On the fundamental groups of compact Sasakian manifolds (Q2434610): Difference between revisions

A finitely generated group \(\Gamma\) is said to be Sasaki (Kähler) if it is the fundamental group of some compact Sasakian (Kähler) manifold. In the first part of the paper, the author proves that some basic results for Kähler groups remain true for Sasaki groups. Next, he obtains a classification result concerning those Sasaki groups that are also the fundamental group of some compact three-dimensional manifold. The last part of the paper is devoted to the study of the Abel-Jacobi map of a compact Sasakian manifold and its applications to Sasaki groups.
