Classification conjecture for compact reducible Riemannian manifolds with conformal product structures
Classification conjecture for compact reducible Riemannian manifolds with conformal product structures
Let be a compact connected Riemannian manifold with reducible holonomy, and let be a conformal product structure on different from the Levi-Civita connection of . Classification conjecture. The manifold is either conformally flat or a triple product. Here, a triple product is a Riemannian manifold locally isometric to a product construction of three manifolds, with metric on , where is a smooth function on . The conjecture is presented as evidence toward a classification of compact reducible Riemannian manifolds carrying non-Levi-Civita conformal product structures; the supplied text does not establish whether the proposed dichotomy is proved or remains open.
