Collapsing geometry with Ricci curvature bounded below and Ricci flow smoothing (Q2217983): Difference between revisions

The authors state the following result. If a closed Kähler manifold with a vanishing first Chern class, i.e., a Calabi-Yau manifold, is such that its sectional curvature is upper bounded (by one) and its volume collapses, then it admits a Ricci-flat Kähler metric (Theorem 5.1, 1)). This result is associated to a conjecture stated by \textit{J. Cheeger} et al. [J. Am. Math. Soc. 5, No. 2, 327--372 (1992; Zbl 0758.53022)]. The article is endowed with a review of collapsing Riemannian manifolds with Ricci curvature bounded below.
