Abstract
Let be a complete, simply connected Riemannian manifold with sectional curvatures satisfying for some . Let be a Riemannian metric on such that outside a compact in , and with sectional curvatures satisfying . The identity map is bi-Lipschitz, and hence induces a homeomorphism between the boundaries at infinity of and , which we denote by . We show that if the boundary map is Moebius (i.e. preserves cross-ratios), then it extends to an isometry .
