After whom is this named? Mikhail Gromov is clear, but who was/is Bishop? Also, what's the Levy-Gromov inequality? Lupo 14:44, 1 December 2005 (UTC)

Ambiguity in notation for Ricci curvature?
[edit]The notation of the article is ambiguous with respect to the "Ricci curvature". As far as I understand it, the article is referring to the Ricci cuvature function and not the scalar curvature. In the article on Ricci curvature is used for the Ricci curvature function. This makes it more clear that it is a function of direction and not a scalar. Penguian (talk) 07:09, 2 September 2012 (UTC)
