Contraction conjecture for positively curved Euclidean weighted manifolds
Let satisfy with , and let be the -dimensional Gaussian measure. A map pushes forward onto up to a finite constant if its pushforward measure is proportional to , and it contracts the corresponding metrics when it is -Lipschitz. Contraction conjecture. There exists a map
pushing forward onto up to a finite constant and contracting the corresponding metrics. Motivated by Caffarelli’s contraction theorem and Gaussian comparison results, this conjecture would imply the spectral comparison conjecture through the contraction principle. The source gives no resolution.
