On Gromov-Hausdorff stability in a boundary rigidity problem

Abstract

Let $M$ be a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. We show that $M$ is Gromov-Hausdorff close to a convex Euclidean region $D$ of the same dimension if the boundary distance function of $M$ is $C^1$-close to that of $D$. More generally, we prove the same result under the assumptions that the boundary distance function of $M$ is $C^0$-close to that of $D$, the volumes of $M$ and $D$ are almost equal, and volumes of metric balls in $M$ have a certain lower bound in terms of radius.
