On the fundamental group of some open manifolds
We study fundamental groups of non compact Riemannian manifolds. We find conditions which ensure that the fundamental group is trivial, finite or finitely generated.
متن کاملSome 3-manifolds and 3-orbifolds with Large Fundamental Group
We provide two new proofs of a theorem of Cooper, Long and Reid which asserts that, apart from an explicit finite list of exceptional manifolds, any compact orientable irreducible 3-manifold with non-empty boundary has large fundamental group. The first proof is direct and topological; the second is group-theoretic. These techniques are then applied to prove a string of results about (possibly ...
متن کاملThe Fundamental Group of S1-manifolds
We address the problem of computing the fundamental group of a symplectic S-manifold for non-Hamiltonian actions on compact manifolds, and for Hamiltonian actions on non-compact manifolds with a proper moment map. We generalize known results for compact manifolds equipped with a Hamiltonian S-action. Several examples are presented to illustrate our main results.

متن کاملThe Fundamental Group of G-manifolds
Let M be a connected smooth G-manifold, where G is a connected compact Lie group. In this paper, we first study the relation between π1 (M) and π1 (M/G). Then we particularly focus on the case when M is a connected Hamiltonian G-manifold with an equivariant moment map φ. In [13], for compact M , we proved that π1 (M) = π1 (M/G) = π1 (Ma) for all a ∈ image(φ), where Ma is the symplectic quotient...
