A remark on odd dimensional normalized Ricci flow

Abstract: Let

(M^{n}, g_{0})

(

n

odd) be a compact Riemannian manifold with

l a m b d a (g_{0}) > 0

, where

l a m b d a (g_{0})

is the first eigenvalue of the operator

- 4 D e l t a_{g_{0}} + R (g_{0})

, and

R (g_{0})

is the scalar curvature of

(M^{n}, g_{0})

. Assume the maximal solution

g (t)

to the normalized Ricci flow with initial data

(M^{n}, g_{0})

satisfies

| R (g (t)) | l e q C

and

i n t_{M} | R m (g (t)) |^{n / 2} d m u_{t} l e q C

uniformly for a constant

C

. Then we show that the solution sub-converges to a shrinking Ricci soliton. Moreover,when

n = 3

, the condition

i n t_{M} | R m (g (t)) |^{n / 2} d m u_{t} l e q C

can be removed.
