In this note, we extend the rigidity of Cheng-Yau gradient estimate in \cite{HXY} to surfaces with lower Ricci curvature bound. Motivated by these sharp Cheng-Yau gradient estimates, pointwise Cheng-Yau gradient estimates for higher…

In this note, we prove Cheng-Yau type local gradient estimate for harmonic functions on Alexandrov spaces with Ricci curvature bounded below. We adopt a refined version of Moser's iteration which is based on Zhang-Zhu's Bochner type…

A gradient estimate is a crucial tool used to control the rate of change of a function on a manifold, paving the way for deeper analysis of geometric properties. A celebrated result of Cheng and Yau gives gradient bounds on manifolds with…

Along the line of the Yang Conjecture, we give a new estimate on the lower bound of the first non-zero eigenvalue of a closed Riemannian manifold with negative lower bound of Ricci curvature in terms of the in-diameter and the lower bound…

We investigate the Ollivier-Ricci curvature and its modification introduced by Lin, Lu, and Yau on locally finite graphs. The main contribution of this work is a lower bound on the minimum vertex degree of a graph ensuring non-negative…

In this note we give a heat kernel lower bound in term of integral Ricci curvature, extending Cheeger-Yau's estimate.

In this note, we obtain the rigidity of the sharp Cheng-Yau gradient estimate for positive harmonic functions on surfaces with nonegative Gaussian curvature, the rigidity of the sharp Li-Yau gradient estimate for positive solutions to heat…

In this very short note we prove a lower bound for the scalar curvature of certain steady gradient Ricci solitons.

We prove a sharp Zhong-Yang type eigenvalue lower bound for closed Riemannian manifolds with control on integral Ricci curvature.

We derive the complete and optimal Cheng--Yau gradient estimates and universal bounds for subcritical semilinear elliptic equations on Riemannian manifolds with (Bakry-\'{E}mery) Ricci curvature bounded below. This answers a fundamental…

In this paper, we prove the local gradient estimate for harmonic functions on complete, noncompact Finsler measure spaces under the condition that the weighted Ricci curvature has a lower bound. As applications, we obtain Liouville type…

We give a new estimate on the lower bound for the first Dirichlet eigenvalue for a compact manifold with positive Ricci curvature in terms of the in-diameter and the lower bound of the Ricci curvature. The result improves the previous…

We give new estimates on the lower bounds for the first closed or Neumann eigenvalue for a compact manifold with positive Ricci curvature in terms of the diameter and the lower bound of Ricci curvature. The results improve the previous…

We give a new estimate on the lower bound of the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of a compact Riemannian manifold with negative lower bound of Ricci curvature and provide a solution for a conjecture of H. C. Yang.

We derive a gradient estimate for positive functions, in particular for positive solutions to the heat equation, on finite or locally finite graphs. Unlike the well known Li-Yau estimate, which is based on the maximum principle, our…

This article shows that if the negative part of Ricci curvature lies in the Kato class, the heat kernel satisfies a Li-Yau type estimate. Additionally, using the resulting heat kernel bound, we show that the obtained heat kernel estimate…

In this paper, motivated by the work of Qi S. Zhang in [28], we derive Li-Yau gradient bounds for positive solutions of the f-heat equation on closed manifolds with Bakry-Emery Ricci curvature bounded below.

In this note, we obtain a sharp volume estimate for complete gradient Ricci solitons with scalar curvature bounded below by a positive constant. Using Chen-Yokota's argument we obtain a local lower bound estimate of the scalar curvature for…

A version of the singular Yamabe problem in bounded domains yields complete conformal metrics with negative constant scalar curvatures. In this paper, we study whether these metrics have negative Ricci curvatures. Affirmatively, we prove…

We obtain a local Sobolev constant estimate for integral Ricci curvature, which enables us to extend several important tools such as the maximal principle, the gradient estimate, the heat kernel estimate and the $L^2$ Hessian estimate to…
