Nonsingular Ricci flow on a noncompact manifold in dimension three
Abstract
Description
We consider the Ricci flow $\frac{\partial}{\partial t}g=-2Ric$ on the 3-dimensional complete noncompact manifold $(M,g(0))$ with non-negative curvature operator, i.e., $Rm\geq 0, |Rm(p)|\to 0, ~as ~d(o,p)\to 0.$ We prove that the Ricci flow on such a manifold is nonsingular in any finite time.
