abstract

We show a sharp and rigid spectral generalization of the classical Bishop--Gromov volume comparison theorem: if a closed Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ of dimension $n\geq3$ satisfies $$ \lambda_1\left(-\frac{n-1}{n-2}\Delta+\mathrm{Ric}\right)\geq n-1, $$ then $\operatorname{vol}(M)\leq\operatorname{vol}(\mathbb S^{n})$, and $\pi_1(M)$ is finite. The constant $\frac{n-1}{n-2}$ cannot be improved, and if $\mathrm{vol}(M)=\mathrm{vol}(\mathbb S^n)$ holds, then $M\cong \mathbb S^{n}$. A sharp generalization of the Bonnet--Myers theorem is also shown under the same spectral condition. The proofs involve the use of a new unequally weighted isoperimetric problem, and unequally warped $\mu$-bubbles. As an application, in dimensions $3\leq n\leq 5$, we infer sharp results on the isoperimetric structure at infinity of complete manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature and uniformly positive spectral biRicci curvature. Furthermore, the main result of this paper is applied in Mazet's recent solution of the stable Bernstein problem in $\mathbb R^6$.

  1. The space of metrics with positive generalized conformal Laplacian

    math.DG 2026-07 accept novelty 7.0 of 10

    For closed n-manifolds, R^γ(M) is homotopy-equivalent to PSC metrics when γ ≤ 4(n−1)/(n−2), and contractible (hence nonempty) when γ exceeds that threshold.

  2. Some rigidity theorems for spectral curvature bounds

    math.DG 2026-04 accept novelty 6.5 of 10

    Spectral lower bounds on scalar/Ricci curvature imply the same rigidity, band-width, and splitting conclusions as classical pointwise bounds, via warped µ-bubbles.

    math.DG 2026-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    On closed n-manifolds (n=4,5,6) with gamma-triRic >= n-3 and a nonzero cup product in H^1, the (n-2)-systole is bounded by (n-3)^((n-2)/2)|S^(n-2)| * (inf gamma-triRic)^(-(n-2)/2), with equality only for covers of S^(...

    math.DG 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    For n=3,4,5 and δ above thresholds δ0(n), complete two-sided δ-stable minimal hypersurfaces in R^{n+1} have Euclidean volume growth, and for δ above δ1(n) they are hyperplanes.

    Survey of isoperimetric problems under lower Ricci curvature bounds, presenting sharp concavity inequalities, recent existence results, and open questions.
