Some New Examples with Quasi-positive Curvature
As a means to better understanding manifolds with positive curvature, there has been much recent interest in the study of nonnegatively curved manifolds which contain a point at which all 2-planes have positive curvature. We show that there are generalisations of the well-known Eschenburg spaces together with quotients of S×S which admit metrics with this property. It is an unfortunate fact tha...
متن کاملExamples of Riemannian manifolds with positive curvature almost everywhere
We show that the unit tangent bundle of S4 and a real cohomology CP 3 admit Riemannian metrics with positive sectional curvature almost everywhere. These are the only examples so far with positive curvature almost everywhere that are not also known to admit positive curvature.

متن کاملManifolds of Positive Ricci Curvature with Almost Maximal Volume
10. In this note we consider complete Riemannian manifolds with Ricci curvature bounded from below. The well-known theorems of Myers and Bishop imply that a manifold M n with Ric ~ n 1 satisfies diam(1l1n) ~ diam(Sn(I)), Vol(Mn) ~ Vol(Sn(I)). It follows from [Ch] that equality in either of these estimates can be achieved only if M n is isometric to Sn (1). The natural conjecture is that a manif...
متن کاملAlmost Positive Curvature on the Gromoll-meyer Sphere
Gromoll and Meyer have represented a certain exotic 7-sphere Σ as a biquotient of the Lie group G = Sp(2). We show for a 2-parameter family of left invariant metrics on G that the induced metric on Σ has strictly positive sectional curvature at all points outside four subvarieties of codimension ≥ 1 which we describe explicitly.
متن کاملSome new examples in 1-cohomology
This paper gives some new examples in the 1-cohomology theory of finite groups of Lie type, obtained from both computer calculations and the use of several theoretical results. In particular, the paper gives the first known examples of 1-cohomology groups of dimension greater than 2 for absolutely irreducible faithful modules of a finite group. The computer calculations were made originally whi...
