In this paper, we study some structure properties on the (revised) fundamental group of RCD(0,N) spaces. Our main result generalizes earlier work of Sormani on Riemannian manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature and small linear diameter…

In 1968, Milnor conjectured that a complete noncompact manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature has a finitely generated fundamental group. The author applies the Excess Theorem of Abresch and Gromoll (1990), to prove two theorems. The…

Since non-compact RCD(0, N) spaces have at least linear volume growth, we study noncompact RCD(0, N) spaces with linear volume growth in this paper. One of the main results is that the diameter of level sets of a Busemann function grow at…

Let $(X,d)$ be an $n$-dimensional Alexandrov space whose Hausdorff measure $\mathcal{H}^n$ satisfies a condition giving the metric measure space $(X,d,\mathcal{H}^n)$ a notion of having nonnegative Ricci curvature. We examine the influence…

The main results of this paper consists of two parts. Firstly, we obtain an almost rigidity theorem which says that on a RCD(0, N) space, when a domain between two level sets of a distance function has almost maximal volume compared to that…

We generalize and strengthen the theorem of Gromov that every compact Riemannian manifold of diameter at most D has a set of generators g_1,...,g_k of length at most 2D and relators of the form g_ig_m = g_j . In particular, we obtain an…

In this paper, we study the topology of complete noncompact Riemannian manifolds with asymptotically nonnegative Ricci curvature and large volume growth. We prove that they have finite topological types under some curvature decay and volume…

The paper concerns the Gelfand-Kirillov dimension and the generating series of nonsymmetric operads. An analogue of Bergman's gap theorem is proved, namely, no finitely generated locally finite nonsymmetric operad has Gelfand-Kirillov…

Understanding the relationships between geometry and topology is a central theme in Riemannian geometry. We establish two results on the fundamental groups of open (complete and noncompact) $n$-manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature and…

In this paper we prove that a metric measure space $(X,d,m)$ satisfying the finite Riemannian curvature-dimension condition ${\sf RCD}(K,N)$ is non-branching and that tangent cones from the same sequence of rescalings are H\"older…

We present examples of geometrically finite manifolds with pinched negative curvature, whose geodesic flow has infinite non-ergodic Bowen-Margulis measure and whose Poincar\'e series converges at the critical exponent $\delta_\Gamma$. We…

The goal of the paper is to set the foundations and prove some topological results about moduli spaces of non-smooth metric measure structures with non-negative Ricci curvature in a synthetic sense (via optimal transport) on a compact…

We give sharp bounds in Breuillard, Green and Tao's finitary version of Gromov's theorem on groups with polynomial growth. Precisely, we show that for every non-negative integer d there exists $c=c(d)>0$ such that if $G$ is a group with…

We construct a family of non-parametric (infinite-dimensional) manifolds of finite measures on $R^d$. The manifolds are modelled on a variety of weighted Sobolev spaces, including Hilbert-Sobolev spaces and mixed-norm spaces. Each supports…

We consider a RCD$(-(N-1),N)$ space $(X,d,\mathcal{H}^N)$ with local bounded covering geometry. The first result is related to Gromov's almost flat manifold theorem. Specifically, if for every point $\tilde{p}$ in the universal cover…

In an attempt to develop higher-dimensional quasiconformal mappings on metric measure spaces with curvature conditions, i.e. from Ahlfors to Alexsandrov, we show that a non-collapsed $\mathrm{RCD}(0,n)$ space ($n\geq2$) with Euclidean…

We prove that almost all geodesics on a noncompact locally symmetric space of finite volume grow with a logarithmic speed -- the higher rank generalization of a theorem of D. Sullivan (1982). More generally, under certain conditions on a…

We obtain results about fundamental groups of $RCD^{\ast}(K,N)$ spaces previously known under additional conditions such as smoothness or lower sectional curvature bounds. For fixed $K \in \mathbb{R}$, $N \in [1,\infty )$, $D > 0 $, we show…

Gromov hyperbolic spaces have become an essential concept in geometry, topology and group theory. Here we extend Ancona's potential theory on Gromov hyperbolic manifolds and graphs of bounded geometry to a large class of Schr\"odinger…

The topological type of a non-compact Riemann surface is determined by its ends space and the ends having infinite genus. In this paper for a non-compact Riemann Surface $S_{m,s}$ with $s$ ends and exactly $m$ of them with infinite genus,…
