Sphere Theorem for Manifolds with Positive Curvature

In this paper, we prove that, for any integer n ≥ 2, there exists an ǫn ≥ 0 so that if M is an n-dimensional complete manifold with sectional curvature KM ≥ 1 and if M has conjugate radius bigger than π 2 and contains a geodesic loop of length 2(π − ǫn), then M is diffeomorphic to the Euclidian unit sphere S.

Comparison Geometry with Integral Curvature Bounds

In this paper we shall generalize a formula of Heintze and Karcher for the volume of normal tubes around geodesics to a situation where one has integral bounds for the sectional curvature. This formula leads to a generalization of Cheeger’s lemma for the length of the shortest closed geodesic and to a generalization of the Grove-Petersen finiteness result to a situation where one has integral c...

Conformal Quaternionic Contact Curvature and the Local Sphere Theorem

Abstract. A curvature-type tensor invariant called quaternionic contact (qc) conformal curvature is defined on a qc manifolds in terms of the curvature and torsion of the Biquard connection. The discovered tensor is similar to the Weyl conformal curvature in Riemannian geometry and to the Chern-Moser invariant in CR geometry. It is shown that a qc manifold is locally qc conformal to the standar...

A Radius Sphere Theorem

The purpose of this paper is to present an optimal sphere theorem for metric spaces analogous to the celebrated Rauch-Berger-Klingenberg Sphere Theorem and the Diameter Sphere Theorem in riemannian geometry. There has lately been considerable interest in studying spaces which are more singular than riemannian manifolds. A natural reason for doing this is because Gromov-Hausdorff limits of riema...

RELATIVE VOLUME COMPARISON WITH INTEGRAL CURVATURE BOUNDS P. Petersen and G. Wei

In this paper we shall generalize the Bishop-Gromov relative volume comparison estimate to a situation where one only has an integral bound for the part of the Ricci curvature which lies below a given number. This will yield several compactness and pinching theorems.
