Abstract: For a given Riemannian manifold $(M^n,g)$ which is near standard sphere $(S^n,g_{round})$ in the Gromov-Hausdorff topology and satisfies $Rcgeqn-1$, it is known by Cheeger-Colding theory that $M$ is diffeomorphic to $S^n$. A diffeomorphism $varphi:Mo{S}^n$ was constructed by Cheeger and Colding using Reifenberg method. In this note, we show that a desired diffeomorphism can be constructed canonically. Let ${f_i}_{i=1}^{n+1}$ be the first $(n+1)$-eigenfunctions of $(M,g)$ and $f=(f_1,f_2,cdots,f_{n+1})$. Then the map $ildef=fracf|f|:Mo{S}^n$ provides a diffeomorphism, and $ildef$ satisfies a uniform bi-H"older estimate. We further show that this bi-H"older estimate is sharp and cannot be improved to a bi-Lipschitz estimate. Our study could be considered as a continuation of the previous works of Colding and Petersen.
