abstract

In arXiv:2207.08617 [math.DG] Brendle-Hirsch-Johne proved that $T^m\times S^{n-m}$ does not admit metrics with positive $m$-intermediate curvature when $n\leq 7$. Chu-Kwong-Lee showed in arXiv:2208.12240 [math.DG] a corresponding rigidity statement when $n\leq 5$. In this paper, we show the sharpness of the dimension constraints by giving concrete counterexamples in $n\geq 7$ and extending the rigidity result to $n=6$. Concerning uniformly positive intermediate curvature, we show that simply-connected manifolds with dimension $\leq 5$ and bi-Ricci curvature $\geq 1$ have finite Urysohn 1-width. Counterexamples are constructed in dimension $\geq 6$.

  1. Spectral comparison results for the $N$-Bakry-Emery Ricci tensor

    math.DG 2024-12 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The authors establish diameter and global weighted volume comparison theorems for manifolds with a positive spectral lower bound on the N-Bakry-Emery Ricci tensor.

  2. A sharp spectral splitting theorem

    math.DG 2024-12 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    If a complete noncompact n-manifold with at least two ends satisfies lambda1(-gamma Delta + Ric) >= 0 for some gamma < 4/(n-1), then it splits isometrically as R x N with compact N and Ric_N >= 0; the constant is sharp.

  3. Complete two-sided $\delta$-stable minimal hypersurfaces in $\mathbf R^{n+1}$

    math.DG 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    For n=3,4,5 and δ above thresholds δ0(n), complete two-sided δ-stable minimal hypersurfaces in R^{n+1} have Euclidean volume growth, and for δ above δ1(n) they are hyperplanes.
