We prove that for any complete three-manifold with a lower Ricci curvature bound and a lower bound on the volume of balls of radius one, a solution to the Ricci flow exists for short time. Actually our proof also yields a (non-canonical)…

We study the convergence of the K\"ahler-Ricci flow on a compact K\"ahler manifold $(M,J)$ with positive first Chern class $c_1(M;J)$ and vanished Futaki invariant on $\pi c_1(M;J)$. As the application we establish a criterion for the…
