To prove this result, we prove the almost-formality of de Rham complex of a Sasakian manifold with values in a semi-simple flat vector bundle. By the almost-formality, we also prove the vanishing theorem on the cup product of the cohomology of semi-simple flat vector bundles over a compact Sasakian manifold.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-07-29T01:06:07.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "fundamental group", "semi-simple flat vector bundle", "almost-formality", "deformations", "dimensional compact sasakian manifold" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 8, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
