[edit]

This page needs an expert to either clarify the information given, expand on it, transfer technical usage of vocabulary into more understandable vocabulary and also give references where possible/needed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Littledanno (talkcontribs)

This is not really an issue of jargon or technical vocabulary. The subject of the article is a fairly specialized research-level subject. The article needs to assume some basic background knowledge of geometry and mathematics more broadly. The topic is fairly devoid of content for someone who doesn't know what Ricci curvature is, what a compact space is, etc. Sławomir Biały (talk) 12:29, 6 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

generalisation of Myers?

[edit]

Do you have a source for the claim that this is a generalisation of Myers theorem? Note that the lower bound for Ricci could be negative in Gromov's theorem. Tkuvho (talk) 12:03, 4 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
