چکیده
In this announcement, we describe some results of an ongoing investigation of function theory on spaces with a lower Ricci curvature bound. In particular, we announce results on harmonic functions of polynomial growth on open manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature and Euclidean volume growth.

Sharp Holder continuity of tangent cones for spaces with a lower Ricci curvature bound and applications
We prove a new kind of estimate that holds on any manifold with a lower Ricci bound. It relates the geometry of two small balls with the same radius, potentially far apart, but centered in the interior of a common minimizing geodesic. It reveals new, previously unknown, properties that all generalized spaces with a lower Ricci curvature bound must have and it has a number of applications. This ...
متن کاملRicci curvature , entropy and optimal transport – Summer School in Grenoble 2009 – ‘ Optimal Transportation : Theory and Applications
These notes are the planned contents of my lectures. Some parts could be only briefly explained or skipped due to the lack of time or possible overlap with other lectures. The aim of these lectures is to review the recent development on the relation between optimal transport theory and Riemannian geometry. Ricci curvature is the key ingredient. Optimal transport theory provides a good character...
متن کاملExact and asymptotic results on coarse Ricci curvature of graphs
Ricci curvature was proposed by Ollivier in a general framework of metric measure spaces, and it has been studied extensively in the context of graphs in recent years. In this paper we obtain the exact formulas for Ollivier’s Ricci-curvature for bipartite graphs and for the graphs with girth at least 5. These are the first formulas for Ricci-curvature that hold for a wide class of graphs, and e...
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 کاملOn Low Dimensional Ricci Limit Spaces
We call a Gromov-Hausdorff limit of complete Riemannian manifolds with a lower bound of Ricci curvature a Ricci limit space. In this paper, we prove that any Ricci limit space has integral Hausdorff dimension provided that its Hausdorff dimension is not greater than two. We also classify one-dimensional Ricci limit spaces.
