Entropy rigidity of negatively curved manifolds of finite volume

Abstract: We prove the following entropy-rigidity result in finite volume: if X is a negatively curved manifold with curvature −b 2 ≤ K X ≤ −1, then Ent top (X) = n − 1 if and only if X is hyperbolic. In particular, if X has the same length spectrum of a hyperbolic manifold X 0 , the it is isometric to X 0 (we also give a direct, entropy-free proof of this fact). We compare with the classical theorems holding in the compact case, pointing out the main difficulties to extend them to finite volume manifolds.

“…Finally, in order to prove Theorem 1.1, we need to recall a characterization of constant curvature spaces as those pinched, negatively curved spaces whose lattices realize the least possible value for the entropy. The minimal entropy problem has a long history and has been declined in many di↵erent ways so far; see [23], [4], [10] for the analogue of the following statement in the compact case, and [17] for a proof in the finite-volume case:…”

“…satisfying ( ) = (n 1)a. In the compact case, this result can be deduced from Knieper's work on spherical means (following the proof of Theorem 5.2, [24]), or from Bonk-Kleiner [4] (for convex-cocompact groups); on the other hand, see [17] for a complete proof in the case of non-uniform lattices and the analysis of the new di culties arising in the non-compact case.…”

“…Some basic results about families of Riemannian metric and metric-measured spaces with uniformily bounded entropy, such as lemmas à-la-Margulis, finiteness and compactness results etc., are the object of [8]; see also [18] for an abelian version of the Margulis' lemma. Other local topological rigidity results under entropy bounds have recently appeared in [51] and [19].…”
