We study non-collapsed Gromov-Hausdorff limits of Kähler manifolds with Ricci curvature bounded below. Our main result is that each tangent cone is homeomorphic to a normal affine variety. This extends a result of Donaldson-Sun, who considered non-collapsed limits of polarized Kähler manifolds with two-sided Ricci curv…

Let $X$ be a non-collapsing Ricci limit space and let $x\in X$. We show that for any $ε>0$, there is $r>0$ such that every loop in $B_t(x)$ is contractible in $B_{(1+ε)t}(x)$, where $t\in(0,r]$. In particular, $X$ is semi-locally simply connected.

We prove a Lipschitz-Volume rigidity theorem for the non-collapsed Gromov-Hausdorff limits of manifolds with Ricci curvature bounded from below. This is a counterpart of the Lipschitz-Volume rigidity in Alexandrov geometry.

We construct and classify, in the case of two complex dimensions, the possible tangent cones at points of limit spaces of non-collapsed sequences of Kähler-Einstein metrics with cone singularities.

Study two types of singular Kähler-Einstein metrics on complex varieties.

In this paper, we construct local and global solutions to the Kähler-Ricci flow from a non-collapsed Kähler manifold with curvature bounded from below. Combines with the mollification technique of McLeod-Simon-Topping, we show that the Gromov-Hausdorff limit of sequence of complete noncompact non-collapsed Kähler manif…

In this short note we provide several conjectures on the regularity of measured Gromov-Hausdorff limit spaces of Riemannian manifolds with Ricci curvature bounded below, from the point of view of the synthetic treatment of lower bounds on Ricci curvature for metric measure spaces.

In this note, we prove that any non-collapsing and compact Gromov-Hausdorff limit of Kahler-Einstein manifolds is either smooth or is orbifold outside a subvariety of complex codimension at least 3.

Ancient Ricci flows on non-collapsed manifolds have finite fundamental groups.

We show characterizations of non-collapsed compact $RCD(K, N)$ spaces, which in particular confirm a conjecture of De Philippis-Gigli on the implication from the weakly non-collapsed condition to the non-collapsed one in the compact case. The key idea is to give the explicit formula of the Laplacian associated to the p…

Uniform estimates lead to Gromov-Hausdorff limits for Hermitian minimal models.

We consider complete (possibly non-compact) three dimensional Riemannian manifolds (M,g) such that: a) (M,g) is non-collapsed, b) the Ricci curvature of (M,g) is bounded from below, c) the geometry of (M,g) at infinity is not too extreme. Given such initial data (M,g) we show that a Ricci flow exists for a short time i…

I study Gromov-Hausdorff limits of complex curves endowed with singular flat metrics of constant diameter. I formulate a criterion that the limit is collapsed in terms of a certain piecewise affine weight function on the dual intersection complex of a semi-stable model of the degeneration introduced by Kontsevich and S…

We prove a non-collapsing property for curvature flows of embedded hypersurfaces in the sphere and in hyperbolic space.

We prove a uniform Sobolev inequality for Ricci flow, which is independent of the number of surgeries. As an application, under less assumptions, a non-collapsing result stronger than Perelman's $κ$ non-collapsing with surgery is derived. The proof is shorter and seems more accessible. The result also improves some ear…

Ancient solutions arise in the study of parabolic blow-ups. If we can categorize ancient solutions, we can better understand blow-up limits. Based on an argument of Giga and Kohn, we give a Liouville-type theorem restricting ancient, type-I, non-collapsing two- dimensional mean curvature flows to either spheres or cyli…

Study shows different fundamental groups for manifolds with same limit.

Study of splitting maps in Type I Ricci flows for understanding singular set structure.

We prove an existence theorem for Asymptotically Conical Ricci Flat Kahler metrics in $\mathbb{C}^2$ with cone singularities along a smooth complex curve. These metrics are expected to arise as blow up limits of non collapsed sequences of Kahler Einstein metrics with cone singularities.

We show non-collapsing for the evolution of nearly spherical closed convex curves in \mathbb{R}^2 under power curvature flow using two-point-methods.

We use Ricci flow to obtain a local bi-Holder correspondence between Ricci limit spaces in three dimensions and smooth manifolds. This is more than a complete resolution of the three-dimensional case of the conjecture of Anderson-Cheeger-Colding-Tian, describing how Ricci limit spaces in three dimensions must be homeom…

We develop a structure theory for non-collapsed Ricci shrinkers without any curvature condition. As applications, we obtain some curvature estimates of the Ricci shrinkers depending only on the non-collapsing constant.

Limits of manifolds with Kato bound on Ricci curvature are rectifiable.

It was recently proved that embedded solutions of Euclidean hypersurface flows with speeds given by concave (convex), degree one homogeneous functions of the Weingarten map are interior (exterior) non-collapsing. These results were subsequently extended to hypersurface flows in the sphere and hyperbolic space. In the f…

We give two new proofs of Perelman's theorem that shrinking breathers of Ricci flow on closed manifolds are gradient Ricci solitons, using the fact that the singularity models of type I solutions are shrinking gradient Ricci solitons and the fact that non-collapsed type I ancient solutions have rescaled limits being sh…

We construct a family of non-collapsed, non-Kähler, non-Einstein steady Ricci solitons in even dimensions greater or equal to four. These solitons exist on complex line bundles over Kähler-Einstein manifolds of positive scalar curvature. They include a four-dimensional $U(2)$-invariant, non-collapsed Riemannian steady …

Sphere theorems for specific manifolds with curvature constraints.

We show that non-collapsed Gromov-Hausdorff limits of polarized Kahler manifolds, with Ricci curvature bounded below, are normal projective varieties, and the metric singularities of the limit space are precisely given by a countable union of analytic subvarieties. This extends a fundamental result of Donaldson-Sun, in…

Study the topology of Ricci limit spaces using Gromov-Hausdorff limits.

In this paper, we study the structure of the limit space of a sequence of almost Einstein manifolds, which are generalizations of Einstein manifolds. Roughly speaking, such manifolds are the initial manifolds of some normalized Ricci flows whose scalar curvatures are almost constants over space-time in the $L^1$-sense,…
