In the present paper, we study twisted and warped products of Riemannian manifolds. As an application, we consider projective submersions of Riemannian manifolds, since any Riemannian manifold admitting a projective submersion is necessarily a twisted product of some two Riemannian manifolds.

Abstract We prove a Liouville-type theorem for two orthogonal complementary totally umbilical distributions on a complete Riemannian manifold with non-positive mixed scalar curvature. This is applied to some special types of complete doubly twisted and warped products of Riemannian manifolds.

In this article, the degenerate warped products of singular semi-Riemannian manifolds are studied. They were used recently by the author to handle singularities occurring in General Relativity, in black holes and at the big-bang. One main result presented here is that a degenerate warped product of semi-regular semi-Riemannian manifolds with the warping function satisfying a certain condition is a semi-regular semi-Riemannian manifold. The connection and the Riemann curvature of the warped product are expressed in terms of those of the factor manifolds. Examples of singular semi-Riemannian manifolds which are semi-regular are constructed as warped products. Applications include cosmological models and black holes solutions with semi-regular singularities. Such singularities are compatible with a certain reformulation of the Einstein equation, which in addition holds at semi-regular singularities too.

AbstractWe prove the macroscopic cousins of three conjectures: (1) a conjectural bound of the simplicial volume of a Riemannian manifold in the presence of a lower scalar curvature bound, (2) the conjecture that rationally essential manifolds do not admit metrics of positive scalar curvature, (3) a conjectural bound of $$\ell ^2$$ ℓ 2 -Betti numbers of aspherical Riemannian manifolds in the presence of a lower scalar curvature bound. The macroscopic cousin is the statement one obtains by replacing a lower scalar curvature bound by an upper bound on the volumes of 1-balls in the universal cover.

Mathematicians have shown interest in manifolds endowed with several distributions, e.g., webs composed of different regular foliations and multiply warped products, as well as distributions having variable dimensions (e.g., singular Riemannian foliations). In this paper, we extend our previous study of the mixed scalar curvature of two orthogonal singular distributions for the case of $k>2$ singular (or regular) pairwise orthogonal distributions, prove an integral formula with this kind of curvature, and illustrate it by characterizing autoparallel singular distributions.

AbstractA partial differential equation, the local Möbius equation, is introduced in Riemannian geometry which completely characterizes the local twisted product structure of a Riemannian manifold. Also the characterizations of warped product and product structures of Riemannian manifolds are made by the local Möbius equation and an additional partial differential equation.

A Riemannian manifold endowed with k>2 orthogonal complementary distributions (called here an almost multi-product structure) appears in such topics as multiply twisted or warped products and the webs or nets composed of orthogonal foliations. In this article, we define the mixed scalar curvature of an almost multi-product structure endowed with a linear connection, and represent this kind of curvature using fundamental tensors of distributions and the divergence of a geometrically interesting vector field. Using this formula, we prove decomposition and non-existence theorems and integral formulas that generalize results (for k=2) on almost product manifolds with the Levi-Civita connection. Some of our results are illustrated by examples with statistical and semi-symmetric connections.

Let Fm = (M, F) be a Finsler manifold and G be the Sasaki-Finsler metric on the slit tangent bundle TM0 = TM \{0} of M. We express the scalar curvature ?~ of the Riemannian manifold (TM0,G) in terms of some geometrical objects of the Finsler manifold Fm. Then, we find necessary and sufficient conditions for ?~ to be a positively homogenenous function of degree zero with respect to the fiber coordinates of TM0. Finally, we obtain characterizations of Landsberg manifolds, Berwald manifolds and Riemannian manifolds whose ?~ satisfies the above condition.

AbstractIn this paper, we establish a finiteness theorem for $L^{p}$ L p harmonic 1-forms on a locally conformally flat Riemannian manifold under the assumptions on the Schrödinger operators involving the squared norm of the traceless Ricci form. This result can be regarded as a generalization of Han’s result on $L^{2}$ L 2 harmonic 1-forms.
