Titel: | Construction of nonnegatively curved invariant metrics on homogeneous disc bundles |
Sprache (ISO): | en |
Zusammenfassung: | In this thesis we analyze under which conditions posed on the boundary metric we can construct nonnegatively curved invariant metrics on homogeneous disc bundles. The metrics we consider are constructed with a method which goes back to Cheeger. In course of analyzing the above stated problem it is shown that an arbitrary invariant metric on a sphere with positive sectional curvature can be extended to a positively curved metric on the ball having the sphere as its boundary, in such a way that the metric is a warped product metric near the boundary. Moreover we analyze in detail under which conditions an invariant metric on the product of an interval and a homogeneous space admits a reparametrization such that the reparametrized metric has nonnegative resp. positive sectional curvature. |
