Fibre diameter and scalar curvature conjecture near Ricci vertices

Let g(t)g(t) be the maximal Kähler-Ricci flow on X×[0,1)X\times[0,1), let θYϑ\theta_Y\in\vartheta be a smooth closed (1,1)(1,1)-form on YY, and let ptp_t be a Ricci vertex associated to θY\theta_Y at time tt. For D>0D>0, let B(pt,t,D(1t)1/2)B(p_t,t,D(1-t)^{1/2}) denote the time-tt metric ball of that radius. For qq in this ball, set Fq=Φ1(Φ(q))\mathcal{F}_q=\Phi^{-1}(\Phi(q)). Fibre diameter and scalar curvature conjecture. There is C=C(n,g0,θY,D)>0C=C(n,g_0,\theta_Y,D)>0 such that

Diam(Fq,g(t))C(1t)1/2,\operatorname{Diam}(\mathcal{F}_q,g(t))\leq C(1-t)^{1/2},

and

supFqR(,t)C1t.\sup_{\mathcal{F}_q}|R(\cdot,t)|\leq \frac{C}{1-t}.

Here R(t)R(t) is the scalar curvature and the diameter is measured in (X,g(t))(X,g(t)). This conjecture seeks to remove the tubular-neighbourhood volume assumption used in the preceding theorem; its general validity is open.
