Cohomogeneity One Manifolds and Selfmaps of Nontrivial Degree
We construct natural selfmaps of compact cohomgeneity one manifolds with finite Weyl group and compute their degrees and Lefschetz numbers. On manifolds with simple cohomology rings this yields in certain cases relations between the order of the Weyl group and the Euler characteristic of a principal orbit. We apply our construction to the compact Lie group SU(3) where we realize all possible de...
متن کاملDegree-one Maps, Surgery and Four-manifolds
We give a description of degree-one maps between closed, oriented 3-manifolds in terms of surgery. Namely, we show that there is a degree-one map from a closed, oriented 3-manifold M to a closed, oriented 3-manifold N if and only if M can be obtained from N by surgery about a link in N each of whose components is an unknot. We use this to interpret the existence of degree-one maps between close...
متن کاملCohomogeneity One Einstein-sasaki 5-manifolds
We consider hypersurfaces in Einstein-Sasaki 5-manifolds which are tangent to the characteristic vector field. We introduce evolution equations that can be used to reconstruct the 5-dimensional metric from such a hypersurface, analogous to the (nearly) hypo and half-flat evolution equations in higher dimensions. We use these equations to classify Einstein-Sasaki 5-manifolds of cohomogeneity one...
متن کاملNon-negatively Curved Cohomogeneity One Manifolds
Non-negatively Curved Cohomogeneity One Manifolds Chenxu He Prof. Wolfgang Ziller, Advisor A Riemannian manifold M is called cohomogeneity one if it admits an isometric action by a compact Lie group G and the orbit space is one dimension. Many new examples of non-negatively curved manifolds were discovered recently in this category. However not every cohomogeneity one manifold carries an invari...
متن کاملDegree one maps between small 3-manifolds and Heegaard genus
We prove a rigidity theorem for degree one maps between small 3-manifolds using Heegaard genus, and provide some applications and connections to Heegaard genus and Dehn surgery problems. AMS Classification 57M50, 57N10
