Metrics of positive Ricci curvature on quotient spaces
One of the classical problems in differential geometry is the investigation of closed manifolds which admit Riemannian metrics with given lower bounds for the sectional or the Ricci curvature and the study of relations between the existence of such metrics and the topology and geometry of the underlying manifold. Despite many efforts during the past decades, this problem is still far from being...
متن کاملOn Randers metrics of reversible projective Ricci curvature
projective Ricci curvature. Then we characterize isotropic projective Ricci curvature of Randers metrics. we also show that Randers metrics are PRic-reversible if and only if they are PRic-quadratic../files/site1/files/0Abstract2.pdf
متن کاملPositive Ricci Curvature
We discuss the Sasakian geometry of odd dimensional homotopy spheres. In particular, we give a completely new proof of the existence of metrics of positive Ricci curvature on exotic spheres that can be realized as the boundary of a parallelizable manifold. Furthermore, it is shown that on such homotopy spheres Σ the moduli space of Sasakian structures has infinitely many positive components det...
متن کاملRicci curvature of metric spaces
We define a notion of Ricci curvature in metric spaces equipped with a measure or a random walk. For this we use a local contraction coefficient of the random walk acting on the space of probability measures equipped with a transportation distance. This notions allows to generalize several classical theorems associated with positive Ricci curvature, such as a spectral gap bound (Lichnerowicz th...
متن کاملPrescribing Ricci Curvature on Complexified Symmetric Spaces
The complexification of the compact group G is the group G whose Lie algebra is the complexification of the Lie algebra g of G and which satisfies π1(G ) = π1(G). The complexification G/K of G/K can be then identified (G-equivariantly) with the tangent bundle of G/K. We also remark that the Kähler form obtained in the Theorem is exact. This result has been proved in [9] for symmetric spaces of ...
