Song–Tian's Gromov–Hausdorff convergence conjecture for the Kähler-Ricci flow

About 9 years old · traced to

Let (Xn,ω0)(X^n,\omega_0) be a compact Kähler manifold with KXK_X semiample and numerical dimension 0<m<n0<m<n. Let ω(t)\omega(t) solve the normalized Kähler-Ricci flow, and let YY, Y∘Y^\circ, and ωcan\omega_{\rm can} be as in the associated canonical fibration.

Song–Tian's Gromov–Hausdorff conjecture.

(a) There is C>0C>0 such that

diam⁡(X,ω(t))⩽C\operatorname{diam}(X,\omega(t))\leqslant C

for all t⩾0t\geqslant0.

(b) As t→+∞t\to+\infty, (X,ω(t))(X,\omega(t)) converges in the Gromov–Hausdorff topology to (Z,d)(Z,d), where (Z,d)(Z,d) is the metric completion of (Y∘,ωcan)(Y^\circ,\omega_{\rm can}).

(c) ZZ is homeomorphic to YY.

The conjecture describes the global metric limit of the collapsing Kähler-Ricci flow, beyond the known local estimates away from singular fibers. Some cases are known, but the general assertions were presented as conjectural in the cited discussion.
