Bounds on the volume entropy and simplicial volume in Ricci curvature $L^p$ bounded from below
Erwann AUBRY 1
(2009)

Let $(M,g)$ be a compact manifold with Ricci curvature almost bounded from below and $\pi:\bar{M}\to M$ be a normal, Riemannian cover. We show that, for any nonnegative function $f$ on $M$, the means of $f\o\pi$ on the geodesic balls of $\bar{M}$ are comparable to the mean of $f$ on $M$. Combined with logarithmic volume estimates, this implies bounds on several topological invariants (volume entropy, simplicial volume, first Betti number and presentations of the fundamental group) in Ricci curvature $L^p$-bounded from below.
