On Finsler metric measure manifolds with integral weighted Ricci curvature bounds

Abstract

In this paper, we study deeply geometric and topological properties of Finsler metric measure manifolds with the integral weighted Ricci curvature bounds. We first establish Laplacian comparison theorem, Bishop-Gromov type volume comparison theorem and relative volume comparison theorem on such Finsler manifolds. Then we obtain a volume growth estimate and Gromov pre-compactness under the integral weighted Ricci curvature bounds. Furthermore, we prove the local Dirichlet isoperimetric constant estimate on Finsler metric measure manifolds with integral weighted Ricci curvature bounds. As applications of the Dirichlet isoperimetric constant estimates, we get first Dirichlet eigenvalue estimate and a gradient estimate for harmonic functions.
