Abstract

In this paper we consider the class A\mathcal{A} of those solutions u(x,t)u(x,t) to the conjugate heat equation ddtu=Δu+Ru\frac{d}{dt}u = -\Delta u + Ru on compact K\"ahler manifolds MM with c1>0c_1 > 0 (where g(t)g(t) changes by the unnormalized K\"ahler Ricci flow, blowing up at T<T < \infty), which satisfy Perelman's differential Harnack inequality on [0,T)[0,T). We show A\mathcal{A} is nonempty. If \ric(g(t))CTt|\ric(g(t))| \le \frac{C}{T-t}, which is alaways true if we have type I singularity, we prove the solution u(x,t)u(x,t) satisfies the elliptic type Harnack inequlity, with the constants that are uniform in time. If the flow g(t)g(t) has a type I singularity at TT, then A\mathcal{A} has excatly one element.
