We prove precompactness in an orbifold Cheeger-Gromov sense of complete gradient Ricci shrinkers with a lower bound on their entropy and a local integral Riemann bound. We do not need any pointwise curvature assumptions, volume or diameter…
Haslhofer and M\"uller proved a compactness Theorem for four-dimensional shrinking gradient Ricci solitons, with the only assumption being that the entropy is uniformly bounded from below. However, the limit in their result could possibly…
A closed four dimensional manifold cannot possess a non-flat Ricci soliton metric with arbitrarily small $L^2$-norm of the curvature. In this paper, we localize this fact in the case of shrinking Ricci solitons by proving an…
In [Cheeger-Tian 2005], Cheeger-Tian proved an $\epsilon$-regularity theorem for $4$-dimensional Einstein manifolds without volume assumption. They conjectured that similar results should hold for critical metrics with constant scalar…

We prove Cheeger-Gromov convergence for a subsequence of a given sequence of manifolds-with-boundary of bounded geometry. The method of the proof is to reduce, via height functions, the problem to the setting of Hamilton's compactnes…
In this paper, we introduce a new notion for lower bounds of Ricci curvature on Alexandrov spaces, and extend Cheeger-Gromoll splitting theorem and Cheng's maximal diameter theorem to Alexandrov spaces under this Ricci curvature condition.
In this article, we investigate the geometry of $4$-dimensional compact gradient Ricci solitons. We prove that, under an upper bound condition on the range of the potential function, a $4$-dimensional compact gradient Ricci soliton must…

We show that sequences of compact gradient Ricci solitons converge to complete orbifold gradient solitons, assuming constraints on volume, the $L^{n/2}$-norm of curvature, and the auxiliary constant $C_1$. The strongest results are in…
In this paper, we study the structure of the pointed-Gromov-Hausdorff limits of sequences of Ricci shrinkers. We define a regular-singular decomposition following the work of Cheeger-Colding for manifolds with a uniform Ricci curvature…
