On the Transverse Scalar Curvature of a Compact Sasaki Manifold
نویسندگان
چکیده
We show that the standard picture regarding the notion of stability of constant scalar curvature metrics in Kähler geometry described by S.K. Donaldson [8, 9], which involves the geometry of infinite-dimensional groups and spaces, can be applied to the constant scalar curvature metrics in Sasaki geometry with only few modification. We prove that the space of Sasaki metrics is an infinite dimensional symmetric space and that the transverse scalar curvature of a Sasaki metric is a moment map of the strict contactomophism group.

Transverse Kähler Geometry of Sasaki Manifolds and Toric Sasaki-einstein Manifolds
In this paper we study compact Sasaki manifolds in view of transverse Kähler geometry and extend some results in Kähler geometry to Sasaki manifolds. In particular we define integral invariants which obstruct the existence of transverse Kähler metric with harmonic Chern forms. The integral invariant f1 for the first Chern class case becomes an obstruction to the existence of transverse Kähler m...
متن کاملOn Stretch curvature of Finsler manifolds
In this paper, Finsler metrics with relatively non-negative (resp. non-positive), isotropic and constant stretch curvature are studied. In particular, it is showed that every compact Finsler manifold with relatively non-positive (resp. non-negative) stretch curvature is a Landsberg metric. Also, it is proved that every (α,β)-metric of non-zero constant flag curvature and non-zero relatively i...
متن کاملThe Sasaki-ricci Flow and Compact Sasaki Manifolds of Positive Transverse Holomorphic Bisectional Curvature
We show that Perelman’s W functional on Kahler manifolds has a natural counterpart on Sasaki manifolds. We prove, using this functional, that Perelman’s results on Kahler-Ricci flow (the first Chern class is positive) can be generalized to Sasaki-Ricci flow, including the uniform bound on the diameter and the scalar curvature along the flow. We also show that positivity of transverse bisectiona...
متن کاملON THE LIFTS OF SEMI-RIEMANNIAN METRICS
In this paper, we extend Sasaki metric for tangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold and Sasaki-Mok metric for the frame bundle of a Riemannian manifold [I] to the case of a semi-Riemannian vector bundle over a semi- Riemannian manifold. In fact, if E is a semi-Riemannian vector bundle over a semi-Riemannian manifold M, then by using an arbitrary (linear) connection on E, we can make E, as a...
متن کاملEvolution of the first eigenvalue of buckling problem on Riemannian manifold under Ricci flow
Among the eigenvalue problems of the Laplacian, the biharmonic operator eigenvalue problems are interesting projects because these problems root in physics and geometric analysis. The buckling problem is one of the most important problems in physics, and many studies have been done by the researchers about the solution and the estimate of its eigenvalue. In this paper, first, we obtain the evol...
