Bishop-Gromov type comparison theorems for the volume of a tube about a sub-manifold of a complete Riemannian manifold whose Ricci curvature is bounded from below are proved. The Kähler analogue is also proved.

In this paper, we obtain a three-dimensional sphere theorem with integral curvature condition. On a closed three manifold [Formula: see text] with constant positive scalar curvature, if a certain combination of [Formula: see text] norm of the Ricci curvature and [Formula: see text] norm of the scalar curvature is positive, then [Formula: see text] is diffeomorphic to a spherical space form.

AbstractWe study Riemannian manifolds with boundary under a lower weighted Ricci curvature bound. We consider a curvature condition in which the weighted Ricci curvature is bounded from below by the density function. Under the curvature condition and a suitable condition for the weighted mean curvature for the boundary, we obtain various comparison geometric results.

AbstractIn this article, a proof of the interpolation inequality along geodesics in p-Wasserstein spaces is given. This interpolation inequality was the main ingredient to prove the Borel–Brascamp–Lieb inequality for general Riemannian and Finsler manifolds and led Lott–Villani and Sturm to define an abstract Ricci curvature condition. Following their ideas, a similar condition can be defined and for positively curved spaces one can prove a Poincaré inequality. Using Gigli’s recently developed calculus on metric measure spaces, even a q-Laplacian comparison theorem holds on q-infinitesimal convex spaces. In the appendix, the theory of Orlicz–Wasserstein spaces is developed and necessary adjustments to prove the interpolation inequality along geodesics in those spaces are given.
