And Topology

We establish a relative volume comparison theorem for minimal volume form of Finsler manifolds under integral Ricci curvature bound. As its applications, we obtain some results on integral Ricci curvature and topology of Finsler manifolds. These results generalize the corresponding properties with pointwise Ricci curvature bound in the literatures.

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.

AbstractIn this paper, we establish a universal volume comparison theorem for Finsler manifolds and give the Berger–Kazdan inequality and Santalá's formula in Finsler geometry. Based on these, we derive a Berger–Kazdan type comparison theorem and a Croke type isoperimetric inequality for Finsler manifolds.
