Hodge Cohomology of Some Foliated Boundary and Foliated Cusp Metrics

چکیده
For fibred boundary and fibred cusp metrics, Hausel, Hunsicker, and Mazzeo identified the space of L harmonic forms of fixed degree with the images of maps between intersection cohomology groups of an associated stratified space obtained by collapsing the fibres of the fibration at infinity onto its base. In the present paper, we obtain a generalization of this result to situations where, rather than a fibration at infinity, there is a Riemannian foliation with compact leaves admitting a resolution by a fibration. If the associated stratified space (obtained now by collapsing the leaves of the foliation) is a Witt space and if the metric considered is a foliated cusp metric, then no such resolution is required.

Cut-and-paste on Foliated Bundles
We discuss the behaviour of the signature index class of closed foliated bundles under the operation of cutting and pasting. Along the way we establish several index theoretic results: we define Atiyah-Patodi-Singer (≡ APS) index classes for Dirac-type operators on foliated bundles with boundary; we prove a relative index theorem for the difference of two APS-index classes associated to differe...
متن کاملHodge cohomology of gravitational instantons
We study the space of L harmonic forms on complete manifolds with metrics of fibred boundary or fibred cusp type. These metrics generalize the geometric structures at infinity of several different well-known classes of metrics, including asymptotically locally Euclidean manifolds, the (known types of) gravitational instantons, and also Poincaré metrics on Qrank 1 ends of locally symmetric space...
متن کاملThe Index of Operators on Foliated Bundles
We compute the equivariant cohomology Chern character of the index of elliptic operators along the leaves of the foliation of a flat bundle. The proof is based on the study of certain algebras of pseudodifferential operators and uses techniques for analizing noncommutative algebras similar to those developed in Algebraic Topology, but in the framework of cyclic cohomology and noncommutative geo...
متن کاملHarmonic functions on R-covered foliations
Let (M,F) be a compact codimension one foliated manifold whose leaves are endowed with Riemannian metrics and consider continuous functions on M that are harmonic along the leaves of F . If every such function is constant on leaves we say that (M,F) has the Liouville property. Our main result is that codimension-one foliated bundles over compact negatively curved manifolds satisfy the Liouville...
