Abstract

In this paper, we are concerned with the regularity of noncollapsed Riemannian manifolds (M n ;g) with bounded Ricci curvature, as well as their Gromov-Hausdor limit spaces ( M n ;dj) dGH ! (X;d), where dj denotes the Riemannian distance. Our main result is a solution to the codimension 4 conjecture, namely thatX is smooth away from a closed subset of codimension 4. We combine this result with the ideas of quantitative stratication to prove a priori L q estimates on the full curvaturejRmj for all q v > 0, and diam(M) D contains at most a nite number of dieomorphism classes. A local version is used to show that noncollapsed 4-manifolds with bounded Ricci curvature have a priori L 2 Riemannian curvature estimates.
