Abstract

We show that results about spaces or moduli spaces of positive scalar curvature metrics proved using index theory can typically be extended to non-negative scalar curvature metrics. We illustrate this by providing explicit generalizations of some classical results concerning moduli spaces of positive scalar curvature metrics. We also present the first examples of manifolds with infinitely many path-components of Ricci non-negative metrics in both the compact and non-compact cases.
