Comparison geometry for the Bakry-Emery Ricci tensor

G Wei, W Wylie - Journal of differential geometry, 2009 - projecteuclid.org
For Riemannian manifolds with a measure (M, g, e− f dvolg) we prove mean curvature and
volume comparison results when the∞-Bakry-Emery Ricci tensor is bounded from below …

Compactness of the space of embedded minimal surfaces with free boundary in three-manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature and convex boundary

A Fraser, MM Li - Journal of Differential Geometry, 2014 - projecteuclid.org
We prove a lower bound for the first Steklov eigenvalue of embedded minimal hypersurfaces
with free boundary in a compact $ n $-dimensional Riemannian manifold which has …

Weak Laplacian bounds and minimal boundaries in non-smooth spaces with Ricci curvature lower bounds

A Mondino, D Semola - arXiv preprint arXiv:2107.12344, 2021 - arxiv.org
The goal of the paper is four-fold. In the setting of non-smooth spaces with Ricci curvature
lower bounds (more precisely RCD (K, N) metric measure spaces):-we develop an intrinsic …

Sectional and intermediate Ricci curvature lower bounds via optimal transport

C Ketterer, A Mondino - Advances in Mathematics, 2018 - Elsevier
The goal of the paper is to give an optimal transport characterization of sectional curvature
lower (and upper) bounds for smooth n-dimensional Riemannian manifolds. More generally …

Bi-halfspace and convex hull theorems for translating solitons

F Chini, NM Møller - International Mathematics Research Notices, 2021 - academic.oup.com
While it is well known from examples that no interesting “halfspace theorem” holds for
properly immersed-dimensional self-translating mean curvature flow solitons in Euclidean …

M Domínguez-Vázquez, D González-Álvaro… - Mathematische …, 2023 - Springer
Positive k th-intermediate Ricci curvature on a Riemannian n-manifold, to be denoted by Ric
k> 0, is a condition that interpolates between positive sectional and positive Ricci curvature …

Rigidity of mean convex subsets in non-negatively curved RCD spaces and stability of mean curvature bounds

C Ketterer - Journal of Topology and Analysis, 2023 - World Scientific
We prove splitting theorems for mean convex open subsets in Riemannian curvature-
dimension (RCD) spaces that extend results by Kasue et al. for Riemannian manifolds with …

The Frankel property for self-shrinkers from the viewpoint of elliptic PDEs

D Impera, S Pigola, M Rimoldi - Journal für die reine und …, 2021 - degruyter.com
We show that two properly embedded self-shrinkers in Euclidean space that are sufficiently
separated at infinity must intersect at a finite point. The proof is based on a localized version …

Rigidity of low index solutions on via a Frankel theorem for the Allen-Cahn equation

F Hiesmayr - arXiv preprint arXiv:2007.08701, 2020 - arxiv.org
We prove a rigidity theorem in the style of Urbano for the Allen-Cahn equation on the three-
sphere: the critical points with Morse index five are symmetric functions that vanish on a …

J Choe, A Fraser - Commentarii Mathematici Helvetici, 2018 - ems.press
Let M be a compact Riemannian manifold of nonnegative Ricci curvature and† a compact
embedded 2-sided minimal hypersurface in M. It is proved that there is a dichotomy: If† does …
