摘要：

Some theorems proved by Thorpe concerning the connection between the critical point structure of the Riemannian (sectional) curvature function and the Petrov classification are extended. A similar function is defined whose critical point structure is connected with the algebraic classification of the Ricci tensor. © 1979 Plenum Publishing Corporation.
