Abstract

This paper provides a proof that an n-dimensional complete open Riemannian manifold M with sectional curvature KM [ges ] −1 is diffeomorphic to a Euclidean n-space Rn if the volume growth of geodesic balls in M is close to that of the balls in an n-dimensional hyperbolic space Hn(−1) of sectional curvature −1.
