Abstract
In this article, we extend the compactness theorems proved by Sprouse and Hwang–Lee to a weighted manifold under the assumption that the weighted Ricci curvature is bounded below in terms of its weight function. With the help of the \(\varepsilon \)-range, we treat the case that the effective dimension is at most 1 in addition to the case that the effective dimension is at least the dimension of the manifold. To show these theorems, we extend the segment inequality of Cheeger–Colding to a weighted manifold.
