Estimates of Kolmogorov, Gelfand and linear $n$- widths on Compact Riemannian Manifolds

We determine lower and exact estimates of Kolmogorov, Gelfand and linear $n$-widths of unit balls in Sobolev norms in $L_{p}$-spaces on compact Riemannian manifolds. As it was shown by us previously these lower estimates are exact asymptotically in the case of compact homogeneous manifolds. The proofs rely on two-sides estimates for the near-diagonal localization of kernels of functions of elliptic operators.
