Rigidity for Nonnegatively Curved Metrics on S2xR3
Kristopher Tapp
Abstract
We address the question: how large is the family of complete metrics with nonnegative sectional curvature on S2xR3? We classify the connection metrics, and give several examples of non-connection metrics. We provide evidence that the family is small by proving some rigidity results for metrics more general than connection metrics.
