AbstractWe consider Ricci flow invariant cones 𝒞 in the space of curvature operators lying between the cones “nonnegative Ricci curvature” and “nonnegative curvature operator”. Assuming some mild control on the scalar curvature of the Ricci flow, we show that if a solution to the Ricci flow has its curvature operator which satisfies

AbstractAs a continuation of a previous paper, we prove Perelman’s assertion, that is, for ancient solutions to the Ricci flow with bounded nonnegative curvature operator, uniformly bounded entropy is equivalent to κ-noncollapsing on all scales. We also establish an equality between the asymptotic entropy and the asymptotic reduced volume, which is a result similar to a paper by Xu (2017), where he assumes the Type I curvature bound.
