Rigidity of 3D spherical caps via $\mu$-bubbles

Yuhao Hu, Peng Liu and Yuguang Shi

Vol. 323 (2023), No. 1, 89–114
DOI: 10.2140/pjm.2023.323.89
Abstract

By using Gromov’s μ-bubble technique, we show that the 3-dimensional spherical caps are rigid under perturbations that do not reduce the metric, the scalar curvature, and the mean curvature along its boundary. Several generalizations of this result will be discussed.
