Weighted volume monotonicity and isoperimetric comparison under a lower Ricci curvature bound
We establish a weighted extension of the Bishop-Gromov volume comparison theorem for complete Riemannian manifolds with Ricci curvature bounded below. Given a point $p$ and positive radial weights $f$ and $h$, we consider the weighted volume of a geodesic ball and a corresponding model weighted volume in the simply con...
