Key Result

Theorem 1.1

Let $(M^n,g(t))$, $t\in [0,T]$, be a Ricci flow on a compact manifold, $u$ be a positive solution to the conjugate heat equation coupled with the Ricci flow on $M\times [0,T]$ with $0 < u \leq A$. Then we have and, in particular, where $C$ depends on $n$, the upper bounds of $|Rm|$, $|\nabla Ric|$, and $|\nabla^2 R|$ on $M\times [0,T]$.
