摘要:

Recently, in [49], a new definition for lower Ricci curvature bounds on Alexandrov spaces was introduced by the authors. In this article, we  extend our research to summarize the  geometric and analytic results under this Ricci condition. In particular, two new results, the rigidity result of Bishop-Gromov volume    comparison and Lipschitz continuity of heat kernel, are obtained.

关键词: Alexandrov spaces, Ricci curvature, volume comparison, heat kernel
