چکیده
We prove that the connected sums CP2#CP2 and CP2#CP2#CP2 admit self-dual metrics with positive Ricci curvature. Moreover, every self-dual metric of positive scalar curvature on CP2#CP2 is conformal to a metric with positive Ricci curvature. ∗Supported in part by NSF grant DMS-9204093

Warped product and quasi-Einstein metrics
Warped products provide a rich class of physically significant geometric objects. Warped product construction is an important method to produce a new metric with a base manifold and a fibre. We construct compact base manifolds with a positive scalar curvature which do not admit any non-trivial quasi-Einstein warped product, and non compact complete base manifolds which do not admit any non-triv...
متن کاملOn three-dimensional $N(k)$-paracontact metric manifolds and Ricci solitons
The aim of this paper is to characterize $3$-dimensional $N(k)$-paracontact metric manifolds satisfying certain curvature conditions. We prove that a $3$-dimensional $N(k)$-paracontact metric manifold $M$ admits a Ricci soliton whose potential vector field is the Reeb vector field $xi$ if and only if the manifold is a paraSasaki-Einstein manifold. Several consequences of this result are discuss...
متن کاملLower Bounds of the First Closed and Neumann Eigenvalues of Compact Manifolds with Positive Ricci Curvature
We give new estimates on the lower bounds for the first closed and Neumann eigenvalues for the compact manifolds with positive Ricci curvature in terms of the diameter and the lower bound of Ricci curvature.
متن کاملOn $(epsilon)$ - Lorentzian para-Sasakian Manifolds
The object of this paper is to study $(epsilon)$-Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifolds. Some typical identities for the curvature tensor and the Ricci tensor of $(epsilon)$-Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifold are investigated. Further, we study globally $phi$-Ricci symmetric and weakly $phi$-Ricci symmetric $(epsilon)$-Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifolds and obtain interesting results.
متن کاملMetrics of positive Ricci curvature on quotient spaces
One of the classical problems in differential geometry is the investigation of closed manifolds which admit Riemannian metrics with given lower bounds for the sectional or the Ricci curvature and the study of relations between the existence of such metrics and the topology and geometry of the underlying manifold. Despite many efforts during the past decades, this problem is still far from being...
