Differential Geometric Aspects of Alexandrov Spaces
We summarize the results on the differential geometric structure of Alexandrov spaces developed in [Otsu and Shioya 1994; Otsu 1995; Otsu and Tanoue a]. We discuss Riemannian and second differentiable structure and Jacobi fields on Alexandrov spaces of curvature bounded below or above.
متن کاملCompactifying Sufficiently Regular Covering Spaces of Compact 3-manifolds
In this paper it is proven that if the group of covering translations of the covering space of a compact, connected, P-irreducible 3-manifold corresponding to a non-trivial, finitely-generated subgroup of its fundamental group is infinite, then either the covering space is almost compact or the subgroup is infinite cyclic and has normalizer a non-finitely-generated subgroup of the rational numb...
متن کاملQuasigeodesics and Gradient Curves in Alexandrov Spaces
1. A comparison theorem for complete Riemannian manifolds with sectional curvatures ≥ k says that distance functions in such manifolds are more concave than in the model space Sk of constant curvature k. In other words, the restriction of any distance function distp to any geodesic γ (always parametrised by the arclength) satisfies a certain concavity condition (∗)k. For example, the condition ...
متن کاملA Splitting Theorem for Alexandrov Spaces
A classical result of Toponogov [12] states that if a complete Riemannian manifold M with nonnegative sectional curvature contains a straight line, thenM is isometric to the metric product of a nonnegatively curved manifold and a line. We then know that the Busemann function associated with the straight line is an affine function, namely, a function which is affine on each unit speed geodesic i...
متن کاملTopological regularity theorems for Alexandrov spaces
Since Gromov gave in [G1], [G2] an abstract definition of Hausdorff distance between two compact metric spaces, the Gromov-Hausdorff convergence theory has played an important role in Riemannian geometry. Usually, Gromov-Hausdorff limits of Riemannian manifolds are almost never Riemannian manifolds. This motivates the study of Alexandrov spaces which are more singular than Riemannian manifolds ...
