The Soliton-Ricci Flow with variable volume forms

Nefton Pali (2016)

Complex Manifolds

We introduce a flow of Riemannian metrics and positive volume forms over compact oriented manifolds whose formal limit is a shrinking Ricci soliton. The case of a fixed volume form has been considered in our previouswork.We still call this new flow, the Soliton-Ricci flow. It corresponds to a forward Ricci type flow up to a gauge transformation. This gauge is generated by the gradient of the density of the volumes. The new Soliton-Ricci flow exist for all times. It represents the gradient flow of...

Three-manifolds and Kähler groups

D. Kotschick (2012)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We give a simple proof of a result originally due to Dimca and Suciu: a group that is both Kähler and the fundamental group of a closed three-manifold is finite. We also prove that a group that is both the fundamental group of a closed three-manifold and of a non-Kähler compact complex surface is or 2 .
