We study the flow of Hermitian metrics governed by the second Chern-Ricci form on a compact complex manifolds. The flow belongs to the family of Hermitian curvature flows introduced by Streets and Tian and it was considered by Lee in order…

We localize the entropy functionals of G. Perelman and generalize his no-local-collapsing theorem and pseudo-locality theorem. Our generalization is technically inspired by further development of Li-Yau estimate along the Ricci flow. It can…

We obtain a compactness result for Fano manifolds and K\"ahler Ricci flows. Comparing to the more general Riemannian versions by Anderson and Hamilton, in this Fano case, the curvature assumption is much weaker and is preserved by the…

In this paper, we first introduce the weighted forward reduced volume of Ricci flow. The weighted forward reduced volume, which related to expanders of Ricci flow, is well-defined on noncompact manifolds and monotone non-increasing under…

We consider the K\"ahler-Ricci flow on a Fano manifold. We show that if the curvature remains uniformly bounded along the flow, the Mabuchi energy is bounded below, and the manifold is K-polystable, then the manifold admits a…

In this note, we prove that on an $n$-dimensional compact toric manifold with positive first Chern class, the K\"ahler-Ricci flow with any initial $(S^1)^n$-invariant K\"ahler metric converges to a K\"ahler-Ricci soliton. In particular, we…

Perelman has discovered two integral quantities, the shrinker entropy $\cW$ and the (backward) reduced volume, that are monotone under the Ricci flow $\pa g_{ij}/\pa t=-2R_{ij}$ and constant on shrinking solitons. Tweaking some signs, we…

Let $X = M \times E$ where $M$ is an $m$-dimensional K\"ahler manifold with negative first Chern class and $E$ is an $n$-dimensional complex torus. We obtain $C^\infty$ convergence of the normalized K\"ahler-Ricci flow on $X$ to a…

We show that a strict, nearly K\"ahler $6$-manifold with either second or third Betti number nonzero is linearly unstable with respect to the $\nu$-entropy of Perelman and hence is dynamically unstable for the Ricci flow.
