Isometries of Riemannian and sub-Riemannian structures on three-dimensional Lie groups

Rory Biggs (2017)

Communications in Mathematics

We investigate the isometry groups of the left-invariant Riemannian and sub-Riemannian structures on simply connected three-dimensional Lie groups. More specifically, we determine the isometry group for each normalized structure and hence characterize for exactly which structures (and groups) the isotropy subgroup of the identity is contained in the group of automorphisms of the Lie group. It turns out (in both the Riemannian and sub-Riemannian cases) that for most structures any isometry is the...

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.
