Characterizations of model manifolds by means of certain differential systems

Abstract

We prove metric rigidity for complete manifolds supporting solutions of certain second order differential systems, thus extending classical works on a characterization of space-forms. In the route, we also discover new characterizations of space-forms. We next generalize results concerning metric rigidity via equations involving vector fields.
