For triangulated surfaces locally embedded in the standard hyperbolic space, we introduce combinatorial Calabi flow as the negative gradient flow of combinatorial Calabi energy. We prove that the flow produces solutions which converge to…

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 show that the pluriclosed flow preserves generalized K\"ahler structures with the extra condition $[J_+,J_-] = 0$, a condition referred to as "split tangent bundle." Moreover, we show that in this in this case the flow reduces to a…

In this paper, we establish a framework for the analysis of linear parabolic equations on conical surfaces and use them to study the conical Ricci flow. In particular, we prove the long time existence of the conical Ricci flow for general…

The J-flow of S. K. Donaldson and X. X. Chen is a parabolic flow on Kahler manifolds with two Kahler metrics. It is the gradient flow of the J-functional which appears in Chen's formula for the Mabuchi energy. We find a positivity condition…

We investigate the limiting behavior of the unnormalized Kahler-Ricci flow on a Kahler manifold with a polarized initial Kahler metric. We prove that the Kahler-Ricci flow becomes extinct in finite time if and only if the manifold has…

In this paper we study the Ricci flow on surfaces homeomorphic to a cylinder (that is, a product of the circle with a compact interval). We prove longtime existence results, results on the asymptotic behavior of the flow, and we report on…

We show that on a Kahler manifold whether the J-flow converges or not is independent of the chosen background metric in its Kahler class. On toric manifolds we give a numerical characterization of when the J-flow converges, verifying a…

We show that the solution constructed in an earlier work of Y-G. Shi and the authors can be used to obtain sharp gradient estimates for the Kaehler-Ricci flow which achieves equality on a steady soliton. The estimate can be applied to…

We prove that, under a semi-ampleness type assumption on the twisted canonical line bundle, the conical K\"ahler-Ricci flow on a minimal elliptic K\"ahler surface converges in the sense of currents to a generalized conical K\"ahler-Einstein…

We improve the description of $\mathbb{F}$-limits of noncollapsed Ricci flows in the K\"ahler setting. In particular, the singular strata $\mathcal{S}^k$ of such metric flows satisfy $\mathcal{S}^{2j}=\mathcal{S}^{2j+1}$. We also prove an…

As a generalization of Kahler-Einstein metrics for Fano manifolds with nonvanishing Futaki invariant, Mabuchi solitons are critical points of a Calabi-type energy functional. We study their existence on toric Fano varieties and the…

We study the limiting behavior of the Kahler-Ricci flow on $\mathbb{P}(\mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^n} \oplus \mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^n}(-1)^{\oplus (m+1)})$, assuming the initial metric satisfies the Calabi symmetry. We show that the flow…

In this paper, we prove the existence of a Kahler Ricci soliton on any smooth Fano horospherical manifold by a study of the Kahler-Ricci flow. Indeed, we prove that the renormalized Kahler Ricci flow converges in the sense of Cheeger Gromov…

We consider the K\"ahler Ricci flow on a smooth minimal model of general type, we show that if the Ricci curvature is uniformly bounded below along the K\"ahler-Ricci flow, then the diameter is uniformly bounded. As a corollary we show that…

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 prove the existence and uniqueness of the weak Kahler-Ricci flow on projective varieties with log terminal singularities. It is also shown that the weak Kahler-Ricci flow can be uniquely continued through divisorial contractions and…
