Scalar Curvatures of Hermitian Metrics on the Moduli Space of Riemann Surfaces

چکیده
In this article we show that any finite cover of the moduli space of closed Riemann surfaces of g genus with g > 2 does not admit any complete finite-volume Hermitian metric of non-negative scalar curvature. Moreover, we also show that the total mass of the scalar curvature of any almost Hermitian metric, which is equivalent to the Teichmüller metric, on any finite cover of the moduli space is negative provided that the scalar curvature is bounded from below.

On the Weil-petersson Curvature of the Moduli Space of Riemann Surfaces of Large Genus
Let Sg be a closed surface of genus g and Mg be the moduli space of Sg endowed with the Weil-Petersson metric. In this paper we investigate the Weil-Petersson curvatures of Mg for large genus g. First, we study the asymptotic behavior of the extremal Weil-Petersson holomorphic sectional curvatures at certain thick surfaces in Mg as g → ∞. Then we prove two curvature properties on the whole spac...
متن کاملCanonical Metrics on the Moduli Space of Riemann Surfaces I
One of the main purpose of this paper is to compare those well-known canonical and complete metrics on the Teichmüller and the moduli spaces of Riemann surfaces. We use as bridge two new metrics, the Ricci metric and the perturbed Ricci metric. We will prove that these metrics are equivalent to those classical complete metrics. For this purpose we study in detail the asymptotic behaviors and th...

For singular metrics, Ray and Singer’s analytic torsion formalism cannot be applied. Hence we do not have the so-called Quillen metric on determinant of cohomology with respect to a singular metric. In this paper, we introduce a new metric on determinant of cohomology by adapting a totally different approach. More precisely, by strengthening results in the first paper of this series, we develop...
متن کاملAdmissible Hermitian Metrics on Families of Line Bundles over Certain Degenerating Riemann Surfaces
We show that a family of line bundles of degree zero over a plumbing family of Riemann surfaces with a separating (resp. non-separating) node p admits a nice (resp. almost nice) family of flat p-singular Hermitian metrics. As a consequence, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for a family of line bundles over such families of Riemann surfaces to admit an (almost) nice family of p-singul...
متن کاملConvergence Properties of Donaldson's T -Iterations on the Riemann Sphere
In [Don05b] Donaldson gives three operators on a space of Hermitian metrics on a complex projective manifold: T, Tν , TK . Iterations of these operators converge to balanced metrics, and these themselves approximate constant scalar curvature metrics. In this paper we investigate the convergence properties of these iterations by examining the case of the Riemann sphere as well as higher dimensio...
