The curvature-dimension condition is a generalization of the Bochner inequality to weighted Riemannian manifolds and general metric measure spaces. It is now known to be equivalent to evolution variational inequalities for the heat…

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…

In this paper, we prove the concavity of the Renyi entropy power for nonlinear diffusion equation (NLDE) associated with the Laplacian and the Witten Laplacian on compact Riemannian manifolds with non-negative Ricci curvature or…

In this paper, we prove the $W$-entropy formula and the monotonicity and rigidity theorem of the $W$-entropy for the heat flow on RCD$(K, N)$ and RCD$(K, n, N)$ spaces $(X, d, \mu)$, where $K\in \mathbb{R}$, $n\in \mathbb{N}$ is the…

In this paper we investigate Lott-Sturm-Villani's synthetic lower Ricci curvature bound on Riemannian manifolds with boundary. We prove several measure rigidity results for some important functional and geometric inequalities, which…

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…

The comparison theory for the Riccati equation satisfied by the shape operator of parallel hypersurfaces is generalized to semi-Riemannian manifolds of arbitrary index, using one-sided bounds on the Riemann tensor which in the Riemannian…

For a complete connected Riemannian manifold $M$ let $V\in C^2(M)$ be such that $\mu(d x)={\rm e}^{-V(x)} \mbox{vol}(d x)$ is a probability measure on $M$. Taking $\mu$ as reference measure, we derive inequalities for probability measures…

In this paper, we investigate the geometry of Einstein-type equation on a Riemannian manifold, unifying various particular geometric structures recently studied in the literature, such as critical point equation and vacuum static equation.…

In this paper, we study two notions of rigidity, one of conformal submersions and the other of quasi Einstein manifolds, with an attempt to relate the two notions. Note that a smooth submersion between Riemannian manifolds is called…

We prove local Poincar\'e inequalities under various curvature-dimension conditions which are stable under the measured Gromov-Hausdorff convergence. The first class of spaces we consider is that of weak CD(K,N) spaces as defined by Lott…

We present a diffeomorphism-invariant formulation of differential entropy for Riemannian spaces, providing a fine-grained, coordinate-independent notion of quantum information for continuous variables in physical space. To this end, we…

Any oriented $4$-dimensional Einstein metric with semi-definite sectional curvature satisfies the pointwise inequality \[ \frac{|s|}{\sqrt{6}}\geq|W^+|+|W^-|, \] where $s$, $W^+$ and $W^-$ are respectively the scalar curvature, the…

We introduce a curvature-dimension condition for autonomous Lagrangians on weighted manifolds, which depends on the Euler-Lagrange dynamics on a single energy level. By generalizing Klartag's needle decomposition technique to the Lagrangian…

We introduce the Langevin deformation for the R\'enyi entropy on the $L^2$-Wasserstein space over $\mathbb{R}^n$ or a Riemannian manifold, which interpolates between the porous medium equation and the Benamou-Brenier geodesic flow on the…

By means of a space-time Wasserstein control, we show the monotonicity of the W-entropy functional in time along heat flows on possibly singular metric measure spaces with non-negative Ricci curvature and a finite upper bound of dimension…

We first establish a family of sharp Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg type inequalities on the Euclidean spaces and then extend them to the setting of Cartan-Hadamard manifolds with the same best constant. The quantitative version of these…

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 was proved by Juillet…

We study a class of design problems in solid mechanics, leading to a variation on the classical question of equi-dimensional embeddability of Riemannian manifolds. In this general new context, we derive a necessary and sufficient existence…

We consider continuous-time (not necessarily finite) Markov chains on discrete spaces and identify a curvature-dimension inequality, the condition $CD_\Upsilon(\kappa,\infty)$, which serves as a natural analogue of the classical…
