Inspired by their work, we give a quantitative proof of the above theorem and show that $C(n)\\leq n^{n^{20n}} $. Our main tools are quantitative Cheeger-Colding's almost splitting theory, and the squeeze lemma for covering groups between two Riemannian manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-05-31T00:59:48.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "fundamental group", "local estimate", "nonnegative ricci curvature", "dim riemannian manifold", "main tools" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
