We consider the formation of singularities along the Calabi flow with the assumption of the uniform Sobolev constant. In particular, on K\"ahler surface we show that any "maximal bubble" has to be a scalar flat ALE K\"ahler metric. In some…
We consider a general curvature equation $F(\kappa)=G(X,\nu(X))$, where $\kappa$ is the principal curvature of the hypersurface $M$ with position vector $X$. It includes the classical prescribed curvature measures problem and area measures…
We make a conjecture about mean curvature flow of Lagrangian submanifolds of Calabi-Yau manifolds, expanding on \cite{Th}. We give new results about the stability condition, and propose a Jordan-H\"older-type decomposition of (special)…
In this paper we develop an approach to conformal geometry of piecewise flat metrics on manifolds. In particular, we formulate the combinatorial Yamabe problem for piecewise flat metrics. In the case of surfaces, we define the combinatorial…
We give an extensive treatment of the Constant Mean Curvature (CMC) Einstein flow from the point of view of the Bel-Robinson energies. The article, in particular, stresses on estimates showing how the Bel-Robinson energies and the volume of…
We introduce the space of mixed-volume forms endowed with a $L^2$ metric on a balanced manifold. A geodesic equation can be derived in this space that has an interesting structure and extends the equation of Donaldson \cite{Donaldson10} and…
Following Hausel-Hitchin, we investigate core Lagrangians and upward flows in Hilbert schemes of points on elliptic surfaces. We compute the scheme-theoretic multiplicities of core Lagrangians, as well as the equivariant multiplicities of…
A curve $C$ on a variety $X$ is stably balanced if the slopes of the Harder-Narasimhan filtration of its normal bundle $N$ are contained in an interval of length 1. For each $d\geq n+1$ we construct some regular families of pairs $(C, X)$…
In this paper, we study a natural discretization of the smooth Gaussian curvature on surfaces. A discrete uniformization theorem is established for this discrete Gaussian curvature. We further investigate the prescribing combinatorial…
In this paper, by generalizing the concept of balanced metrics, we shall show that Donaldson's asymptotic approximation of balanced metrics for constant scalar curvature cases can be generalized to extremal Kaehler cases.
This paper investigates the twisted Calabi functional and the associated twisted Calabi flow on compact K\"ahler manifolds. Our main contributions are threefold: first, we establish the convexity of the twisted Calabi functional at its…
Let us consider a projective manifold and $\Omega$ a volume form. We define the gradient flow associated to the problem of $\Omega$-balanced metrics in the quantum formalism, the \Omega$-balacing flow. At the limit of the quantization, we…
This preliminary report studies immersed surfaces of constant mean curvature in $H^3$ through their {\it adjusted Gauss maps} (as harmonic maps in $S^2$) and their {\it adjusted frames} in SU(2). Lawson's correspondence between Euclidean…
We study a fully nonlinear flow for conformal metrics. The long-time existence and the sequential convergence of flow are established for locally conformally flat manifolds. As an application, we solve the $\sk$-Yamabe problem for locally…
We exhibit a concentration-collapse decomposition of singularities of fourth order curvature flows, including the $L^2$ curvature flow and Calabi flow, in dimensions $n \leq 4$. The proof requires the development of several new a priori…
Particles moving inside a fluid near, and interacting with, invariant manifolds is a common phenomenon in a wide variety of applications. One elementary question is whether we can determine once a particle has entered a neighbourhood of an…
We study an analogue of the Calabi flow in the non-K\"ahler setting for compact Hermitian manifolds with vanishing first Bott-Chern class. We prove a priori estimates for the evolving metric along the flow given a uniform bound on the Chern…
We first proved a compactness theorem of the K\"ahler metrics, which confirms a prediction of Chen. Then we prove several eigenvalue estimates along the Calabi flow. Combining the compactness theorem and these eigenvalue estimates, we…
We investigate the asymptotic stability of the length-penalized elastic flow of curves with boundary points constrained to the $x$-axis in $\mathbb{R}^2$. The main tool in our analysis is the Lojasiewicz--Simon inequality, which is used to…
We investigate the shallow flow of viscous fluid into and out of a channel whose gap width increases as a power-law ($x^n$), where $x$ is the downstream axis. The fluid flows slowly, while injected at a rate in the form of $t^\alpha$, where…
