Abstract: In an unpublished paper, Hsu gives a proof of the convergence of the fundamental solutions. Since we had a problem understanding Hsu's paper, in this paper we give a detailed proof of the convergence of the minimal positive fundamental solutions of the conjugate heat equation on complete non-compact manifolds under the Cheeger-Gromov convergence of Ricci flows.
