ON COMPACT HOMOGENEOUS -MANIFOLDS

Compact homogeneous Riemannian manifolds with low co-index of symmetry

We develop a general structure theory for compact homogeneous Riemannian manifolds in relation to the co-index of symmetry. We will then use these results to classify irreducible, simply connected, compact homogeneous Riemannian manifolds whose co-index of symmetry is less or equal than three. We will also construct many examples which arise from the theory of polars and centrioles in Riemannia...

A Variational Approach for Compact Homogeneous Einstein Manifolds

Einstein metrics of volume 1 on a closed manifold can be characterized variationally as the critical points of the Hilbert action [Hi], which associates to each Riemannian metric of volume 1 the integral of its scalar curvature. As is well-known, the gradient vector of the Hilbert action with respect to the natural L2 metric is precisely the negative of the traceless Ricci tensor. Consequently,...

A Class of compact operators on homogeneous spaces

Let  $varpi$ be a representation of the homogeneous space $G/H$, where $G$ be a locally compact group and  $H$ be a compact subgroup of $G$. For  an admissible wavelet $zeta$ for $varpi$  and $psi in L^p(G/H), 1leq p <infty$, we determine a class of bounded  compact operators  which are related to continuous wavelet transforms on homogeneous spaces and they are called localization operators.

Lipschitz Spaces on Compact Manifolds

Let f be a bounded function on the real line IF!. One may characterize the structural properties off by the modulus of smoothness w(t,f) = sup{lf (4 -f( y)l; x, y E 08, I x y I < t>, and, if w(t) is a continuous nondecreasing function of t > 0 such that w(O) = 0, by the Lipschitz class Lip(w) which is the set of all continuous functions such that su~~<~<i w(t, f)/o(t) < 00. It is possible to ex...
