Non-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 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 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 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 کاملOn positively curved 4-manifolds with S-symmetry
It is well-known by the work of Hsiang and Kleiner that every closed oriented positively curved 4-dimensional manifold with an effective isometric S-action is homeomorphic to S or CP. As stated, it is a topological classification. The primary goal of this paper is to show that it is indeed a diffeomorphism classification for such 4dimensional manifolds. The proof of this diffeomorphism classifi...
