The higher-dimensional volume comparison conjecture
The higher-dimensional volume comparison conjecture
Let be the sphere with its constant-curvature metric, scalar curvature , Ricci curvature represented by , and volume . For each , let be a complete smooth Riemannian manifold of volume .
Higher-dimensional volume comparison conjecture. There exists a positive such that, whenever
then
The claim generalizes the preceding volume comparison theorem from dimension three to all dimensions ; the source gives no resolution.
