“…There has been a good deal of work on determining the stability of Einstein metrics and it is expected that stable geometries should be quite special. By combining the above result with the work of Cao and He , we now have a complete understanding of Ricci flow stability for the canonical Einstein metrics on the compact, connected, simply connected, simple Lie groups. Corollary If is a compact, connected, simply connected, simple Lie group and the bi‐invariant metric is dynamically stable then is one of: - , for , , , or .
If the metric is unstable, then is one of: - for , for , .
