Ancient solutions to the Ricci flow with isotropic curvature conditions
Abstract
Ancient solutions to the Ricci flow with uniformly PIC in specific dimensions are either shrinking cylinders or the Bryant soliton, while complex 2-dimensional ancient solutions to the Kähler Ricci flow with weakly PIC are also classified.
We show that every n-dimensional, kappa-noncollapsed, noncompact, complete ancient solution to the Ricci flow with uniformly PIC for n=4 or nge 12 has weakly PIC_2 and bounded curvature. Combining this with earlier results, we prove that any such solution is isometric to either a family of shrinking cylinders (or a quotient thereof) or the Bryant soliton. Also, we classify all complex 2-dimensional, kappa-noncollapsed, complete ancient solutions to the K\"ahler Ricci flow with weakly PIC.
