Higher-order Ricci estimates along immortal Kähler-Ricci flows

Wenrui Kong

Abstract

We study higher-order curvature estimates along Kähler-Ricci flows on compact Kähler manifolds of intermediate Kodaira dimension. We prove that away from singular fibers, the Ricci curvature is uniformly bounded in $C^1$, the Laplacian of the Ricci curvature in $C^0$, and the scalar curvature in $C^2$. We identify a geometric obstruction to higher-order curvature bounds, whose non-vanishing causes a specific third-order derivative of the Ricci curvature to blow up at rate $e^{t/2}$. Uniform $C^k$ bounds for every $k$ hold for the Ricci curvature in the isotrivial case, and for the full Riemann curvature in the torus-fibered case.

Key Result

Theorem 1.1

Let $(X,\omega_0)$ be a compact Kähler manifold with $K_X$ semiample and intermediate Kodaira dimension $0 < m < \dim X$, and let $\omega^\bullet(t)$ solve eq_krf. Given any $K \Subset X \setminus S$, there exists a constant $C_{K}$ such that
