Abstract

Let H be the 3-dimensional Heisenberg group, ($G=H{\times}S^1$, g) a product Riemannian manifold of Riemannian manifolds H and S with arbitrarily given left invariant Riemannian metrics respectively, and ${\Gamma}$ the discrete subgroup of G with integer entries. Then, on the Riemannian manifold ($M:=G/{\Gamma}$, ${\Pi}^*g=\bar{g}$), ${\Pi}:G{\rightarrow}G/{\Gamma}$, we evaluate the scalar curvature and the Ricci curvature.
