Abstract
In this paper, we prove the diameter comparison, the global weighted volume comparison and the splitting theorem in weighted manifolds when the infinity-Bakry-Emery Ricci curvature has a lower bound in the spectrum sense. Our results extend Antonelli-Xu's spectral Bonnet-Myers and Bishop-Gromov theorems, and Antonelli-Pozzetta-Xu's spectral splitting theorem to weighted manifolds. Our results are also some supplements of Chu-Hao's spectral diameter and global volume comparisons, and Yeung's spectral splitting theorem in weighted manifolds.
