On the long-time behavior of immortal Ricci flows

Differential Geometry 2019-08-16 v1

Abstract

For an immortal Ricci flow on an mm-dimensional (m3)(m\ge 3) closed manifold, we show the following convergence results: (1) if the curvature and diameter are uniformly bounded, then any unbounded sequence of time slices sub-converges to a Riemannian orbifold; (2) if the flow is type-III with diameter growth controlled by t12t^{\frac{1}{2}}, then any blowdown limit is an mm-dimensional negative Einstein manifold, provided that Feldman-Ilmanen-Ni's μ+\boldsymbol{\mu}_+-functional satisfies limttμ+(t)=0\lim_{t\to \infty} t\boldsymbol{\mu}_+'(t)=0.
