Bishop comparison conjecture for graphs with nonnegative Bakry–Émery curvature
Bishop comparison conjecture for graphs with nonnegative Bakry–Émery curvature
Let . A graph has vertex degrees for all and satisfies . Bishop comparison conjecture. There are constants , depending only on , such that for every and ,
Thus bounded-degree graphs satisfying should have polynomial volume growth. This is presented as an analogue of Bishop's comparison theorem; the source notes that abelian Cayley graphs provide examples, while the general assertion remains open.
