Abstract
We show that along the almost Hermitian curvature flow, the non-positivity of the first Chern–Ricci curvature can be preserved if the initial almost Hermitian metric has the Griffiths non-positive Chern curvature. If additionally, the first Chern–Ricci curvature of the initial metric is negative at some point, then we show that the almost complex structure of a compact non-quasi-Kähler almost Hermitian manifold equipped with such a metric cannot be integrable.
