abstract

J. Rosenberg's $\mathbb{S}^1$-stability conjecture states that a closed oriented manifold $X$ admits a positive scalar curvature metric iff $X\times \mathbb{S}^1$ admits a positive scalar curvature metric $h$. As pointed out by J. Rosenberg and others, there are known counterexamples in dimension four. We prove this conjecture whenever $h$ satisfies a geometric bound which measures the discrepancy between $\partial_\theta\in T\mathbb{S}^1$ and the normal vector field to $X\times \{P\}$, for a fixed $P\in \mathbb{S}^1.$

    For closed oriented manifolds X with dim X ≥ 5 and χ(X)=0, the Rosenberg S¹-stability conjecture holds: X × S¹ admits a PSC metric if and only if X does.

  2. Scalar and Mean Curvature Comparison on Compact Cylinder

    math.DG 2025-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    On a compact cylinder X×I with positive scalar curvature and nonnegative mean curvature, the angle condition guarantees existence of a metric with positive scalar curvature on X, forcing negative mean curvature if X a...
