Abstract: A classical aspect of Riemannian geometry is the study of estimates that hold uniformly over some class of metrics. The best known examples are eigenvalue bounds under curvature assumptions. In this paper, we study the family of all left-invariant geometries on $mathrmSU(2)$. We show that left-invariant geometries on $mathrmSU(2)$ are uniformly doubling and give a detailed estimate of the volume of balls that is valid for any of these geometries and any radius. We discuss a number of consequences concerning the spectrum of the associated Laplacians and the corresponding heat kernels.
