Descriptif

In this talk, I will discuss some recent developments on the topology of closed manifolds admitting Riemannian metrics of positive scalar curvature. In particular, we will prove if a closed PSC manifold of dimension 4 (resp. 5) has vanishing π2 (resp. vanishing π2 and π3), then a finite cover of it is homotopy equivalent to Snor connected sums of Sn-1 x S1. This extends a previous theorem on the non-existence of Riemannian metrics of positive scalar curvature on aspherical manifolds in 4 and 5 dimensions, due to Chodosh and myself and independently Gromov. A key step in the proof is a homological filling estimate in sufficiently connected PSC manifolds. This is based on joint work with Otis Chodosh and Yevgeny Liokumovich.
