Vanishing Theorem for Transverse Dirac Operators on Riemannian Foliations
Let X be a compact manifold of dimension 2n equipped with an almost complex structure J : TX → TX, E a Hermitian vector bundle on X, and gX a Riemannian metric on X. Assume that the almost complex structure J is compatible with gX . Consider a Hermitian line bundle L over X endowed with a Hermitian connection ∇L such that its curvature R = (∇L)2 is nondegenerate. Thus, ω = i 2πR L is a symplect...
متن کاملThe Transverse Geometry of G-manifolds and Riemannian Foliations
Given a compact Riemannian manifold on which a compact Lie group acts by isometries, it is shown that there exists a Riemannian foliation whose leaf closure space is naturally isometric (as a metric space) to the orbit space of the group action. Furthermore, this isometry (and foliation) may be chosen so that a leaf closure is mapped to an orbit with the same volume, even though the dimension o...
متن کاملA Cohomological Lower Bound for the Transverse Ls Category of a Foliated Manifold
Let F be a compact Hausdorff foliation on a compact manifold. Let E 2 = ⊕{E 2 : p > 0, q ≥ 0} be the subalgebra of cohomology classes with positive transverse degree in the E2 term of the spectral sequence of the foliation. We prove that the saturated transverse Lusternik-Schnirelmann category of F is bounded below by the length of the cup product in E 2 . Other cohomological bounds are discussed.
متن کاملTraces of Heat Operators on Riemannian Foliations
We consider the basic heat operator on functions on a Riemannian foliation of a compact, Riemannian manifold, and we show that the trace KB(t) of this operator has a particular asymptotic expansion as t → 0. The coefficients of t and of t(log t) in this expansion are obtainable from local transverse geometric invariants functions computable by analyzing the manifold in an arbitrarily small neig...
متن کاملNoncommutative spectral geometry of Riemannian foliations
According to [9, 8], the initial datum of noncommutative differential geometry is a spectral triple (A,H, D) (see Section 3.1 for the definition), which provides a description of the corresponding geometrical space in terms of spectral data of geometrical operators on this space. The purpose of this paper is to construct spectral triples given by transversally elliptic operators with respect to...
