Splitting theorems on complete manifolds with Bakry-Émery curvature
arXiv:1112.6302
Abstract
In this paper we study some splitting properties on complete noncompact manifolds with smooth measures when -dimensional Bakry-Émery Ricci curvature is bounded from below by some negative constant and spectrum of the weighted Laplacian has a positive lower bound. These results extend the cases of Ricci curvature and -dimensional Bakry-Émery Ricci curvature.
