Liouville theorems, volume growth, and volume comparison for Ricci shrinkers

Li Ma

Vol. 296 (2018), No. 2, 357–369
Abstract

We study volume growth, a Liouville theorem for f-harmonic functions, and a volume comparison property of unit balls in complete noncompact gradient Ricci shrinkers and gradient steady Ricci solitons. We also study integral properties of f-harmonic functions and harmonic functions on complete manifolds, such as the Ricci–Einstein solitons.

Keywords
