ has a set of nonconical limit points with cardi...
متن کاملClassification of Almost Quarter-pinched Manifolds
We show that if a simply connected manifold is almost quarter pinched then it is di¤eomorphic to a CROSS or sphere.
متن کاملOn the Fundamental Groups of Negatively Curved Manifolds with Finite Volume
We will prove that if M is a complete, simply connected riemannian manifold with sectional curvature K, a < K < 0, for a > 0 and T a properly discontinuous group of isometries of M acting freely on M with volume (M/T) finite, then M/T is compact if and only if T consists of hyperbolic elements.
متن کاملAspherical Manifolds with Relatively Hyperbolic Fundamental Groups
We show that the aspherical manifolds produced via the relative strict hyperbolization of polyhedra enjoy many group-theoretic and topological properties of open finite volume negatively pinched manifolds, including relative hyperbolicity, nonvanishing of simplicial volume, co-Hopf property, finiteness of outer automorphism group, absence of splitting over elementary subgroups, acylindricity, a...
