Uniqueness of Ricci flow with scaling invariant estimates (2503.20292v1)
Published 26 Mar 2025 in math.DG and math.AP
Abstract: In this work, we prove uniqueness for complete non-compact Ricci flow with scaling invariant curvature bound. This generalizes the earlier work of Chen-Zhu, Kotschwar and covers most of the example of Ricci flows with unbounded curvature. In dimension three, we use it to show that complete Ricci flow starting from uniformly non-collapsed, non-negatively curved manifold is unique, extending the strong uniqueness Theorem of Chen. This is based on solving Ricci-harmonic map heat flow in unbounded curvature background.
