In this work, we use the Ricci flow approach to study the gap phenomenon of Riemannian manifolds with non-negative curvature and sub-critical scaling invariant curvature decay. The first main result is a quantitative Ricci flow existence…

Let $(M^n, g)$ be a compact $n$-dim ($n\geq 2$) manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature, and if $n\geq 3$ we assume that $(M^n, g)\times \mathbb{R}$ has nonnegative isotropic curvature. The lower bound of the Ricci flow's existence time…

The main purpose of this paper is to show that a normalized non-steady gradient Ricci soliton (M,g,f,{\lambda}) of dimension n is trivial if and only if its scalar curvature S satisfies the equality S={\lambda}(f+(n/2)).

Consider the standard action of $SO(2)\times SO(3)$ on $\mathbb{R}^5=\mathbb{R}^2\oplus \mathbb{R}^3$. We establish the existence of a uniform constant $\mathcal{C}>0$ so that any $SO(2)\times SO(3)$-invariant Ricci soliton on…

We consider smooth complete solutions to Ricci flow with bounded curvature on manifolds without boundary in dimension three. Assuming an open ball at time zero of radius one has curvature bounded from below by -1, then we prove estimates…

On any compact Riemannian manifold $(M, g)$ of dimension $n$, the $L^2$-normalized eigenfunctions ${\phi_{\lambda}}$ satisfy $||\phi_{\lambda}||_{\infty} \leq C \lambda^{\frac{n-1}{2}}$ where $-\Delta \phi_{\lambda} = \lambda^2…

This paper concerns conditions related to the first finite singularity time of a Ricci flow solution on a closed manifold. In particular, we provide a systematic approach to the mean value inequality method, suggested by N. Le and F. He. We…

We study the four dimensional Ricci flow with the help of local invariants. If $(M^4, g(t))$ is a solution to the Ricci flow and $x \in M^4$, we can associate to the point $x$ a one-parameter family of curves, which lie in the product of…

We show that a simply-connected closed four-dimensional Ricci flow whose Ricci curvature is uniformly bounded below and whose volume does not approach zero must converge to a $C^{0}$ orbifold at any finite-time singularity, so has an…
