Heat Kernel Comparison on Alexandrov Spaces with Curvature Bounded Below
In this paper the comparison result for the heat kernel on Riemannian manifolds with lower Ricci curvature bound by Cheeger and Yau [CY81] is extended to locally compact path metric spaces (X, d) with lower curvature bound in the sense of Alexandrov and with sufficiently fast asymptotic decay of the volume of small geodesic balls. As corollaries we recover Varadhan’s short time asymptotic formu...
متن کاملMarkov type of Alexandrov spaces of nonnegative curvature ∗ †
We prove that Alexandrov spaces X of nonnegative curvature have Markov type 2 in the sense of Ball. As a corollary, any Lipschitz continuous map from a subset of X into a 2-uniformly convex Banach space is extended as a Lipschitz continuous map on the entire space X.
متن کاملBarycenters in Alexandrov spaces of curvature bounded below
We investigate barycenters of probability measures on proper Alexandrov spaces of curvature bounded below, and show that they enjoy several properties relevant to or different from those in metric spaces of curvature bounded above. We prove the reverse variance inequality, and show that the push forward of a measure to the tangent cone at its barycenter has the flat support.
متن کاملLorentz and Semi-riemannian Spaces with Alexandrov Curvature Bounds
A semi-Riemannian manifold is said to satisfy R ≥ K (or R ≤ K) if spacelike sectional curvatures are ≥ K and timelike ones are ≤ K (or the reverse). Such spaces are abundant, as warped product constructions show; they include, in particular, big bang Robertson-Walker spaces. By stability, there are many non-warped product examples. We prove the equivalence of this type of curvature bound with l...
متن کاملExtrinsic Curvature of Semiconvex Subspaces in Alexandrov Geometry
In Alexandrov spaces of curvature bounded either above (CBA) or below (CBB), we obtain extrinsic curvature bounds on subspaces associated with semiconcave functions. For CBA spaces, we obtain new intrinsic curvature bounds on subspaces. For CBB spaces whose boundary is extrinsically curved, we strengthen Perelman’s concavity theorem for distance from the boundary, deriving corollaries on sharp ...
