Almost flat manifold

Almost flat manifold (Redirected from Gromov–Ruh theorem) Aller à la navigation Aller à la recherche En mathématiques, a smooth compact manifold M is called almost flat if for any {displaystyle varepsilon >0} there is a Riemannian metric {style d'affichage g_{varepsilon }} on M such that {style d'affichage {mbox{diam}}(M,g_{varepsilon })leq 1} et {style d'affichage g_{varepsilon }} est {displaystyle varepsilon } -flat, c'est à dire. for the sectional curvature of {style d'affichage K_{g_{varepsilon }}} Nous avons {style d'affichage |K_{g_{epsilon }}|0} such that if an n-dimensional manifold admits an {displaystyle varepsilon _{n}} -flat metric with diameter {style d'affichage leq 1} then it is almost flat. D'autre part, one can fix the bound of sectional curvature and get the diameter going to zero, so the almost-flat manifold is a special case of a collapsing manifold, which is collapsing along all directions.

According to the Gromov–Ruh theorem, M is almost flat if and only if it is infranil. En particulier, it is a finite factor of a nilmanifold, which is the total space of a principal torus bundle over a principal torus bundle over a torus.
