Pre-compactness of globally hyperbolic spacetimes with Ricci lower bounds
Pre-compactness of globally hyperbolic spacetimes with Ricci lower bounds
Let be an -dimensional Riemannian manifold, and let be a Lorentzian metric such that is a globally hyperbolic spacetime. Write for the stated lower bound on the Ricci tensor, and let denote the convergence used for Lorentzian spaces. Pre-compactness conjecture. The class
is pre-compact with respect to -convergence. This conjecture proposes extending the preceding pre-compactness theorem from smooth generalized cones to globally hyperbolic spacetimes under a full Ricci-tensor lower bound. Its resolution and the precise role of the auxiliary Riemannian metric are not supplied here.
