Abstract

We study the asymptotic behavior of the Kähler-Ricci flow on Kähler manifolds of nonnegative holomorphic bisectional curvature. Using these results we prove that a complete noncompact Kähler manifold with nonnegative and bounded holomorphic bi-sectional curvature and maximal volume growth is biholomorphic to complex Euclidean space Cn. We also show that the volume growth condition can be removed if we assume the Kähler manifold has average quadratic scalar curvature decay and positive curvature operator.
