Comparison and Rigidity Theorems in Semi-riemannian Geometry
The comparison theory for the Riccati equation satisfied by the shape operator of parallel hypersurfaces is generalized to semi–Riemannian manifolds of arbitrary index, using one–sided bounds on the Riemann tensor which in the Riemannian case correspond to one–sided bounds on the sectional curvatures. Starting from 2–dimensional rigidity results and using an inductive technique, a new class of ...
متن کاملSome Isoperimetric Comparison Theorems for Convex Bodies in Riemannian Manifolds
We prove that the isoperimetric profile of a convex domain Ω with compact closure in a Riemannian manifold (M, g) satisfies a second order differential inequality which only depends on the dimension of the manifold and on a lower bound on the Ricci curvature of Ω. Regularity properties of the profile and topological consequences on isoperimetric regions arise naturally from this differential po...
متن کاملComparison Theorems in Riemannian Geometry
The subject of these lecture notes is comparison theory in Riemannian geometry: What can be said about a complete Riemannian manifold when (mainly lower) bounds for the sectional or Ricci curvature are given? Starting from the comparison theory for the Riccati ODE which describes the evolution of the principal curvatures of equidistant hypersurfaces, we discuss the global estimates for volume a...
متن کاملBernstein-type Theorems in Semi-riemannian Warped Products
This paper deals with complete hypersurfaces immersed in the (n + 1)-dimensional hyperbolic and steady state spaces. By applying a technique of S. T. Yau and imposing suitable conditions on both the r-th mean curvatures and on the norm of the gradient of the height function, we obtain Bernstein-type results in each of these ambient spaces.
متن کاملRelative volume comparison theorems in Finsler geometry and their applications
We establish some relative volume comparison theorems for extremal volume forms of Finsler manifolds under suitable curvature bounds. As their applications, we obtain some results on curvature and topology of Finsler manifolds. Our results remove the usual assumption on S-curvature that is needed in the literature.
