Defining Pointwise Lower Scalar Curvature Bounds for ⁰ Metrics with Regularization by Ricci Flow

We survey some recent work using Ricci flow to create a class of local definitions of weak lower scalar curvature bounds that is well defined for ⁰ metrics. We discuss several properties of these definitions and explain some applications of this approach to questions regarding uniform convergence of...

description We survey some recent work using Ricci flow to create a class of local definitions of weak lower scalar curvature bounds that is well defined for ⁰ metrics. We discuss several properties of these definitions and explain some applications of this approach to questions regarding uniform convergence of metrics with scalar curvature bounded below. Finally, we consider the relationship between this approach and some other generalized notions of lower scalar curvature bounds.

This survey is dedicated to Misha Gromov on the occasion of his 75th birthday. I would like to thank him for his interest in my work. I would also like to thank my advisor, Richard Bamler, for his guidance during the writing process. Finally, I would like to thank the referees for numerous helpful comments on a previous draft of this paper. This material is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship Program under Grant No. DGE 1752814.
