Abstract: We study the Ricci flow starting at an SU(2) cohomogeneity-1 metric g0 on mathbbR4 with monotone warping coefficients and whose restriction to any hypersphere is a Berger metric. If g0 has bounded Hopf-fiber, curvature controlled by the size of the orbits and opens faster than a paraboloid in the directions orthogonal to the Hopf-fiber, then the flow converges to the Taub-NUT metric gmathsfTNUT in the Cheeger-Gromov sense in infinite time. We also classify the long-time behaviour when g0 is asymptotically flat. In order to identify infinite-time singularity models we obtain a uniqueness result for gmathsfTNUT.
