abstract

We show that a uniformly Euclidean metric with isolated singularity on $M^n = T^n \# M_0$, where $4\leq n\leq 7$ or $n\geq 4$, $M_0$ spin, and nonnegative scalar curvature on the smooth part is Ricci flat and extends smoothly over the singularity. This confirms Schoen's Conjecture in these cases. The key to the proof is to show that the space has nonnegative synthetic Ricci curvature, i.e., an $RCD(0, n)$ space. Our result also holds when the singular set consists of a finite union of submanifolds (of possibly different dimensions) intersecting transversally under additional assumption on the co-dimension and the location of the singular set.
