In honour of the 65th birthday of Professor M Obata a workshop was held at Keio University. This volume includes notes on the talks and discussions which took place and cover a wide range of subjects on geometry, global analysis, topology and mathematical physics.
The Taniguchi Symposium on global analysis on manifolds focused mainly on the relationships between some geometric structures of manifolds and analysis, especially spectral analysis on noncompact manifolds. Included in the present volume are expanded versions of most of the invited lectures. In these original research articles, the reader will find up-to date accounts of the subject.
This volume provides an excellent introduction of the statement and main ideas in the proof of the orbifold theorem announced by Thurston in late 1981. It is based on the authors' lecture series entitled "Geometric Structures on 3-Dimensional Orbifolds" which was featured in the third MSJ Regional Workshop on "Cone-Manifolds and Hyperbolic Geometry" held on July 1-10, 1998, at Tokyo Institute of Technology. The orbifold theorem shows the existence of geometric structures on many 3-orbifolds and on 3-manifolds with symmetry. The authors develop the basic properties of orbifolds and cone-manifolds, extends many ideas from the differential geometry to the setting of cone-manifolds and outlines a proof of the orbifold theorem.
Issue for Mar. 1970 dedicated to Professor Katuzi Ono on his 60th birthday with portrait, sketch of his life, and list of mathematical papers.
