TLDR
In this article, the universal covering of a manifold with positive constant curvatures was shown to be O(mathbf R^2\times (-c,c)$ with a doubly warped product metric.
Abstract
In this paper, we give an affirmative answer to Gromov's conjecture ([3, Conjecture E]) by establishing an optimal Lipschitz lower bound for a class of smooth functions on orientable open $3$-manifolds with uniformly positive sectional curvatures. For rigidity we show that the universal covering of the given manifold must be $\mathbf R^2\times (-c,c)$ with some doubly warped product metric if the optimal bound is attained. This gives a characterization for doubly warped product metrics with positive constant curvature. As a corollary, we also obtain a focal radius estimate for immersed toruses in $3$-spheres with positive sectional curvatures.

Rigidity of 3D spherical caps via $\mu$-bubbles

TL;DR: In this article , Gromov's µ-bubble technique was used to show that the 3D spherical caps are rigid under perturbations that do not reduce the metric, the scalar curvature, and the mean curvature along its boundary.
