Abstract

The Riemannian manifolds with sectional curvature $ \geq 1$ and volume slightly less (in terms of the dimension and the upper bound of the sectional curvature) than $ V$, the half of the volume of the standard sphere, are classified. The behavior of the critical points of the distance function on manifolds whose volume differ from $ V$ in terms of constructible constants in terms of the dimension is discussed.
