Llarull type theorems for bands in Three and Four dimensions

Differential Geometry 2026-02-26 v1

Abstract

Llarull's theorem asserts that the scalar curvature and the metric on the nn-sphere cannot be bounded below at the same time by those of the standard nn-sphere. Using the warped μ\mu-bubble method, we develop Llarull type theorems for three and four-dimensional bands with spectral scalar curvature bounds.
