چکیده
We prove that a 3-dimensional compact Riemannian manifold which is locally collapsed, with respect to a lower curvature bound, is a graph manifold. This theorem was stated by Perelman and was used in his proof of the geometrization conjecture.

A Simple Proof of Perelman’s Collapsing Theorem for 3-manifolds
We will simplify earlier proofs of Perelman’s collapsing theorem for 3-manifolds given by Shioya-Yamaguchi [SY00]-[SY05] and Morgan-Tian [MT08]. A version of Perelman’s collapsing theorem states: “Let {M3 i } be a sequence of compact Riemannian 3-manifolds with curvature bounded from below by (−1) and diam(M3 i ) ≥ c0 > 0. Suppose that all unit metric balls in M3 i have very small volume at mos...
متن کاملThe Existence of Polarized F-structures on Volume Collapsed 4-manifolds Polarized F-structures on Volume Collapsed 4-manifolds
By the work of [CG2] and [CG3], the Riemannian manifolds whose injectivity radii are small everywhere relative to the bound on sectional curvature admit positive rank F-structures. We will prove, in dimension four, that if the volumes of the manifolds are also smaller than a positive constant, then the manifolds actually admit polarized F-structures. In particular, this result implies an affirm...
متن کاملCollapsing sequences of solutions to the Ricci flow on 3-manifolds with almost nonnegative curvature
We shall prove a general result about sequences of solutions to the Ricci flow on compact or complete noncompact 3-manifolds with locally uniformly bounded almost nonnegative sectional curvatures and diameters tending to infinity. It is known that such sequences occur when one dilates about a singularity of a solution to the Ricci flow on a 3-manifold. Our main result assumes collapse and is co...
متن کاملCollapsed Riemannian Manifolds with Bounded Diameter and Bounded Covering Geometry
We study the class of n-Riemannian manifolds in the title such that the torsion elements in the fundamental group have a definite bound on their orders. Our main result asserts the existence of a kind of generalized Seifert fiber structure on M", for which the fundamental group of fibers injects into that of M". This provides a necessary and sufficient topological condition for a manifold to ad...
متن کاملConformal mappings preserving the Einstein tensor of Weyl manifolds
In this paper, we obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for a conformal mapping between two Weyl manifolds to preserve Einstein tensor. Then we prove that some basic curvature tensors of $W_n$ are preserved by such a conformal mapping if and only if the covector field of the mapping is locally a gradient. Also, we obtained the relation between the scalar curvatures of the Weyl manifolds r...
