Abstract
We establish a refined singularity estimate for nonnegative n-superharmonic functions. For complete noncompact locally conformally flat manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature, we analytically characterize the volume growth, verify Yau's conjecture on the Cohn-Vossen inequality, and prove a sharp gap theorem that removes all auxiliary assumptions from earlier works.
