For Riemannian manifolds with a measure $(M,g, e^{-f} dvol_g)$ we prove mean curvature and volume comparison results when the $\infty$-Bakry-Emery Ricci tensor is bounded from below and $f$ is bounded or $\partial_r f$ is bounded from…

The aim of this note is to study the measure-valued Ricci tensor on smooth metric measure space with boundary, which is a generalization of Bakry-Emery's modified Ricci tensor on weighted Riemannian manifold. As an application, we offer a…

In this paper we prove a new Myers' type diameter estimate on a complete connected Reimannian manifold which admits a bounded vector field such that the Bakry-\'Emery Ricci tensor has a positive lower bound. The result is sharper than…

We study geometry of complete Riemannian manifolds endowed with a weighted measure, where the weight function is of quadratic growth. Assuming the associated Bakry-Emery curvature is bounded from below, we derive a new Laplacian comparison…

For Riemannian manifolds with a smooth measure $(M, g, e^{-f}dv_{g})$, we prove a generalized Myers compactness theorem when Bakry--Emery Ricci tensor is bounded from below and $f$ is bounded.

We characterize lower bounds for the Bakry-Emery Ricci tensor of nonsymmetric diffusion operators by convexity of entropy on the $L^2$-Wasserstein space, and define a curvature-dimension condition for general metric measure spaces together…

We consider the problem of preserving weighted Riemannian metrics of positive Bakry-\'Emery Ricci curvature along surgery. We establish two theorems of this type: One for connected sums, and one for surgeries along higher-dimensional…

In this paper we prove mean curvature comparisons and volume comparisons on a smooth metric measure space when the integral radial Bakry-\'Emery Ricci tensor and the potential function or its gradient are bounded. As applications, we prove…

We prove mean curvature and volume comparison estimates on smooth metric measure spaces when their integral Bakry-\'{E}mery Ricci tensor bounds, extending Wei-Wylie's comparison results to the integral case. We also apply comparison results…

In this note we extend a recent result of S. Brendle [3] to Riemannian manifolds with densities and nonnegative Bakry-\'Emery Ricci curvature.

In this paper we study some splitting properties on complete noncompact manifolds with smooth measures when $\infty$-dimensional Bakry-\'Emery Ricci curvature is bounded from below by some negative constant and spectrum of the weighted…

In this paper, we will present some characterizations for the upper bound of the Bakry-Emery curvature on a Riemannian manifold by using functional inequalities on path space. Moreover, some characterizations for general lower and upper…

We prove comparison theorems for the sub-Riemannian distortion coefficients appearing in interpolation inequalities. These results, which are equivalent to a sub-Laplacian comparison theorem for the sub-Riemannian distance, are obtained by…

In this paper, we study stable weighted minimal hypersurfaces in manifolds with nonnegative Bakry-Emery Ricci curvature. We will give some geometric and topological applications. In particular, we give some partial classification of…

The aim of the present paper is to bridge the gap between the Bakry-\'{E}mery and the Lott-Sturm-Villani approaches to provide synthetic and abstract notions of lower Ricci curvature bounds. We start from a strongly local Dirichlet form…

In a Riemannian manifold with a smooth positive function that weights the associated Hausdorff measures we study stable sets, i.e., second order minima of the weighted perimeter under variations preserving the weighted volume. By assuming…

In this paper, inspired by [4, 9], we prove a Sobolev inequality on manifolds with density and asymptotically nonnegative Bakry-\'Emery Ricci curvature.

We discuss various characterizations of synthetic upper Ricci bounds for metric measure spaces in terms of heat flow, entropy and optimal transport. In particular, we present a characterization in terms of semiconcavity of the entropy along…

We provide new type of decay estimate for scalar curvatures of steady gradient Ricci solitons. We also give certain upper bound for the diameter of a Riemannian manifold whose $\infty$-Bakry--Emery Ricci tensor is bounded by some positive…

The Bakry-Emery generalized Ricci tensor arises in scalar-tensor gravitation theories in the conformal gauge known as the Jordan frame. Recent results from the mathematics literature show that standard singularity and splitting theorems…
