Positive Ricci Curvature on Highly Connected Manifolds
For k ≥ 2, let M4k−1 be a closed (2k−2)-connected manifold. If k ≡ 1 mod 4 assume further that M is (2k−1)-parallelisable. Then there is a homotopy sphere Σ4k−1 such that M]Σ admits a Ricci positive metric. This follows from a new description of these manifolds as the boundaries of explicit plumbings.
متن کاملHighly connected manifolds with positive Ricci curvature
We prove the existence of Sasakian metrics with positive Ricci curvature on certain highly connected odd dimensional manifolds. In particular, we show that manifolds homeomorphic to the 2k-fold connected sum of S × S admit Sasakian metrics with positive Ricci curvature for all k. Furthermore, a formula for computing the diffeomorphism types is given and tables are presented for dimensions 7 and...
متن کاملRicci flow and manifolds with positive curvature
This is an expository article based on the author’s lecture delivered at the conference Lie Theory and Its Applications in March 2011, UCSD. We discuss various notions of positivity and their relations with the study of the Ricci flow, including a proof of the assertion, due to Wolfson and the author, that the Ricci flow preserves the positivity of the complex sectional curvature. We discuss th...
متن کاملSelf-Dual Manifolds with Positive Ricci Curvature
We prove that the connected sums CP2#CP2 and CP2#CP2#CP2 admit self-dual metrics with positive Ricci curvature. Moreover, every self-dual metric of positive scalar curvature on CP2#CP2 is conformal to a metric with positive Ricci curvature. ∗Supported in part by NSF grant DMS-9204093
متن کاملCompact Riemannian Manifolds with Positive Curvature Operators
M is said to have positive curvature operators if the eigenvalues of Z are positive at each point p € M. Meyer used the theory of harmonic forms to prove that a compact oriented n-dimensional Riemannian manifold with positive curvature operators must have the real homology of an n-dimensional sphere [GM, Proposition 2.9]. Using the theory of minimal two-spheres, we will outline a proof of the f...
