Finiteness and vanishing results on weighted Poincare inequality of complete manifolds
arXiv:0711.0924
Abstract
We study manifolds satisfying a weighed Poincare inequality, which was first introduced by Li-Wang. We generalized one of their results by relaxing the Ricci curvature bound condition only being satisfied outside a compact set and established a finitely many ends result. We proved a vanishing result for harmonic 1-form provided that the weight function is of sub-quadratic growth of the distance function.
