Ancient solutions to the Ricci flow with isotropic curvature conditions

Abstract: We show that every n-dimensional, κ-noncollapsed, noncompact, complete ancient solution to the Ricci flow with uniformly PIC for n = 4 or n ≥ 12 has weakly PIC 2 and bounded curvature. Combining this with the results in [12], we prove that any such solution is isometric to either a family of shrinking cylinders (or a quotient thereof) or the Bryant soliton. Also, we classify all complex 2-dimensional, κ-noncollapsed, complete ancient solutions to the Kähler Ricci flow with weakly PIC.

“…Theorem 1.1 extends our earlier result regarding the classification of κ-solutions on Kähler surfaces [23,Theorem 1.3]. In [23], a key observation is that any complete, complex 2-dimensional ancient solution to the Kähler Ricci flow with nonnegative bisectional curvature automatically has nonnegative curvature operator [23,Lemma 4.6]. Here, we obtain a similar curvature improvement (see Theorem 3.3), which states that any complete ancient solution to the Kähler Ricci flow with nonnegative bisectional curvature has weakly PIC 2 .…”
