Positively Curved Combinatorial 3-Manifolds
We present two theorems in the “discrete differential geometry” of positively curved spaces. The first is a combinatorial analog of the Bonnet-Myers theorem: • A combinatorial 3-manifold whose edges have degree at most five has edgediameter at most five. When all edges have unit length, this degree bound is equivalent to an angle-deficit along each edge. It is for this reason we call such space...
متن کاملPositively Curved Manifolds with Large Spherical Rank
Rigidity results are obtained for Riemannian d-manifolds with sec > 1 and spherical rank at least d − 2 > 0. Conjecturally, all such manifolds are locally isometric to a round sphere or complex projective space with the (symmetric) Fubini– Study metric. This conjecture is verified in all odd dimensions, for metrics on dspheres when d 6= 6, for Riemannian manifolds satisfying the Rakić duality p...
متن کاملPositively Curved Manifolds with Large Conjugate Radius
Let M denote a complete simply connected Riemannian manifold with all sectional curvatures ≥ 1. The purpose of this paper is to prove that when M has conjugate radius at least π/2, its injectivity radius and conjugate radius coincide. Metric characterizations of compact rank one symmetric spaces are given as applications.
متن کاملNon-positively Curved Cube Complexes
Let Γ be a discrete group, defined by a presentation P = 〈ai | rj〉, say, or as the fundamental group of a connected CW-complex X. Remark 1.1. Let XP be the CW-complex with a single 0-cell E , one 1-cell E i for each ai (oriented accordingly), and one 2-cell E 2 j for each rj , with attaching map ∂E j → X (1) P that reads off the word rj in the generators {ai}. Then, by the Seifert–van Kampen Th...
متن کاملVolume Growth and Curvature Decay of Positively Curved Kähler Manifolds
In this paper we obtain three results concerning the geometry of complete noncompact positively curved Kähler manifolds at infinity. The first one states that the order of volume growth of a complete noncompact Kähler manifold with positive bisectional curvature is at least half of the real dimension (i.e., the complex dimension). The second one states that the curvature of a complete noncompac...
