Uniqueness of bubble limits at a singular Einstein point

At least 2 years old · documented by

Let (Xj,gj,pj)(X_j,g_j,p_j) be a sequence of Einstein metrics converging with non-collapsing volume to a singular Einstein metric (X∞,g∞,p∞)(X_\infty,g_\infty,p_\infty), and let Vol⁡(p∞)\operatorname{Vol}(p_\infty) denote the volume density at p∞p_\infty. A bubble limit is a pointed geometric limit obtained by rescaling around p∞p_\infty. Cone rigidity conjecture. The set of bubble limits whose volume density equals Vol⁡(p∞)\operatorname{Vol}(p_\infty) consists of a single point. Uniqueness of tangent cones is known when curvature has only quadratic blow-up at p∞p_\infty, but the general uniqueness assertion remains an open folklore question.
