Abstract
|
|
|
Let M be a compact Riemannian man with positive Ricci curvature normalized by Ric_(M)¡Ãn-1
According to Bishop¢¥s volumn comparison theorem, the volume of M satisfies vol(M)¡Âw_(n), where w_(n) denotes the volumne of S^(n), and the equality holds if and only if M is isometric to S^(n).
Is M topologically similar to S^(n) when vol(M) is close to w_(n)?
In this note we construct a diffeomorphism between M and S^(n) with Lipso??ity constant close to one.
