We prove that on a large family of metric measure spaces, if the $L^p$-gradient estimate for heat flows holds for some $p>2$, then the $L^1$-gradient estimate also holds. This result extends Savar\'e's result on metric measure spaces, and…

We study Riemannian manifolds with boundary under a lower $N$-weighted Ricci curvature bound for $N$ at most $1$, and under a lower weighted mean curvature bound for the boundary. We examine rigidity phenomena in such manifolds with…

We prove a curvature-dimension criterion and obtain logarithmic Sobolev inequalities for generalised Cauchy measures with optimal weights and explicit constants. In the one-dimensional case, this constant is even optimal. From these…

We prove higher summability and regularity of \Gamma(f) for functions f in spaces satisfying the Bakry-\'Emery condition BE(K,\infty). As a byproduct, we obtain various equivalent weak formulations of BE(K,N) and we prove the…

We establish new sharp inequalities of Poincar\'{e} or log-Sobolev type, on geodesically-convex weighted Riemannian manifolds $(M,\mathfrak{g},\mu)$ whose (generalized) Ricci curvature $Ric_{\mathfrak{g},\mu,N}$ with effective dimension…

This paper studies sharp and rigid isoperimetric comparison theorems and asymptotic isoperimetric properties for small and large volumes on $N$-dimensional ${\rm RCD}(K,N)$ spaces $(X,\mathsf{d},\mathscr{H}^N)$. Moreover, we obtain almost…

We consider metric measure spaces $(X,\mathsf{d},\mathscr{H}^N)$ satisfying the properties (ETR), (LBD), and with an almost everywhere connected regular set. In particular, these assumptions are fulfilled by non-collapsed RCD$(K,N)$ spaces…

In this article, we found a connection between Brown-York mass and the first Dirichlet Eigenvalue of a Schr\"odingier type operator. In particular, we proved a local positive mass type theorem for metrics conformal to the background one…

We show that for every compact domain in a Euclidean space with d.c. (delta-convex) boundary there exists a unique Legendrian cycle such that the associated curvature measures fulfil a local version of the Gauss-Bonnet formula. This was…

Curvature is a key notion in General Relativity, characterizing the local physical properties of spacetime. By contrast, the concept of curvature has received scant attention in nonperturbative quantum gravity. One may even wonder whether…

For three dimensional complete, non-compact Riemannian manifolds with non-negative Ricci curvature and uniformly positive scalar curvature, we obtain the sharp linear volume growth ratio and the corresponding rigidity.

We show that under certain technical assumptions, including the existence of a constant mean curvature (CMC) slice and strict positivity of the scalar field, general relativity conformally coupled to a scalar field can be quantised on a…

In this article, we investigate the volume comparison with respect to scalar curvature. In particular, we show volume comparison holds for small geodesic balls of metrics near a V-static metric. For closed manifold, we prove the volume…

The general dual volume $\dveV(K)$ and the general dual Orlicz curvature measure $\deV(K, \cdot)$ were recently introduced for functions $G: (0, \infty)\times \sphere\rightarrow (0, \infty)$ and convex bodies $K$ in $\R^n$ containing the…

We derive logarithmic gradient estimate and universal boundedness estimate for semilinear elliptic equations on \RCD\, metric measure spaces, which contains the class of Riemannian manifolds with Ricci curvature bounded below. These…

Let $(X,d)$ be a compact metric space. We consider the behavior of probability measures $\mu$ with the property that $$ \int_{X} d(x, y) d\mu(y) \qquad \mbox{is independent of}~x \in X.$$ It appears that such measures, when they exist,…

The goal of this note is to demonstrate how existing results can be adapted to establish the following result: A locally metric measure homogeneous $\mathrm{RCD}(K,N)$ space is isometric to, after multiplying a positive constant to the…

We study orientability in spaces with Ricci curvature bounded below. Building on the theory developed by Honda, we establish equivalent characterizations of orientability for Ricci limit and RCD spaces in terms of the orientability of their…
