Abstract: |
Seventy years ago, Myers and Steenrod showed that the isometry group of a
Riemannian manifold without boundary has a structure of Lie group. In 2007, Bagaev and
Zhukova proved the same result for a Riemannian orbifold. In this paper, the authors first
show that the isometry group of a Riemannian manifold M with boundary has dimension
at most 1/2 dimM(dimM ?1). Then such Riemannian manifolds with boundary that |
