Finite-Time Singularities of the Kähler--Ricci Flow on Fano Bundles II

The analytic minimal model program proposed in \cite{SongTianSingularities, JST} seeks to describe the birational transitions and fibre collapsing of the Kähler--Ricci flow through the geometry of its singularities. A fundamental conjecture of \cite{JST} predicts Type I bounds for the scalar curvature and diameter of every fibre contratced by the limiting cohomological class at the finite singular time. This paper is a continuation of \cite{Splitting} that establishes the Type I conjecture for collapsing solutions on Fano bundles with arbitrary smooth Fano fibres. If the fibre admits a smooth Kähler-Einstein metric, the Type I bound holds for the full curvature tensor.

Finite-Time Singularities of the Kähler--Ricci Flow on Fano Bundles

We study collapsing finite-time singularities of the unnormalized Kähler--Ricci flow on Fano bundles arising in the analytic minimal model program. For a Fano bundle $X^n\rightarrow Y^m$, we prove a maximal splitting theorem by the Kähler-Ricci flow that every tangent space at a fixed limiting point splits globally as \((\C^m,g_{\rm E},J_0)\times(Z',d',J')\). If the fibre has complex dimension one, we prove a global Type-I bound for the full curvature tensor and show that the ambient and intrinsic diameters of every fibre are uniformly comparable to \(\sqrt{T-t}\). Furthermore, every tangent flow at any fixed limiting point is the round shrinking cylinder \(\C^m\times\PP^1\).

CscK metrics near the canonical class

Let $X$ be a Kähler manifold with semi-ample canonical bundle $K_X$. It is proved by Jian-Shi-Song that for any Kähler class $γ$, there exists $δ>0$ such that for all $t\in (0, δ)$ there exists a unique cscK metric $g_t$ in $K_X+ t γ$. In this paper, we prove that $\{ (X, g_t) \}_{ t\in (0, δ)} $ have uniformly bounded Kähler potentials, volume forms and diameters. As a consequence, these metric spaces are pre-compact in the Gromov-Hausdorff sense.

Finite time singularities of the Kähler-Ricci flow

We establish the scalar curvature and distance bounds, extending Perelman's work on the Fano Kähler-Ricci flow to general finite time solutions of the Kähler-Ricci flow. These bounds are achieved by our Li-Yau type and Harnack estimates for weighted Ricci potential functions of the Kähler-Ricci flow. We further prove that the Type I blow-ups of the finite time solution always sub-converge in Gromov-Hausdorff sense to an ancient solution on a family of analytic normal varieties with suitable choices of base points. As a consequence, the Type I diameter bound is proved for almost every fibre of collapsing solutions of the Kähler-Ricci flow on a Fano fibre bundle. We also apply our estimates to show that every solution of the Kähler-Ricci flow with Calabi symmetry must develop Type I singularities, including both cases of high codimensional contractions and fibre collapsing.

Geometric regularity of blow-up limits of the Kähler-Ricci flow

We establish geometric regularity for Type I blow-up limits of the Kähler-Ricci flow based at any sequence of Ricci vertices. As a consequence, the limiting flow is continuous in time in both Gromov-Hausdorff and Gromov-$W_1$ distance. In particular, the singular sets of each time slice and its tangent cones are close and of codimension no less than $4$.

Tangent Flows of Kähler Metric Flows

We improve the description of $\mathbb{F}$-limits of noncollapsed Ricci flows in the Kähler setting. In particular, the singular strata $\mathcal{S}^k$ of such metric flows satisfy $\mathcal{S}^{2j}=\mathcal{S}^{2j+1}$. We also prove an analogous result for quantitative strata, and show that any tangent flow admits a nontrivial one-parameter action by isometries, which is locally free on the cone link in the static case. The main results are established using parabolic regularizations of conjugate heat kernel potential functions based at almost-selfsimilar points, which may be of independent interest.

Diameter and Ricci curvature estimates for long-time solutions of the Kahler-Ricci flow

It is well known that the Kähler-Ricci flow on a Kähler manifold $X$ admits a long-time solution if and only if $X$ is a minimal model, i.e., the canonical line bundle $K_X$ is nef. The abundance conjecture in algebraic geometry predicts that $K_X$ must be semi-ample when $X$ is a projective minimal model. We prove that if $K_X$ is semi-ample, then the diameter is uniformly bounded for long-time solutions of the normalized Kähler-Ricci flow. Our diameter estimate combined with the scalar curvature estimate in [34] for long-time solutions of the Kähler-Ricci flow are natural extensions of Perelman's diameter and scalar curvature estimates for short-time solutions on Fano manifolds. We further prove that along the normalized Kähler-Ricci flow, the Ricci curvature is uniformly bounded away from singular fibres of $X$ over its unique algebraic canonical model $X_{can}$ if the Kodaira dimension of $X$ is one. As an application, the normalized Kähler-Ricci flow on a minimal threefold $X$ always converges sequentially in Gromov-Hausdorff topology to a compact metric space homeomorphic to its canonical model $X_{can}$, with uniformly bounded Ricci curvature away from the critical set of the pluricanonical map from $X$ to $X_{can}$.
