Abstract
Given a compact Alexadrov -space with curvature curv , and let be a distance non-increasing onto map to another Alexandrov -space with curv . The relative volume rigidity conjecture says that if achieves the relative maximal volume i.e. , then is isometric to , where and if only if . We will partially verify this conjecture, and give a classification for compact Alexandrov -spaces with relatively maximal volume. We will also give an elementary proof for a pointed version of Bishop-Gromov relative volume comparison with rigidity in Alexandrov geometry.
