Instability of the fundamental group for non-collapsed Ricci-limits

We construct two sequences of closed $4$-dimensional manifolds with non-negative Ricci curvature, diameter bounded from above by $1$, and volume bounded from below by $v>0$, with different fundamental groups but with the same Gromov-Hausdorff limit. This provides a negative answer to the question posed in [J. Pan. Ricci Curvature and Fundamental Groups of Effective Regular Sets. Journal of Mathematical Study, 58(1):3--21, 2025].

Abstract

We construct two sequences of closed $4$-dimensional manifolds with non-negative Ricci curvature, diameter bounded from above by $1$, and volume bounded from below by $v>0$, with different fundamental groups but with the same Gromov-Hausdorff limit. This provides a negative answer to the question posed in [J. Pan. Ricci Curvature and Fundamental Groups of Effective Regular Sets. Journal of Mathematical Study, 58(1):3--21, 2025].
