Résumé
Abstract

Nous proposons une définition d’espace « non-collapsed » avec courbure de Ricci minorée et nous généralisons aux espaces RCD le théorème de convergence du volume de Colding et l’estimation de l’écart de dimension de Cheeger-Colding. En particulier, ceci prouve la stabilité des espaces RCD « non-collapsed » par rapport à la convergence de Gromov-Hausdorff « non-collapsed ».

We propose a definition of non-collapsed space with Ricci curvature bounded from below and we prove the versions of Colding’s volume convergence theorem and of Cheeger-Colding dimension gap estimate for $RCD$ spaces. In particular this establishes the stability of non-collapsed spaces under non-collapsed Gromov-Hausdorff convergence.
