Kähler-Ricci solitons with almost maximal symmetry

Ha Tuan Dung, Catherine Searle, Hung Tran

This paper studies a non-trivial gradient Kähler-Ricci soliton, of complex dimension , with an isometry group of dimension at least . We show that the isometry group acts…

Positive -intermediate scalar curvature and cobordism

Matthew Burkemper, Catherine Searle, Mark Walsh

In this paper we consider a well-known construction due to Gromov and Lawson, Schoen and Yau, Gajer, and Walsh which allows for the extension of a metric of positive scalar curvatu…

Positive curvature and discrete abelian symmetry

Lee Kennard, Elahe Khalili Samani, Catherine Searle

By replacing the torus with an elementary abelian two-group, we generalize the maximal symmetry result of Grove and Searle and the half-maximal symmetry result of Wilking for posit…

Odd-dimensional GKM-manifolds of non-negative curvature

Christine Escher, Oliver Goertsches, Catherine Searle

We prove for closed, odd-dimensional GKM manifolds of non-negative sectional curvature that both the equivariant and the ordinary rational cohomology split off the cohomology o…

Almost non-negatively curved 4-manifolds with torus symmetry

John Harvey, Catherine Searle

We prove that if a closed, smooth, simply-connected 4-manifold with a circle action admits an almost non-negatively curved sequence of invariant Riemannian metrics, then it also ad…

Positively curved Riemannian orbifolds and Alexandrov spaces with circle symmetry in dimension 4

John Harvey, Catherine Searle

We classify positively curved Alexandrov spaces of dimension 4 with an isometric circle action up to equivariant homeomorphism, subject to a certain additional condition on the inf…

Alexandrov Spaces with Integral Current Structure

Maree Jaramillo, Raquel Perales, Priyanka Rajan +2

We endow each closed, orientable Alexandrov space with an integral current of weight equal to 1, , in other words, we prove that $(X, d…

Orientation and symmetries of Alexandrov spaces with applications in positive curvature

John Harvey, Catherine Searle

We develop two new tools for use in Alexandrov geometry: a theory of ramified orientable double covers and a particularly useful version of the Slice Theorem for actions of compact…

Positively curved manifolds with maximal symmetry rank

Karsten Grove, Catherine Searle

The symmetry-rank of a riemannian manifold is by definition the rank of its isometry group. We determine precisely which smooth closed manifolds admit a positively curved metric wi…
