A Cheng-Yau type estimate for positive biharmonic functions

We establish a Cheng-Yau type estimate for positive biharmonic functions on complete Riemannian manifolds with Ricci curvature satisfies $Ric_g \ge -(n-1)K g$. If $u$ is a positive biharmonic function in $B_{2R}(p)$, then $$ -\frac{\Delta_g u}{u} +\frac{1}{8n}\frac{|\nabla u|_g^2}{u^2} \le C_n\left(R^{-2}+K\right) \qua...
