Abstract

We prove that, given α>0\alpha>0, if MM is a complete Riemannian manifold which Ricci curvature satisfies.Ricx(v)αsech2(r(x)))\operatorname*{Ric}\nolimits_{x}(v)\geq\alpha\operatorname{sech}^{2} (r(x))) or Ricx(v)hα(r(x))r(x)2, \operatorname*{Ric}\nolimits_{x}(v)\geq-\frac{{h_{\alpha}} (r(x))}{r(x)^{2}}, where hα(r)=α(α+1)r(x)αr(x)α1, {h_{\alpha}}(r) = \frac{\alpha(\alpha+1)r(x)^{\alpha }}{r(x)^{\alpha }-1}, for all xM\BR(o)x\in M\backslash B_{R}(o) and for all vTxM,v\in T_{x}M, v=1,\left\Vert v\right\Vert =1, where \ oo is a fixed point of MM, r(x)=d(o,x)r(x)=d(o,x), dd the Riemannian distance in MM and BR(o)B_{R}(o) the geodesic ball of MM centered at oo with radius R>0R>0, then MM is pp-parabolic for any p>1p>1, if satisfies the first inequality, and MM is pp-parabolic, for any p(α+1)(n1)+1p\geq(\alpha+1)(n-1)+1, if satisfies the second inequality.
