The positive mass theorem for ALE manifolds

Mattias Dahl (1997)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

We show what extra condition is necessary to be able to use the positive mass argument of Witten [12] on an asymptotically locally euclidean manifold. Specifically we show that the 'generalized positive action conjecture' holds if one assumes that the signature of the manifold has the correct value.

Various structures in 8-dimensional vector bundles over 8-manifolds

Martin Čadek, Jiří Vanžura (1998)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

The paper is an overview of our results concerning the existence of various structures, especially complex and quaternionic, in 8-dimensional vector bundles over closed connected smooth 8-manifolds.

On S(2) and S(2) · S(1) structures in 8-dimensional vector bundles.

Martin Cadek, Jirí Vanzura (1997)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

Similarity:

Let ξ be an oriented 8-dimensional vector bundle. We prove that the structure group SO(8) of ξ can be reduced to S(2) or S(2) · S(1) if and only if the vector bundle associated to ξ via a certain outer automorphism of the group Spin(8) has 3 linearly independent sections or contains a 3-dimensional subbundle. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of an S(2)- structure in ξ over a closed connected spin manifold of dimension 8 are also given in terms of characteristic classes. ...

Topological conjugacy of locally free 𝐑 n - 1 actions on n -manifolds

David C. Tischler, Rosamond W. Tischler (1974)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Similarity:

For actions as in the title we associate a collection of rotation numbers. If one of them is sufficiently irrational then the action is conjugate (as an action) to either a linear action on a torus or to an action on a principal T k bundle over T 2 with T k × R 1 orbits.

On quasihomogeneous manifolds – via Brion-Luna-Vust theorem

Marco Andreatta, Jarosław A. Wiśniewski (2003)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

We consider a smooth projective variety X on which a simple algebraic group G acts with an open orbit. We discuss a theorem of Brion-Luna-Vust in order to relate the action of G with the induced action of G on the normal bundle of a closed orbit of the action. We get effective results in case G = S ⁢ L ⁢ n and dim ⁡ X ≤ 2 ⁢ n - 2 .
