Moduli Spaces of Metrics of Positive Scalar Curvature on Topological Spherical Space Forms

19 Feb 2020 · Reiser Philipp ·

Let $M$ be a topological spherical space form, i.e. a smooth manifold whose universal cover is a homotopy sphere. We determine the number of path components of the space and moduli space of Riemannian metrics with positive scalar curvature on $M$ if the dimension of $M$ is at least 5 and $M$ is not simply-connected.
