Ancient Ricci Flow Solutions on Bundles

Differential Geometry 2016-06-06 v1

Abstract

We generalize the circle bundle examples of ancient solutions of the Ricci flow discovered by Bakas, Kong, and Ni to a class of principal torus bundles over an arbitrary finite product of Fano K\"ahler-Einstein manifolds studied by Wang and Ziller in the context of Einstein geometry. As a result, continuous families of κ\kappa-collapsed and κ\kappa-noncollapsed ancient solutions of type I are obtained on circle bundles for all odd dimensions 7\geq 7. In dimension 77 such examples moreover exist on pairs of homeomorphic but not diffeomorphic manifolds. Continuous families of κ\kappa-collapsed ancient solutions of type I are also obtained on torus bundles for all dimensions 8\geq 8.
