Positive Ricci Curvature
We discuss the Sasakian geometry of odd dimensional homotopy spheres. In particular, we give a completely new proof of the existence of metrics of positive Ricci curvature on exotic spheres that can be realized as the boundary of a parallelizable manifold. Furthermore, it is shown that on such homotopy spheres Σ the moduli space of Sasakian structures has infinitely many positive components det...
متن کاملVector Fields and Ricci Curvature
We shall prove theorems on nonexistence of certain types of vector fields on a compact manifold with a positive definite Riemannian metric whose Ricci curvature is either everywhere positive or everywhere negative. Actually we shall have some relaxations of the requirements both as to curvature and as to compactness. We shall deal with real spaces with a customary metric and with complex analyt...
متن کاملAspects of Ricci Curvature
We describe some new ideas and techniques introducedto study spaces with a given lower Ricci curvature bound, and discuss a number of recent results about such spaces.
متن کاملRicci Curvature modulo Homotopy
This article is a report summarizing recent progress in the geometry of negative Ricci and scalar curvature. It describes the range of general existence results of such metrics on manifolds of dimension ≥ 3. Moreover it explains flexibility and approximation theorems for these curvature conditions leading to unexpected effects. For instance, we find that “modulo homotopy” (in a specified sense)...
متن کاملRicci Curvature of Graphs
We modify the definition of Ricci curvature of Ollivier of Markov chains on graphs to study the properties of the Ricci curvature of general graphs, Cartesian product of graphs, random graphs, and some special class of graphs.
