A conformal de Rham complex

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We introduce the notion of a conformal de Rham complex of a Riemannian manifold. This is a graded differential Banach algebra and it is invariant under quasiconformal maps, in particular the associated cohomology is a new quasiconformal invariant.


A conformal map between two domains or Riemannian manifolds is a diffeomorphism preserving all angles. A quasiconformal map can be thought of as a homeomorphism which sends infinitesimal spheres to infinitesimal ellipsoids whose axes are uniformly bounded. In this article, the notion of a conformal de Rham complex of Riemannian manifolds is introduced. The associated cohomology as a new quasiconformal invariant of a graded differential Banach algebra is considered.
