(不稳定)Gromov-Lawson-Rosenberg猜想的一个反例

A counterexample to the (unstable) Gromov-Lawson-Rosenberg conjecture

Thomas Schick

摘要:

在5-torus上做手术,用$π_1(M) = Z^4times Z/3$构造了一个5维闭自旋流形M,使得$π_1(M)$的约化$C^*$ -代数在KO-理论中的指数不变量为零.然后利用Schoen/Yau的极小曲面理论证明了这类流形不具有正的数量曲率度量.这种度量的存在由(不稳定的)Gromov-Lawson-Rosenberg猜想预言。

英文摘要:

Doing surgery on the 5-torus, we construct a 5-dimensional closed spin-manifold M with $π_1(M) = Z^4times Z/3$, so that the index invariant in the KO-theory of the reduced $C^*$-algebra of $π_1(M)$ is zero. Then we use the theory of minimal surfaces of Schoen/Yau to show that this manifolds cannot carry a metric of positive scalar curvature. The existence of such a metric is predicted by the (unstable) Gromov-Lawson-Rosenberg conjecture.
