We investigate the topological regularity and stability of noncollapsed Ricci limit spaces $(M_i^n,g_i,p_i)\to (X^n,d)$. We confirm a conjecture proposed by Colding and Naber in dimension $n=4$, showing that the cross-sections of tangent…
For any integers $m\geqslant n\geqslant 3$, we construct a Ricci limit space $X_{m,n}$ such that for a fixed point, some tangent cones are $\mathbb{R}^m$ and some are $\mathbb{R}^n$. This is an improvement of Menguy's example. Moreover, we…
We show that if $X$ is a limit of $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifolds with Ricci curvature bounded below and $\gamma$ is a limit geodesic in $X$ then along the interior of $\gamma$ same scale measure metric tangent cones $T_{\gamma(t)}X$…
It is shown by Colding and Minicozzi the uniqueness of the tangent cone at infinity of Ricci-flat manifolds with Euclidean volume growth which has at least one tangent cone at infinity with a smooth cross section. In this article we raise…
Consider a limit space $(M_\alpha,g_\alpha,p_\alpha)\stackrel{GH}{\rightarrow} (Y,d_Y,p)$, where the $M_\alpha^n$ have a lower Ricci curvature bound and are volume noncollapsed. The tangent cones of $Y$ at a point $p\in Y$ are known to be…
In this paper we define an orientation of a measured Gromov-Hausdorff limit space of Riemannian manifolds with uniform Ricci bounds from below. This is the first observation of orientability for metric measure spaces. Our orientability has…
We refine the regularity of noncollapsed limits of 5-dimensional manifolds with bounded Ricci curvature. In particular, for noncollapsed limits of Einstein 5-manifolds, we prove that (1) tangent cones are unique of the form…
We consider the problem of preserving positive Ricci curvature along connected sums. In this context, based on earlier work by Perelman, Burdick introduced the notion of core metrics and showed that the connected sum of manifolds with core…
We construct metrics of positive Ricci curvature on some vector bundles over tori (or more generally, over nilmanifolds). This gives rise to the first examples of manifolds with positive Ricci curvature which are homotopy equivalent but not…
We give the first examples of collapsing Ricci limit spaces on which the Hausdorff dimension of the singular set exceeds that of the regular set; moreover, the Hausdorff dimension of these spaces can be non-integers. This answers a question…
In this paper, we explore the limit structure of a sequence of Riemannian manifolds with Bakry-\'Emery Ricci curvature bounded below in the Gromov-Hausdorff topology. By extending the techniques established by Cheeger-Cloding for Riemannian…
We show that any closed biquotient with finite fundamental group admits metrics of positive Ricci curvature. Also, let M be a closed manifold on which a compact Lie group G acts with cohomogeneity one, and let L be a closed subgroup of G…
A. Derdzinki [D] gave examples of Riemannian metrics with harmonic curvature and non parallel Ricci tensor on some compact manifolds $(M,g]$ . We examine their existence as well as their number wich naturally depends on the geometry of the…
We study the structure of Gromov-Hausdorff limits of sequences of Riemannian manifolds $\{(M_\alpha^n,g_\alpha)\}_{\alpha \in A}$ whose Ricci curvature satisfies a uniform Kato bound. We first obtain Mosco convergence of the Dirichlet…
We present a new curvature condition which is preserved by the Ricci flow in higher dimensions. For initial metrics satisfying this condition, we establish a higher dimensional version of Hamilton's neck-like curvature pinching estimate.…
We construct and classify, in the case of two complex dimensions, the possible tangent cones at points of limit spaces of non-collapsed sequences of K\"ahler-Einstein metrics with cone singularities.
We study non-collapsed Gromov-Hausdorff limits of K\"ahler manifolds with Ricci curvature bounded below. Our main result is that each tangent cone is homeomorphic to a normal affine variety. This extends a result of Donaldson-Sun, who…
We show that for any Ricci-flat manifold with Euclidean volume growth the tangent cone at infinity is unique if one tangent cone has a smooth cross-section. Similarly, for any noncollapsing limit of Einstein manifolds with uniformly bounded…
In this short note we provide several conjectures on the regularity of measured Gromov-Hausdorff limit spaces of Riemannian manifolds with Ricci curvature bounded below, from the point of view of the synthetic treatment of lower bounds on…
A homemorphism between domains in $\mathbb R^n$, $n\ge 2$ is quasiconformal, with its intricate analytic and geometric consequences, if the (pointwise) linear dilatation -- a purely metric quantity -- is uniformly bounded. Gehring proved…
