Notes on scalar curvature lower bounds of steady gradient Ricci solitons

Differential Geometry 2026-05-22 v4

Abstract

We provide new type of decay estimate for scalar curvatures of steady gradient Ricci solitons. We also give certain upper bound for the diameter of a Riemannian manifold whose \infty-Bakry--Emery Ricci tensor is bounded by some positive constant from below. For the proofs, we use μ\mu-bubbles introduced by Gromov.
