Construction of BGG sequences for AHS structures

Lukáš Krump (2001)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

This paper gives a description of a method of direct construction of the BGG sequences of invariant operators on manifolds with AHS structures on the base of representation theoretical data of the Lie algebra defining the AHS structure. Several examples of the method are shown.

Construction of compact constant mean curvature hypersurfaces with topology

Mohamed Jleli (2012)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

In this paper, we explain how the end-to-end construction together with the moduli space theory can be used to produce compact constant mean curvature hypersurfaces with nontrivial topology. For the sake of simplicity, the hypersurfaces we construct have a large group of symmetry but the method can certainly be used to provide many more examples with less symmetries.

Construction of Einstein metrics by generalized Dehn filling

Richard H. Bamler (2012)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

In this paper, we present a new approach to the construction of Einstein metrics by a generalization of Thurston's Dehn filling. In particular in dimension 3, we will obtain an analytic proof of Thurston's result.

Contact 3-manifolds twenty years since J. Martinet's work

Yakov Eliashberg (1992)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

The paper gives an account of the recent development in 3-dimensional contact geometry. The central result of the paper states that there exists a unique tight contact structure on S 3 . Together with the earlier classification of overtwisted contact structures on 3-manifolds this result completes the classification of contact structures on S 3 .

Contact CR-Submanifolds of Kenmotsu Manifolds

Atçeken, Mehmet (2011)

Serdica Mathematical Journal

2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 53C15, 53C42.In this paper, we research some fundamental properties of contact CR-Submanifolds of a Kenmotsu manifold. We show that the anti-invariant distribution is always integrable and give a necessary and sufficient condition for the invariant distribution to be integrable. After then, properties of the induced structures on submanifold by almost contact metric structure on the ambient manifold are categorized. Finally, we give some results for contact...

Contact CR-submanifolds with parallel mean curvature vector of a Sasakian space form

U-Hang Ki, Masahiro Kon (1993)

Colloquium Mathematicae

The purpose of this paper is to study contact CR-submanifolds with nonvanishing parallel mean curvature vector immersed in a Sasakian space form. In §1 we state general formulas on contact CR-submanifolds of a Sasakian manifold, especially those of a Sasakian space form. §2 is devoted to the study of contact CR-submanifolds with nonvanishing parallel mean curvature vector and parallel f-structure in the normal bundle immersed in a Sasakian space form. Moreover, we suppose that the second fundamental...

Contact manifolds, harmonic curvature tensor and ( k , μ ) -nullity distribution

Basil J. Papantoniou (1993)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

In this paper we give first a classification of contact Riemannian manifolds with harmonic curvature tensor under the condition that the characteristic vector field ξ belongs to the ( k , μ ) -nullity distribution. Next it is shown that the dimension of the ( k , μ ) -nullity distribution is equal to one and therefore is spanned by the characteristic vector field ξ .

Contact normal submanifolds and contact generic normal submanifolds in Kenmotsu manifolds.

Minoru Kobayashi (1991)

Revista Matemática de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid

We study contact normal submanifolds and contact generic normal in Kenmotsu manifolds and in Kenmotsu space forms. Submanifolds mentioned above with certain conditions in forms space Kenmotsu are shown that they CR-manifolds, spaces of constant curvature, locally symmetric and Einsteinnian. Also, the non-existence of totally umbilical submanifolds in a Kenmotsu space form -1 is proven under a certain condition.

Contact topology and the structure of 5-manifolds with π 1 = 2

Hansjörg Geiges, Charles B. Thomas (1998)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

We prove a structure theorem for closed, orientable 5-manifolds M with fundamental group π 1 ( M ) = 2 and second Stiefel-Whitney class equal to zero on H 2 ( M ) . This structure theorem is then used to construct contact structures on such manifolds by applying contact surgery to fake projective spaces and certain 2 -quotients of  S 2 × S 3 .

Continued fractions on the Heisenberg group

Anton Lukyanenko, Joseph Vandehey (2015)

Acta Arithmetica

We provide a generalization of continued fractions to the Heisenberg group. We prove an explicit estimate on the rate of convergence of the infinite continued fraction and several surprising analogs of classical formulas about continued fractions.
