We show that there are topological obstructions for a noncompact manifold to admit a Riemannian metric with quadratic curvature decay and a volume growth which is slower than that of Euclidean space of the same dimension.

After works by Michael and Simon [10], Hoffman and Spruck [9], and White [14], the celebrated Sobolev inequality could be extended to submanifolds in a huge class of Riemannian manifolds. The universal constant obtained depends only on the…

We prove the following result: Let $(M,g_0)$ be a compact manifold of dimension $n\geq 12$ with positive isotropic curvature. Then $M$ is diffeomorphic to a spherical space form, or the total space of an orbifiber bundle over $\mathbb{S}^1$…

In this work, we study the rigidity problem for the logarithmic Sobolev inequality on a complete metric measure space $(M^n,g,f)$ with Bakry-\'Emery Ricci curvature satisfying $Ric_f\geq \frac{a}{2}g$, for some $a>0$. We prove that if…
