Remark on an inequality for closed hypersurfaces in complete manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature (Q6173850): Difference between revisions

The author considers complete noncompact Riemannian manifolds \((M, g)\) with nonnegative Ricci curvature and Euclidean volume growth, of dimension \(n\geq 3\). For every bounded open subset \(\Omega\subset M\) with smooth boundary, he gives a simple proof of the inequality \[ \int_{\partial\Omega}\left\vert\frac{H}{n-1} \right\vert^{n-1}d\sigma\geq \mathrm{AVR}(g)\vert\mathbb{S}^{n-1}\vert, \] where \(H\) is the mean curvature of \(\partial\Omega\) and \(\mathrm{AVR}(g)\) is the asymptotic volume ratio of \((M, g)\). Moreover, equality holds true if and only if \((M\setminus\Omega, g)\) is isometric to a truncated cone over \(\partial\Omega\). This result was originally proved by \textit{V. Agostiniani} et al. [Invent. Math. 222, No. 3, 1033--1101 (2020; Zbl 1467.53062)].
