Lower Bounds for the Relative Volume of Poincare-Einstein Manifolds

TL;DR

This paper establishes lower bounds for the volume of Poincaré-Einstein manifolds using fractional Yamabe constants of their conformal infinity, linking boundary conformal geometry to bulk volume estimates.

Contribution

It introduces new volume bounds for Poincaré-Einstein manifolds based on fractional Yamabe invariants of the boundary, extending previous geometric inequalities.

Findings

Fractional Yamabe constants provide lower volume bounds.

Volume ratios are bounded by conformal invariants.

Results apply to manifolds with nonnegative Yamabe type boundary.

Abstract

In this paper, we show that for a Poincar\'{e}-Einstein manifold $(X^{n+1},g_+)$ with conformal infinity $(M,[\hat{g}])$ of nonnegative Yamabe type, the fractional Yamabe constants of the boundary provide lower bounds for the relative volume. More explicitly, for any $\gamma\in (0,1)$, $$ \left(\frac{Y_{2\gamma} (M,[\hat{g}])}{Y_{2\gamma} (\mathbb{S}^n , [g_{\mathbb{S}}])}\right)^{\frac{n}{2\gamma}} \leq \frac{V(\Gamma_t(p),g_+)}{V(\Gamma_t(0),g_{\mathbb{H}})} \leq \frac{V( B_t(p),g_+)}{V( B_t(0), g_{\mathbb{H}})} \leq 1,\quad 0<t<\infty, $$ where $B_t(p)$, $\Gamma_t(p)$ are the the geodesic ball and geodesic sphere of radius $t$ in $(X,g_+)$ with center at $p\in X^{n+1}$; and $B_t(0)$, $\Gamma_t(0)$ are the the geodesic ball and geodesic sphere in $\mathbb{H}^{n+1}$ with center at $0\in\mathbb{H}^{n+1}$.
