In this note we derive an improved no-local-collapsing theorem of Ricci flow under the scalar curvature bound condition along the worldline of the basepoint. It is a refinement of Perelman's no-local-collapsing theorem.

We first prove a uniform integral Laplace comparison result for the K\"ahler Ricci flow on Fano manifolds which depends only on the initial metric. As an application, using Cheeger-Colding theory and previous results by some of the authors,…

We generalize most of the known Ricci flow invariant non-negative curvature conditions to less restrictive negative bounds that remain sufficiently controlled for a short time. As an illustration of the contents of the paper, we prove that…

We show that the analog of Hamilton's Ricci flow in the combinatorial setting produces solutions which converge exponentially fast to Thurston's circle packing on surfaces. As a consequence, a new proof of Thurston's existence of circle…

Utilizing a splitting of geometric flows on surfaces introduced by Buzano and Rupflin, we present a general scheme to prove blow up criteria for such geometric flows. A vital ingredient is a new compactness theorem for families of metrics…
