Simplicial nonpositive curvature

Tadeusz Januszkiewicz, Jacek Świątkowski (2006)

Publications Mathématiques de l'IHÉS

Similarity:

We introduce a family of conditions on a simplicial complex that we call local -largeness (≥6 is an integer). They are simply stated, combinatorial and easily checkable. One of our themes is that local 6-largeness is a good analogue of the non-positive curvature: locally 6-large spaces have many properties similar to non-positively curved ones. However, local 6-largeness neither implies nor is implied by non-positive curvature of the standard metric. One can think of these results as...

Geometrization of three manifolds and Perelman's proof.

Joan Porti (2008)

RACSAM

Similarity:

This is a survey about Thurston’s geometrization conjecture of three manifolds and Perelman’s proof with the Ricci flow. In particular we review the essential contribution of Hamilton as well as some results in topology relevants for the proof.
