Two Remarks on the Length Spectrum of a Riemannian Manifold
We demonstrate that every closed manifold of dimension at least two admits smooth metrics with respect to which the length spectrum is not a discrete subset of the real line. In contrast, we show that the length spectrum of any real analytic metric on a closed manifold is a discrete subset of the real line. In particular, the length spectrum of any closed locally homogeneous space forms a discr...
متن کاملGeodesic Conjugacy in Two - Step Nilmanifolds
Two Riemannian manifolds are said to have C-conjugate geodesic flows if there exist an C diffeomorphism between their unit tangent bundles which intertwines the geodesic flows. We obtain a number of rigidity results for the geodesic flows on compact 2-step Riemannian nilmanifolds: For generic 2-step nilmanifolds the geodesic flow is C rigid. For special classes of 2-step nilmanifolds, we show t...
متن کاملMinimal Models of Nilmanifolds
In this paper we first determine minimal models of nilmanifolds associated with given rational nilpotent Lie algebras. Then we study some properties of nilmanifolds through their associated Lie algebras and minimal models. In particular, we will see that a minimal model of a nilmanifold is formal if and only if it is a torus, and thus a non-toral nilmanifold has no complex structure which is bi...
متن کاملMinimal Metrics on Nilmanifolds
A left invariant metric on a nilpotent Lie group is called minimal, if it minimizes the norm of the Ricci tensor among all left invariant metrics with the same scalar curvature. Such metrics are unique up to isometry and scaling and the groups admitting a minimal metric are precisely the nilradicals of (standard) Einstein solvmanifolds. If N is endowed with an invariant symplectic, complex or h...
متن کاملLectures on Marked Length Spectrum Rigidity (preliminary Version)
Let M be a closed Riemannian manifold whose sectional curvatures are all negative, and denote by C the set of free homotopy classes of closed curves in M . Negative curvature implies that in each free homotopy class, there is a unique closed geodesic. This defines a marked length spectrum function ` : C → R>0 which assigns to the class g the length `(g) of this closed geodesic. Burns and Katok ...
