On Riemannian polyhedra with non-obtuse dihedral angles in 3-manifolds with positive scalar curvature

Abstract: We determine the combinatorial types of all the 3-dimensional simple convex polytopes in R^3 that can be realized as mean curvature convex (or totally geodesic) Riemannian polyhedra with non-obtuse dihedral angles in Riemannian 3-manifolds with positive scalar curvature. This result can be considered as an analogue of Andreev's theorem on 3-dimensional hyperbolic polyhedra with non-obtuse dihedral angles. In addition, we construct many examples of such kind of simple convex polytopes in higher dimensions.
