In this paper, we shall use the K\"ahler geometry formulation to study the global behavior of the Ricci flow on $R^2$. The geometric feature of our Ricci flow is that it has finite width. Our aim is to determine the limiting metric (which…

We show that on a smooth Hermitian minimal model of general type the Chern-Ricci flow converges to a closed positive current on M. Moreover, the flow converges smoothly to a Kahler-Einstein metric on compact sets away from the null locus of…

In 1870s, L. Boltzmann proved the famous $H$-theorem for the Boltzmann equation in the kinetic theory of gas and gave the statistical interpretation of the thermodynamic entropy. In 2002, G. Perelman introduced the notion of $W$-entropy and…

Assuming uniform bounds for the curvature, the exponential convergence of the K\"ahler-Ricci flow is established under two conditions which are a form of stability: the Mabuchi energy is bounded from below, and the dimension of the space of…

We investigate Riemannian (non-Kahler) Ricci flow solutions that develop finite-time Type-I singularities and present evidence in favor of a conjecture that parabolic rescalings at the singularities converge to singularity models that are…

This note illustrates the Ricci flow method based on the Cao.H.D's paper[1] and Yau.S.T's paper[4], and tries to explain the method in detail, especially in some calculations. Jian Song and Weinkove's note[9] used some other estimates to…
