Solvable Algebraic Generalized Ricci Solitons in low dimensions

Abstract

We prove new structural results for algebraic generalized Ricci solitons on solvable Lie algebras and we discuss the existence of examples in low dimensions. We establish that all non-trivial solvable algebraic generalized Ricci solitons must be expanding and give necessary conditions for the existence of such solitons on one-dimensional extensions of abelian Lie algebras. Finally, we classify algebraic generalized Ricci solitons on three-dimensional Lie algebras, and algebraic generalized Ricci solitons on four-dimensional solvable unimodular Lie algebras, up to isometry and scaling.

Classification of compact manifolds with positive isotropic curvature

We show the following result: Let $(M,g_0)$ be a compact manifold of dimension $n\geq 12$ with positive isotropic curvature. Then $M$ is diffeomorphic to a spherical space form, or a quotient manifold of $\mathbb{S}^{n-1}\times \mathbb{R}$ by a cocompact discrete subgroup of the isometry group of the round cylinder $\mathbb{S}^{n-1}\times \mathbb{R}$, or a connected sum of a finite number of such manifolds. This extends previous works of Brendle and Chen-Tang-Zhu, and improves a work of Huang. The proof uses Ricci flow with surgery on compact orbifolds, with the help of the ambient isotopy uniqueness of closed tubular neighborhoods of an isolated singular point in an orbifold.

A quadratic lower bound for the number of minimal geodesics

A minimal geodesic on a Riemannian manifold is a geodesic defined on $\mathbb{R}$ that lifts to a globally distance minimizing curve on the universal covering. Bangert proved that there is a lower bound for the number of geometrically distinct minimal geodesics of closed Riemannian manifolds that is linear in the first Betti number, using the stable norm unit ball on the first homology. We refine this method to obtain a quadratic lower bound.

Morse index and nullity of rotationally symmetric $Y$-singular minimal surfaces

We compute the Morse index and nullity of a one-parameter family of rotationally symmetric minimal $Y$-singular surfaces in $\mathbb R^3$ whose singular set is a circle. The second variation is studied on a weighted energy space adapted to the noncompact faces and decomposed into angular Fourier modes. The resulting modewise problem separates the fixed-junction Dirichlet contribution from a finite-dimensional junction form. The exceptional resonant radial mode is treated directly. We prove that the $Y$-catenoid has index one and nullity three, while $Y_α$ has index two and nullity five for $0<α\leqπ/3$.
