Bakry-Émery curvature-dimension condition and Riemannian Ricci curvature bounds
The aim of the present paper is to bridge the gap between the Bakry-Émery and the Lott-Sturm-Villani approaches to provide synthetic and abstract notions of lower Ricci curvature bounds. We start from a strongly local Dirichlet form E admitting a Carré du champ Γ in a Polish measure space (X,m) and a canonical distance dE that induces the original topology of X. We first characterize the distin...
متن کاملRicci Curvature Bounds and Einstein Metrics on Compact Manifolds
dL(Mo,M1) = inf[llogdil/l + Ilogdil/-II], f where I: Mo -+ MI is a homeomorphism and dil I is the dilatation of I given by dill = SUPXt#2 dist(f(x l ), l(x2))/ dist(x1 ,x2). If Mo and MI are not homeomorphic, define dL(Mo,M1) = +00. Gromov [20] proves the remarkable result that the space of compact Riemannian manifolds L(A,t5 ,D) of sectional curvature IKI :::; A, injectivity radius i M 2: t5 >...

متن کاملRiemannian Ricci curvature lower bounds in metric measure spaces with σ-finite measure
In prior work [4] of the first two authors with Savaré, a new Riemannian notion of lower bound for Ricci curvature in the class of metric measure spaces (X, d,m) was introduced, and the corresponding class of spaces denoted by RCD(K,∞). This notion relates the CD(K,N) theory of Sturm and Lott-Villani, in the case N = ∞, to the Bakry-Emery approach. In [4] the RCD(K,∞) property is defined in thr...
متن کاملMetric measure spaces with Riemannian Ricci curvature bounded from below
In this paper we introduce a synthetic notion of Riemannian Ricci bounds from below for metric measure spaces (X, d,m) which is stable under measured Gromov-Hausdorff convergence and rules out Finsler geometries. It can be given in terms of an enforcement of the Lott, Sturm and Villani geodesic convexity condition for the entropy coupled with the linearity of the heat flow. Besides stability, i...
