Sphere Bundles with 1/4-pinched Fiberwise Metrics
We prove that all smooth sphere bundles that admit fiberwise 1/4-pinched metrics are induced bundles of vector bundles, so their structure groups reduce from DIFF(Sn) to O(n + 1). This result implies the existence of many smooth Sn-bundles over Sk that do not support strictly 1/4-pinched positively curved Riemannian metrics on their fibers.
متن کاملTwisting and Nonnegative Curvature Metrics on Vector Bundles over the round Sphere
A complete noncompact manifold M with nonnegative sectional curvature is diffeomorphic to the normal bundle of a compact submanifold S called the soul of M . When S is a round sphere we show that the clutching map of this bundle is restricted; this is used to deduce that there are at most finitely many isomorphism types of such bundles with sectional curvature lying in a fixed interval [0, κ]. ...
متن کاملMetrics with equatorial singularities on the sphere
Motivated by optimal control of affine systems stemming from mechanics, metrics on the two-sphere of revolution are considered; these metrics are Riemannian on each open hemisphere whereas one term of the corresponding tensor becomes infinite on the equator. Length minimizing curves are computed and structure results on the cut and conjugate loci are given, extending those in [11]. These result...
متن کاملNew Infinite Series of Einstein Metrics on Sphere Bundles from AdS Black Holes
A new infinite series of Einstein metrics is constructed explicitly on S2×S3, and the non-trivial S3-bundle over S2, containing infinite numbers of inhomogeneous ones. They appear as a certain limit of a nearly extreme 5-dimensional AdS Kerr black hole. In the special case, the metrics reduce to the homogeneous Einstein metrics studied by Wang and Ziller. We also construct an inhomogeneous Eins...
متن کاملNew Inhomogeneous Einstein Metrics on Sphere Bundles Over Einstein-Kähler Manifolds
We construct new complete, compact, inhomogeneous Einstein metrics on S sphere bundles over 2n-dimensional Einstein-Kähler spaces K2n, for all n ≥ 1 and all m ≥ 1. We also obtain complete, compact, inhomogeneous Einstein metrics on warped products of S with S bundles over K2n, for m > 1. Additionally, we construct new complete, noncompact Ricci-flat metrics with topologies S times R bundles ove...
