چکیده مقاله:

A manifold with a smooth action of a Lie group G is called G-manifold. In this paper we consider a complete Riemannian manifold M with the action of a closed and connected Lie subgroup G of the isometries. The dimension of the orbit space is called the cohomogeneity of the action. Manifolds having actions of cohomogeneity zero are called homogeneous. A classic theorem about Riemannian manifolds of nonpositive curvature states that a homogeneous Riemannian manifold  of nonpositive curvature is diffeomorphic to ...

Inf-Convolution and Regularization of Convex Functions on Riemannian Manifolds of Nonpositive Curvature

We show how an operation of inf-convolution can be used to approximate convex functions with C smooth convex functions on Riemannian manifolds with nonpositive curvature (in a manner that not only is explicit but also preserves some other properties of the original functions, such as ordering, symmetries, infima and sets of minimizers), and we give some applications.

Nonpositive Curvature and Reflection Groups

Introduction. A space is aspherical if its universal cover is contractible. Examples of aspherical spaces occur in differential geometry (as complete Riemannian manifolds of nonpositive sectional curvature), in Lie groups (as Γ\G/K where G is a Lie group, K is a maximal compact subgroup and Γ is a discrete torsion-free subgroup), in 3-manifold theory and as certain 2-dimensional cell complexes....

ISOMETRY GROUPS OF k-CURVATURE HOMOGENEOUS PSEUDO-RIEMANNIAN MANIFOLDS

We study the isometry groups of a family of complete p + 2curvature homogeneous pseudo-Riemannian metrics on R which have neutral signature (3 + 2p, 3 + 2p), and which are 0-curvature modeled on an indecomposible symmetric space.

Compact Kähler Manifolds with Nonpositive Bisectional Curvature

Let (Mn, g) be a compact Kähler manifold with nonpositive bisectional curvature. We show that a finite cover is biholomorphic and isometric to a flat torus bundle over a compact Kähler manifold Nk with c1 < 0. This confirms a conjecture of Yau. As a corollary, for any compact Kähler manifold with nonpositive bisectional curvature, the Kodaira dimension is equal to the maximal rank of the Ricci ...

Finsler Manifolds with Nonpositive Flag Curvature and Constant S-curvature

The flag curvature is a natural extension of the sectional curvature in Riemannian geometry, and the S-curvature is a non-Riemannian quantity which vanishes for Riemannian metrics. There are (incomplete) nonRiemannian Finsler metrics on an open subset in Rn with negative flag curvature and constant S-curvature. In this paper, we are going to show a global rigidity theorem that every Finsler met...
