The Long-Time Behavior of the Ricci Tensor Under The Ricci Flow
  We show that, given an immortal solution to the Ricci flow on a closed manifold with uniformly bounded curvature and diameter, the Ricci tensor goes to zero as t goes to infinity. We also show that if there exists an immortal solution on a closed 3-dimensional manifold such that the product of the square of the diameter with the norm of the curvature tensor is uniformly bounded, then the solution must be of type III.
