In this paper, we obtain a three-dimensional sphere theorem with integral curvature condition. On a closed three manifold [Formula: see text] with constant positive scalar curvature, if a certain combination of [Formula: see text] norm of the Ricci curvature and [Formula: see text] norm of the scalar curvature is positive, then [Formula: see text] is diffeomorphic to a spherical space form.

A finite group G is a spherical space form group if it admits a fixed point free representation τ:G → U(k) for some k; for the remainder of this paper, we assume G is such a group. The eta invariant of Atiyah et al [2] defines Q/Z valued invariants of equivariant bordism. In [6], we showed the eta invariant completely detects the reduced equivariant unitary bordism groups and completely detects all but the 2-primary part of the reduced equivariant SpinC bordism groups . The coefficient ring is without torsion; all the torsion in is of order 2. The prime 2 plays a distinguished role in the discussion of equivariant SpinC bordism and is quite different from at the prime 2. Let ker*(η, G) denote the kernel of all eta invariants and let ker*(SW, G) denote the kernel of the Z2-equivariant Stiefel-Whitney numbers (see Section 1 for details). Then:THEOREM 0.1. Let. If M = ker*(η, G) ∩ ker*(SW, G), M = 0.

In this paper, we consider n (n ≥ 3)-dimensional compact oriented connected hypersurfaces with constant scalar curvature n(n − 1)r in the unit sphere Sn+1(1). We prove that, if r ≥ (n − 2)/(n − 1) and S ≤ (n − 1)(n(r − 1) + 2)/(n − 2) + (n − 2)/(n(r − 1) + 2), then either M is diffeomorphic to a spherical space form if n = 3; or M is homeomorphic to a sphere if n ≥ 4; or M is isometric to the Riemannian product , where c2 = (n − 2)/(nr) and S is the squared norm of the second fundamental form of M.

Throughout the history of the study of Einstein manifolds, researchers have sought relationships between the curvature and topology of such manifolds. In this paper, first, we prove that a compact Einstein manifold ( M , g ) with an Einstein constant α > 0 is a homological sphere when the minimum of its sectional curvatures > α / ( n + 2 ) ; in particular, ( M , g ) is a spherical space form when the minimum of its sectional curvatures > α / n . Second, we prove two propositions (similar to the above ones) for Tachibana numbers of a compact Einstein manifold with α < 0 .
