In this paper, we prove that the first eigenvalues of $-\Delta + cR$ ($c\geq \frac14$) is nondecreasing under the Ricci flow. We also prove the monotonicity under the normalized flow for the case $c=1/4$, and $r\le 0$.

We introduce a flow of Riemannian metrics over compact manifolds with formal limit at infinite time a shrinking Ricci soliton. We call this flow the Soliton-Ricci flow. It correspond to a Perelman's modified backward Ricci type flow with…

We extend the concept of singular Ricci flow by Kleiner and Lott from 3d compact manifolds to 3d complete manifolds with possibly unbounded curvature. As an application of the generalized singular Ricci flow, we show that for any 3d…
