Equivariant Principal Bundles over Spheres and Cohomogeneity One Manifolds
We classify SO(n)-equivariant principal bundles over Sn in terms of their isotropy representations over the north and south poles. This is an example of a general result classifying equivariant (Π, G)-bundles over cohomogeneity one manifolds.
متن کاملOn the Geometry of Cohomogeneity One Manifolds with Positive Curvature
There are very few known examples of manifolds with positive sectional curvature. Apart from the compact rank one symmetric spaces, they exist only in dimensions 24 and below and are all obtained as quotients of a compact Lie group equipped with a biinvariant metric under an isometric group action. They consist of certain homogeneous spaces in dimensions 6, 7, 12, 13 and 24 due to Berger [Be], ...
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 کاملOn the Non-existence of Elements of Kervaire Invariant One
We show that the Kervaire invariant one elements θj ∈ π2j+1−2S 0 exist only for j ≤ 6. By Browder’s Theorem, this means that smooth framed manifolds of Kervaire invariant one exist only in dimensions 2, 6, 14, 30, 62, and possibly 126. Except for dimension 126 this resolves a longstanding problem in algebraic topology.
متن کاملOn cohomogeneity one nonsimply connected 7-manifolds of constant positive curvature
In this paper, we give a classification of non simply connected seven dimensional Reimannian manifolds of constant positive curvature which admit irreducible cohomogeneity-one actions. We characterize the acting groups and describe the orbits. The first and second homo-topy groups of the orbits have been presented as well.
