Isospectral deformations of closed riemannian manifolds with different scalar curvature

Carolyn S. Gordon, Ruth Gornet, Dorothee Schueth, David L. Webb, Edward N. Wilson (1998)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

We construct the first examples of continuous families of isospectral Riemannian metrics that are not locally isometric on closed manifolds , more precisely, on S n × T m , where T m is a torus of dimension m 2 and S n is a sphere of dimension n 4 . These metrics are not locally homogeneous; in particular, the scalar curvature of each metric is nonconstant. For some of the deformations, the maximum scalar curvature changes during the deformation.

Isospectral Riemann surfaces

Peter Buser (1986)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

We construct new examples of compact Riemann surfaces which are non isometric but have the same spectrum of the Laplacian. Examples are given for genus g = 5 and for all g 7 . In a second part we give examples of isospectral non isometric surfaces in R 3 which are realizable by paper models.

Isotropic curvature: A survey

Harish Seshadri (2007/2008)

Séminaire de théorie spectrale et géométrie

We discuss the notion of isotropic curvature of a Riemannian manifold and relations between the sign of this curvature and the geometry and topology of the manifold.

L p , q -cohomology of warped cylinders

Yaroslav Kopylov (2009)

Annales mathématiques Blaise Pascal

We extend some results by Gol dshtein, Kuz minov, and Shvedov about the L p -cohomology of warped cylinders to L p , q -cohomology for p q . As an application, we establish some sufficient conditions for the nontriviality of the L p , q -torsion of a surface of revolution.
