Feb 3, 2016 at 8:02 | comment | added | Sebastian Goette | You can probably also produce surface examples. Here, one would take a warped product of a line and a circle. The warping function $f$ needs to have very slender and high peeks, say centered at $2^k$ of hight $2^k$ and width $2^k/k^2$, outside of these peeks, it has to decay sufficiently fast to produce finite volume. The peeks are so steep that you cannot realise these surfaces as surfaces of revolution in \mathbb R^3$, though. | |
