9704765琼斯-波雷尔猜想指出,任何非球面闭流形都应该由它的基本群在拓扑上决定。这一研究项目将提供一种新的几何工具,使研究者能够对基础群同构于非正弯曲黎曼流形的基本群的任何非球面闭流形验证这一猜想。几何工具包括由切格-富卡亚-格罗莫夫等人发展的几何塌陷理论的推广。在这个项目中,L.E.琼斯(与F.T.Farrell合作)将为有叶的黎曼流形发展一个折叠理论。“二维流形”是一种“空间”,在观察者看来,它与空间中任何一点附近的欧几里德平面完全相似,但从整体上看,它可能根本不是欧几里得空间。例如,如果我们真的在地球表面,地球表面看起来就像一个平面,但从太空观察时,它看起来是一个球体。19世纪的数学家们已经很好地理解了二维流形。还有三维流形、四维流形等,这些流形还不太为人所知;事实上,数学家对高维流形的探索激发了20世纪许多拓扑研究的动机。研究流形性质的一种方法是聚焦于一个相关的代数对象(这更容易理解),称为它的“基本群”。一个著名的数学猜想指出,对于一类特殊的高维流形(称为非球面流形),基本群应该起到流形遗传密码的作用,揭示流形内部的所有拓扑秘密。这个项目的目的是验证这一猜想。***
英文摘要
9704765 Jones The Borel Conjecture states that any aspherical closed manifold should be topologically determined by its fundamental group. This research project will provide a new geometric tool that will enable the investigator to verify this conjecture for any aspherical closed manifold whose fundamental group is isomorphic to the fundamental group of a non-positively curved Riemannian manifold. The geometric tool consists of a generalization of the geometric collapsing theory developed by the geometers Cheeger-Fukaya-Gromov and others. In this project L. E. Jones (in collaboration with F. T. Farrell) will develop a collapsing theory for foliated Riemannian manifolds. A "two-dimensional manifold" is a "space" that looks exactly like the Euclidean plane to an observer near any point in the space, but which when observed as a whole may not be Euclidean space at all. For example the earth's surface looks like a flat plane if we are actually on its surface, but when observed from space, it is seen to be a sphere. Two-dimensional manifolds were already well understood by mathematicians of the 19th century. There are also 3-dimensional manifolds, 4-dimensional manifolds, etc., manifolds that are less well understood; in fact, the mathematician's quest to understand higher dimensional manifolds has motivated much of the topological research of the 20th century. One way to investigate the nature of a manifold is to focus on an associated algebraic object (that is much easier to understand) called its "fundamental group." A famous mathematical conjecture states that for a special class of higher dimensional manifolds (called "aspherical manifolds"), the fundamental group should act like a genetic code for the manifold, revealing all of its inner topological secrets. The aim of this project is to verify this conjecture. ***
