Einstein Four-manifolds of Three-nonnegative Curvature Operator
We prove that Einstein four-manifolds with three-nonnegative curvature operator are either flat, isometric to (S, g0), (CP , gFS), (S × S, g0 ⊕ g0), or their quotients by finite groups of fixed point free isometries, up to rescaling. We also prove that Einstein four-manifolds with four-nonnegative curvature operator and positive intersection form are isometric to (CP , gFS) up to rescaling.
متن کاملComplete Manifolds with Nonnegative Curvature Operator
In this short note, as a simple application of the strong result proved recently by Böhm and Wilking, we give a classification on closed manifolds with 2-nonnegative curvature operator. Moreover, by the new invariant cone constructions of Böhm and Wilking, we show that any complete Riemannian manifold (with dimension ≥ 3) whose curvature operator is bounded and satisfies the pinching condition ...
متن کاملCurvature flows on four manifolds with boundary
Given a compact four dimensional smooth Riemannian manifold (M, g) with smooth boundary, we consider the evolution equation by Q-curvature in the interior keeping the T -curvature and the mean curvature to be zero and the evolution equation by T -curvature at the boundary with the condition that the Q-curvature and the mean curvature vanish. Using integral method, we prove global existence and ...
متن کاملSphere Theorem for Manifolds with Positive Curvature
In this paper, we prove that, for any integer n ≥ 2, there exists an ǫn ≥ 0 so that if M is an n-dimensional complete manifold with sectional curvature KM ≥ 1 and if M has conjugate radius bigger than π 2 and contains a geodesic loop of length 2(π − ǫn), then M is diffeomorphic to the Euclidian unit sphere S.
متن کاملRiemannian Manifolds with Positive Sectional Curvature
It is fair to say that Riemannian geometry started with Gauss’s famous ”Disquisitiones generales” from 1827 in which one finds a rigorous discussion of what we now call the Gauss curvature of a surface. Much has been written about the importance and influence of this paper, see in particular the article [Do] by P.Dombrowski for a careful discussion of its contents and influence during that time...
