Abstract: By solving the Cauchy problem for the Hodge-Laplace heat equation for $d$-closed, positive $(1,1)$-forms, we prove an optimal gap theorem for K"ahler manifolds with nonnegative bisectional curvature which asserts that the manifold is flat if the average of the scalar curvature over balls of radius $r$ centered at any fixed point $o$ is a function of $o(r^{-2})$. Furthermore via a relative monotonicity estimate we obtain a stronger statement, namely a `positive mass' type result, asserting that if $(M,g)$ is not flat, then $limin{f}_{roinfty}frac{r}^2{V}_o(r)in{t}_{B_o(r)}mathcalS(y),dmu(y)>0$ for any $oinM$.
