We prove that any smooth orientable closed four-manifold admits a Riemannian metric with negative isotropic curvature in the sense of Micallef and Moore.

On Stretch curvature of Finsler manifolds
In this paper, Finsler metrics with relatively non-negative (resp. non-positive), isotropic and constant stretch curvature are studied. In particular, it is showed that every compact Finsler manifold with relatively non-positive (resp. non-negative) stretch curvature is a Landsberg metric. Also, it is proved that every (α,β)-metric of non-zero constant flag curvature and non-zero relatively i...
متن کاملOn Randers metrics of reversible projective Ricci curvature
projective Ricci curvature. Then we characterize isotropic projective Ricci curvature of Randers metrics. we also show that Randers metrics are PRic-reversible if and only if they are PRic-quadratic../files/site1/files/0Abstract2.pdf
متن کاملThe Research on the Biggest Borehole Curvature that Allowed through for the Rotating Casing (RESEARCH NOTE)
With the development of highly-deviated well cementing techniques, rotating casing cementing technology has got more and more attention. The rotating casing technique can improve the displacement efficiency of cement paste, and then enhance the quality of well cementation. In the stuck section, the rotating casing can redress the well to make the casing run sequentially. The casing endures shea...
متن کاملSpacetimes admitting quasi-conformal curvature tensor
The object of the present paper is to study spacetimes admitting quasi-conformal curvature tensor. At first we prove that a quasi-conformally flat spacetime is Einstein and hence it is of constant curvature and the energy momentum tensor of such a spacetime satisfying Einstein's field equation with cosmological constant is covariant constant. Next, we prove that if the perfect flui...
متن کاملWave Equations in Transversely Isotropic Media in Terms of Potential Functions (RESEARCH NOTE)
A complete series of potential functions for solving the wave equations in an almost transversely isotropic media is presented. The potential functions are reduced to only one potential function particularly for axisymmetric wave propagation problems. The potential functions presented in this paper can be reduced to Lekhnitskii-Hu-Nowacki solution for elastostatics problems.
