Abstract

We show that for any solution to the K\"ahler-Ricci flow with positive bisectional curvature on a compact K\"ahler manifold MnM^n, the bisectional curvature has a uniform positive lower bound. As a consequence, the solution converges exponentially fast to an K\"ahler-Einstein metric with positive bisectional curvature as t tends to the infinity, provided we assume the Futaki-invariant of MnM^n is zero. This improves a result of D. Phong, J. Song, J. Sturm and B. Weinkove in which they assumed the stronger condition that Mabuchi K-energy is bounded from below.
