Proves that nonnegative Ricci curvature manifolds with sublinear diameter growth in dimension n<12 have almost abelian fundamental groups via a bound n >= 4s(s-1)+k+1 on nilpotent subgroups of rank k and step s.
Slow relative volume growth on complete manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature implies almost abelian or finite fundamental groups.
