Backward Ricci flow on locally homogeneous 3-manifolds (Q842341)

Recognizing the importance of the behavior of various geometric flows in the setting of homogeneous 3-manifolds, in particular, works focused on the forward behavior of the Ricci flow, the authors in this paper study the backward Ricci flow on locally homogeneous 3-manifolds. The authors arrive at the long time behavior and interesting convergent results with sub-Riemannian geometry as this (limit) geometry. This work can be regarded as a fine contribution in the direction of Ricci flows.
