The K\"ahler-Ricci flow on K\"ahler manifolds with 2 traceless bisectional curvature operator

It is observed that for complex surfaces, the positivity of the Ricci curvature is preserved by the K\"ahler-Ricci flow, under the additional assumption that the sum of the two lowest eigenvalues of the traceless curvature operator is non-negative.

We show that the K\"ahler-Ricci flow on a manifold with positive first Chern class converges to a K\"ahler-Einstein metric assuming positive bisectional curvature and certain stability conditions.

In this paper, we study any K\"ahler manifold where the positive orthogonal bisectional curvature is preserved on the K\"ahler Ricci flow. Naturally, we always assume that the first Chern class $C_1$ is positive. In particular, we prove that any irreducible K\"ahler manifold with such property must be biholomorphic to $\mathbb{C}\mathbb{P}^n. $ This can be viewed as a generalization of Siu-Yau\cite{Siuy80}, Morri's solution \cite{Mori79} of the Frankel conjecture. According t...

We show that for any solution to the K\"ahler-Ricci flow with positive bisectional curvature on a compact K\"ahler manifold $M^n$, the bisectional curvature has a uniform positive lower bound. As a consequence, the solution converges exponentially fast to an K\"ahler-Einstein metric with positive bisectional curvature as t tends to the infinity, provided we assume the Futaki-invariant of $M^n$ is zero. This improves a result of D. Phong, J. Song, J. Sturm and B. Weinkove in w...

In this paper, we announce the following results: Let M be a Kaehler-Einstein manifold with positive scalar curvature. If the initial metric has nonnegative bisectional curvature and positive at least at one point, then the K\"ahler-Ricci flow converges exponentially fast to a Kaehler-Einstein metric with constant bisectional curvature.

We study the asymptotic behavior of the K\"ahler-Ricci flow on K\"ahler manifolds of nonnegative holomorphic bisectional curvature. Using these results we prove that a complete noncompact K\"ahler manifold with nonnegative bounded holomorphic bisectional curvature and maximal volume growth is biholomorphic to complex Euclidean space $\C^n$. We also show that the volume growth condition can be removed if we assume $(M, g)$ has average quadratic scalar curvature decay (see Theo...

In our previous paper math.DG/0010008, we develop some new techniques in attacking the convergence problems for the K\"ahler Ricci flow. The one of main ideas is to find a set of new functionals on curvature tensors such that the Ricci flow is the gradient like flow of these functionals. We successfully find such functionals in case of Kaehler manifolds. On K\"ahler-Einstein manifold with positive scalar curvature, if the initial metric has positive bisectional curvature, we ...

In recent work (Pure Appl. Anal. 2 (2020), 397-426), the first named author and J. Zhang found a connection between the regularity theory of optimal transport and the curvature of K\"ahler manifolds. In particular, we showed that the MTW tensor for a cost function $c(x,y)=\Psi(x-y)$ can be understood as the anti-bisectional curvature of an associated K\"ahler metric defined on a tube domain. Here, the anti-bisectional curvature is defined as $R(\mathcal{X}, \overline{ \mathca...

We announce a new proof of the uniform estimate on the curvature of solutions to the Ricci flow on a compact K\"ahler manifold $M^n$ with positive bisectional curvature. In contrast to the recent work of X. Chen and G. Tian, our proof of the uniform estimate does not rely on the exsitence of K\"ahler-Einstein metrics on $M^n$, but instead on the first author's Harnack inequality for the K\"ahler-Ricc flow, and a very recent local injectivity radius estimate of Perelman for th...

We produce complete bounded curvature solutions to K\"ahler-Ricci flow with existence time estimates, assuming only that the initial data is a smooth \K metric uniformly equivalent to another complete bounded curvature \K metric. We obtain related flow results for non-smooth as well as degenerate initial conditions. We also obtain a stability result for complex space forms under the flow.
