The long-time behavior of the Ricci tensor under the Ricci flow (Q2260752): Difference between revisions

Summary: We show that, given an immortal solution to the Ricci flow on a closed manifold with uniformly bounded curvature and diameter, the Ricci tensor goes to zero as \(t \to \infty\). We also show that if there exists an immortal solution on a closed 3-dimensional manifold such that the product of the curvature and the square of the diameter is uniformly bounded, then this solution must be of type III.
