The Ricci Curvature of a Weighted Tree

O. V. Rubleva

Lomonosov Moscow State University

Abstract: An expression for the coarse Ricci curvature of a weighted tree with a random walk on the vertex set is obtained. As a corollary, it is shown that the structure of a binary tree can be reconstructed up to isomorphism from the matrix of pairwise Ricci curvatures of its vertices.

Keywords: weighted tree, Ricci curvature, coarse Ricci curvature, transportation distance, random walk on a metric space.
