Ricci curvature for metric-measure spaces via optimal transport

From MaRDI portal
Publication:2389152




Abstract: We define a notion of a measured length space X having nonnegative N-Ricci curvature, for N finite, or having infinity-Ricci curvature bounded below by K, for K a real number. The definitions are in terms of the displacement convexity of certain functions on the associated Wasserstein space P_2(X) of probability measures. We show that these properties are preserved under measured Gromov-Hausdorff limits. We give geometric and analytic consequences.
