Bounds of Scalar curvature, S-curvature and distortion on -Einstein Finsler manifolds

arXiv:2501.01970

Abstract

This manuscript investigates the curvature and topological properties of certain -Einstein Finsler metrics on Finsler metric measure spaces. By imposing symmetry conditions, we construct a series of special metrics and analyze their equivalence on special manifolds. Provided a Ricci curvature bound, we establish a linear growth lower bound estimate for the S-curvature and the distortion, revealing the interplay between curvature and measure on -Einstein Finsler manifolds. Furthermore, by introducing scalar curvature and imposing a linear growth lower bound condition, we derive upper and lower bounds for the distortion, S-curvature, and the scalar curvature itself on asymmetric essential gradient Ricci solitons with certain non-Riemannian curvature constraints. These results yield direct topological finiteness conclusions for some forward-complete -Einstein Finsler manifolds. Our work partially addresses Gromov's conjecture of scalar curvature in the context of Finsler metric measure spaces and provides a foundation for further research in geometric analysis within general Finsler geometry.
