Abstract

Let (M,gˉ,efdμ)(M,\bar{g}, e^{-f}d\mu) be a complete metric measure space with Bakry-\'Emery Ricci curvature bounded below by a positive constant. We prove that, in MM, there is no complete two-sided LfL_f-stable immersed ff-minimal hypersurface with finite weighted volume. Further, if MM is a 3-manifold, we prove a smooth compactness theorem for the space of complete embedded ff-minimal surfaces in MM with the uniform upper bounds of genus and weighted volume, which generalizes the compactness theorem for complete self-shrinkers in R3\mathbb{R}^3 by Colding-Minicozzi.
