In this paper we present a major application of the l-function and the reduced volume of Perelman, namely their application to the analysis of the asymptotical limits of kappa solutions of the Ricci flow.

In this article, we prove an $\epsilon$-regularity theorem for Perelman's reduced volume. We show that on a Ricci flow, if Perelman's reduced volume is close to $1$, then the curvature radius at the base point cannot be too small.

This is the first of a series of papers on the long-time behavior of 3 dimensional Ricci flows with surgery. In this paper we first fix a notion of Ricci flows with surgery, which will be used in this and the following three papers. Then we…

Some modification of the old version.In this note we give a proof of a result which is related to Perelman's theorem in Section 10.3 of the paper "The entropy formula for the Ricci flow and its geometric applications".

In this paper, we show that any ancient solution to the Ricci flow with the reduced volume whose asymptotic limit is sufficiently close to that of the Gaussian soliton is isometric to the Euclidean space for all time. This is a…

In this paper we study the Ricci flow on compact four-manifolds with positive isotropic curvature and with no essential incompressible space form. Our purpose is two-fold. One is to give a complete proof of Hamilton's classification theorem…

In this paper, we derive a relative volume comparison estimate along Ricci flow and apply it to studying the Gromov-Hausdorff convergence of K\"ahler-Ricci flow on a minimal manifold. This new estimate generalizes Perelman's no local…

In this paper, we first introduce the weighted forward reduced volume of Ricci flow. The weighted forward reduced volume, which related to expanders of Ricci flow, is well-defined on noncompact manifolds and monotone non-increasing under…

We prove the short-time existence of Ricci flows on complete manifolds with scalar curvature bounded below uniformly, Ricci curvature bounded below by a negative quadratic function, and with almost Euclidean isoperimetric inequality holds…

In his groundbreaking work from 2002, Perelman introduced two fundamental monotonic quantities: the reduced volume and the entropy. While the reduced volume was motivated by the Bishop-Gromov volume comparison applied to a suitably…

We study blow-ups around fixed points at Type I singularities of the Ricci flow on closed manifolds using Perelman's W-functional. First, we give an alternative proof of the result obtained by Naber and Enders-M\"{u}ller-Topping that…

The main purpose of this paper is to present a number of analytic and geometric properties of the $l$-function and the reduced volume of Perelman, including in particular the monotonicity, the upper bound and the rigidities of the reduced…

We study the Ricci flow for initial metrics with positive isotropic curvature (strictly PIC for short). In the first part of this paper, we prove new curvature pinching estimates which ensure that blow-up limits are uniformly PIC in all…
