A local version of the Myers-Steenrod Theorem

Differential Geometry 2020-07-01 v2

Abstract

We prove the Myers-Steenrod theorem for local topological groups of isometries acting on pointed Ck,α\mathcal{C}^{k,\alpha}-Riemannian manifolds, with k+α>0k+\alpha>0. As an application, we infer a new regularity result for a certain class of locally homogeneous Riemannian metrics.
