The curvature dimension condition CD(K,N), pioneered by Sturm and Lott--Villani, is a synthetic notion of having curvature bounded below and dimension bounded above, in the non-smooth setting. This condition implies a suitable…

We obtain an improved Bochner inequality based on the curvature-dimension condition ${\rm RCD}^*(K,N)$ and propose a definition of $N$-dimensional Ricci tensor on metric measure spaces.

In the setting of essentially non-branching metric measure spaces, we prove the equivalence between the curvature dimension condition CD(K,N), in the sense of Lott--Sturm--Villani, and a newly introduced notion that we call strong…

We prove that for non-branching metric measure spaces the local curvature condition CDloc(K,N) implies the global version of MCP(K,N). The curvature condition CD(K,N) introduced by the second author and also studied by Lott & Villani is the…

We discuss $(K,N)$-convexity and gradient flows for $(K,N)$-convex functionals on metric spaces, in the case of real $K$ and negative $N$. In this generality, it is necessary to consider functionals unbounded from below and/or above,…

For metric measure spaces verifying the reduced curvature-dimension condition $CD^*(K,N)$ we prove a series of sharp functional inequalities under the additional assumption of essentially non-branching. Examples of spaces entering this…

In this note we show that in metric measure spaces satisfying the reduced curvature-dimension condition CD*(K,N) we always have geodesics in the Wasserstein space of probability measures that satisfy the critical convexity inequality of…

Motivated by a classical comparison result of J. C. F. Sturm we introduce a curvature-dimension condition CD(k,N) for general metric measure spaces and variable lower curvature bound k. In the case of non-zero constant lower curvature our…

We introduce and study the conical curvature-dimension condition, $CCD(K,N)$, for graphs. We show that $CCD(K,N)$ provides necessary and sufficient conditions for the underlying graph to satisfy a sharp global Poincar\'e inequality which in…

The Lott-Sturm-Villani curvature-dimension condition $\mathsf{CD}(K,N)$ provides a synthetic notion for a metric measure space to have curvature bounded from below by $K$ and dimension bounded from above by $N$. It has been recently proved…

We study the problem of whether the curvature-dimension condition with negative values of the generalized dimension parameter is stable under a suitable notion of convergence. To this purpose, first of all we introduce an appropriate…

In this note we continue the analysis of metric measure space with variable ricci curvature bounds. First, we study $(\kappa,N)$-convex functions on metric spaces where $\kappa$ is a lower semi-continuous function, and gradient flow curves…

We compare two approaches to Ricci curvature on non-smooth spaces, in the case of the discrete hypercube $\{0,1\}^N$. While the coarse Ricci curvature of the first author readily yields a positive value for curvature, the displacement…

We prove the Riemannian curvature-dimension condition $\mathsf{RCD}(KN,N+1)$ for an $N$-warped product $B\times_f^N F$ over a one-dimensional base space $B$ with a Lipschitz function $f: B\rightarrow \mathbb R_{\geq 0}$, provided (1) $f$ is…

We study the isoperimetric, functional and concentration properties of $n$-dimensional weighted Riemannian manifolds satisfying the Curvature-Dimension condition, when the generalized dimension $N$ is negative, and more generally, is in the…

We extend the Margulis Lemma for manifolds with lower Ricci curvature bounds to the $\text{RCD}(K,N)$ setting. As one of our main tools, we obtain improved regularity estimates for Regular Langrangian flows on these spaces.

We study some equivalent properties of the curvature-dimension conditions $CD(n,K)$ inequality on infinite, but locally finite graph. These equivalences are gradient estimate, Poincar\'e type inequalities and reverse Poincar\'e…

We prove that a compact stratied space satises the Riemannian curvature-dimension condition RCD(K, N) if and only if its Ricci tensor is bounded below by K $\in$ R on the regular set, the cone angle along the stratum of codimension two is…

The goal of this paper is twofold: we study metric measure spaces $(X,d,m)$ with variable lower bounds for the Ricci curvature and we study pathwise coupling of Brownian motions. Given any lower semicontinuous function $k:X\to \mathbb R$ we…

We generalize Gr\"unbaum's classical inequality in convex geometry to curved spaces with nonnegative Ricci curvature, precisely, to $\mathrm{RCD}(0,N)$-spaces with $N \in (1,\infty)$ as well as weighted Riemannian manifolds of…
