چکیده
Let $M_\Sigma$ be an $n$-dimensional Thom-Mather stratified space of depth $1$. We denote by $\beta M$ the singular locus and $L$ associated link. In this paper we study problem when such a can endowed with wedge metric positive scalar curvature. relate to recent work on index theory spaces, giving first obstruction existence in terms $\alpha$-class $\alpha_w (M_\Sigma)\in KO_n$. order establish sufficient condition need assume additional structure: that link is homogeneous curvature, $L=G/K$, where semisimple compact Lie group $G$ acts transitively isometries. Examples manifolds include groups Riemannian symmetric spaces type. Under these assumptions, are spin, reinterpret our two $\alpha$-classes resolution $M_\Sigma$, $M$, M$. Finally, M$, $L$, simply connected $\dim big enough, some other conditions (satisfied large number cases) hold, main result article, showing vanishing also for well-adapted

Simply Connected Manifolds of Positive Scalar Curvature
Hitchin proved that if M is a spin manifold with positive scalar curvature, then the A^O-characteristic number a(M) vanishes. Gromov and Lawson conjectured that for a simply connected spin manifold M of dimension > 5, the vanishing of a(M) is sufficient for the existence of a Riemannian metric on M with positive scalar curvature. We prove this conjecture using techniques from stable homotopy th...

متن کاملPositive Scalar Curvature
One of the striking initial applications of the Seiberg-Witten invariants was to give new obstructions to the existence of Riemannian metrics of positive scalar curvature on 4– manifolds. The vanishing of the Seiberg–Witten invariants of a manifold admitting such a metric may be viewed as a non-linear generalization of the classic conditions [12, 11] derived from the Dirac operator. If a manifo...
متن کاملSimply Connected Manifolds with Infinitely Many Toric Contact Structures and Constant Scalar Curvature Sasaki Metrics
We study a class of simply connected manifolds in all odd dimensions greater than 3 that exhibit an infinite number of toric contact structures of Reeb type that are inequivalent as contact structures. We compute the cohomology ring of our manifolds by using the join construction for Sasaki manifolds and show that all such contact structures admit a ray of compatible Sasaki metrics of constant ...
متن کاملPositive Ricci Curvature on Highly Connected Manifolds
For k ≥ 2, let M4k−1 be a closed (2k−2)-connected manifold. If k ≡ 1 mod 4 assume further that M is (2k−1)-parallelisable. Then there is a homotopy sphere Σ4k−1 such that M]Σ admits a Ricci positive metric. This follows from a new description of these manifolds as the boundaries of explicit plumbings.
