We prove that when the dimension of the group of conformal transformations of a compact self-dual manifold is at least three, the conformal class contains either a metric with positive constant scalar curvature or a metric with zero scalar curvature. This result is combined with a topological classification of 4-manifolds to provide a complete geometrical classification of the compact self-dual manifolds whose symmetry group is at least three-dimensional.

Locally Conformally Flat

First, we shall prove that a compact connected oriented locally conformally flat n-dimensional Riemannian manifold with constant scalar curvature is isometric to a space form or a Riemannian product Sn−1(c) × S1 if its Ricci curvature is nonnegative. Second, we shall give a topological classification of compact connected oriented locally conformally flat n-dimensional Riemannian manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature r if the following inequality is satisfied: [sum ]i,jR2ij [les ] r2/(n−1), where [sum ]i,jR2ij is the squared norm of the Ricci curvature tensor.

Randers Metrics

AbstractSome families of Randers metrics of scalar flag curvature are studied in this paper. Explicit examples that are neither locally projectively flat nor of isotropic S-curvature are given. Certain Randers metrics with Einstein α are considered and proved to be complex. Three dimensional Randers manifolds, with α having constant scalar curvature, are studied.

The first attempt is undertaken to consider systematically topological structures of zirconosilicates and their analogs (60 minerals and 34 synthetic phases), where the simplest structure units are MO6 octahedra and TO4 tetrahedra united by vertices ([TO4]:[MO6] = 1:1–6:1). A method of analysis and classification of mixed three-dimensional MT frameworks by topological types with coordination sequences {N k } is developed, which is based on the representation of crystal structure as a finite `reduced' graph. The method is optimized for the frameworks of any composition and complexity and implemented within the TOPOS3.2 program package. A procedure of hierarchical analysis of MT-framework structure organization is proposed, which is based on the concept of polyhedral microensemble (PME) being a geometrical interpretation of coordination sequences of M and T nodes. All 12 theoretically possible PMEs of MT 6 polyhedral composition are considered where T is a separate and/or connected tetrahedron. Using this methodology the MT frameworks in crystal structures of zirconosilicates and their analogs were analyzed within the first 12 coordination spheres of M and T nodes and related to 41 topological types. The structural correlations were revealed between rosenbuschite, lavenite, hiortdahlite, woehlerite, siedozerite and the minerals of the eudialyte family.

Necessary And Sufficient

This review presents the results of recent years on solving of the Palis problem on finding necessary and sufficient conditions for the embedding of Morse-Smale cascades in topological flows. To date, the problem has been solved by Palis for Morse-Smale diffeomorphisms given on manifolds of dimension two. The result for the circle is a trivial exercise. In dimensions three and higher new effects arise related to the possibility of wild embeddings of closures of invariant manifolds of saddle periodic points that leads to additional obstacles for Morse-Smale diffeomorphisms to embed in topological flows. The progress achieved in solving of Paliss problem in dimension three is associated with the recently obtained complete topological classification of Morse-Smale diffeomorphisms on three-dimensional manifolds and the introduction of new invariants describing the embedding of separatrices of saddle periodic points in a supporting manifold. The transition to a higher dimension requires the latest results from the topology of manifolds. The necessary topological information, which plays key roles in the proofs, is also presented in the survey.

A Kähler metric [Formula: see text] with integral Kähler form is said to be partially regular if the partial Bergman kernel associated to [Formula: see text] is a positive constant for all integer [Formula: see text] sufficiently large. The aim of this paper is to prove that for all [Formula: see text] there exists an [Formula: see text]-dimensional complex manifold equipped with strictly partially regular and cscK metric [Formula: see text]. Further, for [Formula: see text], the (constant) scalar curvature of [Formula: see text] can be chosen to be zero, positive or negative.
