Finite Diffeomorphism Theorem for manifolds with lower Ricci curvature and bounded energy

Differential Geometry 2024-05-14 v1

Abstract

In this paper we prove that the space \cM(n,\rv,D,Λ):={(Mn,g) closed :  \Ric(n1), \Vol(M)\rv>0,\diam(M)D and M\Rmn/2Λ}\cM(n,\rv,D,\Lambda):=\{(M^n,g) \text{ closed }: ~~\Ric\ge -(n-1),~\Vol(M)\ge \rv>0, \diam(M)\le D \text{ and } \int_{M}|\Rm|^{n/2}\le \Lambda\} has at most C(n,\rv,D,Λ)C(n,\rv,D,\Lambda) many diffeomorphism types. This removes the upper Ricci curvature bound of Anderson-Cheeger's finite diffeomorphism theorem in \cite{AnCh}. Furthermore, if MM is K\"ahler surface, the Riemann curvature L2L^2 bound could be replaced by the scalar curvature L2L^2 bound.
