Rigidity, volume and angle structures of 1-3 type hyperbolic polyhedral 3-manifolds

Abstract

In this paper, we study the rigidity of hyperbolic polyhedral 3-manifolds and the volume optimization program of angle structures. We first study the rigidity of decorated 1-3 type hyperbolic polyhedral metrics on 3-manifolds which are isometric gluing of decorated 1-3 type hyperbolic tetrahedra. Here a 1-3 type hyperbolic tetrahedron is a truncated hyperbolic tetrahedron with one hyperideal vertex and three ideal vertices. A decorated 1-3 type polyhedron is a 1-3 type hyperbolic polyhedron with a horosphere centered at each ideal vertex. We show that a decorated 1-3 type hyperbolic polyhedral metric is determined up to isometry and change of decorations by its curvature. We also prove several results on the volume optimization program of Casson and Rivin, i,e. Casson-Rivin's volume optimization program is shown to be still valid for 1-3 type ideal triangulated 3-manifolds. We also get a strongly 1-efficiency triangulation when assuming the existence of an angle structure. On the whole, we follow the spirit of Luo-Yang's work in 2018 to prove our main results. The main differences come from that the hyperbolic tetrahedra considered here have completely different geometry with those considered in Luo-Yang's work in 2018.

On the topology of manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature and linear volume growth

Understanding the relationships between geometry and topology is a central theme in Riemannian geometry. We establish two results on the fundamental groups of open (complete and noncompact) $n$-manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature and linear volume growth. First, we show that the fundamental group of such a manifold contains a subgroup $\mathbb{Z}^k$ of finite index, where $0\le k\le n-1$. Second, we prove that if the Ricci curvature is positive everywhere, then the fundamental group is finite. The proofs are based on an analysis of the equivariant asymptotic geometry of successive covering spaces and a plane/halfplane rigidity result for RCD spaces.

K-polystability of Asymptotically Conical Kähler-Ricci Shrinkers

Recently, Sun-Zhang have developed an algebraic theory for Kähler-Ricci shrinkers showing that they admit the structure of a polarized Fano fibration $(π: X \to Y, ξ)$. In particular, they conjecture that existence of a Kähler-Ricci shrinker metric is equivalent to a notion of K-stability. We prove one direction of this conjecture, namely that existence of a Kähler-Ricci shrinker metric $g$ implies K-polystability of $(π: X \to Y, ξ)$, in the case that the Ricci curvature of $g$ decays at infinity. As an application, we give a non-existence result: if $M$ is the blowup of a six-dimensional quadric along a two-dimensional subquadric, then the total space $X$ of the cube root of $K_M$ is a polarized Fano fibration not admitting a Kähler-Ricci shrinker.

Observações sobre funções potenciais de variedades quase-Einstein não compactas

Neste artigo, estudamos o conjunto de funções potenciais em variedades quase Einstein não compactas. Mostramos que o espaço de todas as funções potenciais positivas em uma variedade tridimensional não compacta quase-Einstein tem dimensão no máximo dois, e que a igualdade vale se e somente se a variedade for isométrica a um produto $B\times\mathbb{R}$, onde $B$ é uma superfície $λ$-Einstein ou um dos exemplos obtidos por L. Berard Bergery e descritos no livro de Besse. Além disso, provamos que qualquer variedade quase-Einstein assintoticamente plana $n$-dimensional com $λ=0$ é necessariamente Ricci-plana.
