This is a continuation of the research in [16]. Let $(\overline{M},g_{-1})$ be a closed geodesic $r_0$-ball in the hyperbolic space $(\mathbb{H}^n,g_{-1})$. Let $m\neq1$ be a positive constant. In this paper, we show that for $n\geq3$,…

Consider a Riemannian manifold $(M^{m}, g)$ whose volume is the same as the standard sphere $(S^{m}, g_{round})$. If $p>\frac{m}{2}$ and $\int_{M} \left\{ Rc-(m-1)g\right\}_{-}^{p} dv$ is sufficiently small, we show that the normalized…

We prove that a Ricci flow cannot develop a finite time singularity assuming the boundedness of a suitable space-time integral norm of the curvature tensor. Moreover, the extensibility of the flow is proved under a Ricci lower bound and the…

It is a theorem of S. Bando that if $g(t)$ is a solution to the Ricci flow on a compact manifold $M$, then $(M, g(t))$ is real-analytic for each $t >0$. In this note, we extend his result to smooth solutions on open domains $U\subset M$.

The examples of the Ricci flows on four-dimendionsl manifolds which are determined by help of nonlinear differentials equations of the type of Monge-Ampere are constructed. Their particular solutions and their properties are discussed.

In this paper, we study the evolution of $L^2$ one forms under Ricci flow with bounded curvature on a non-compact Rimennian manifold. We show on such a manifold that the $L^2$ norm of a smooth one form with compact support is non-increasing…

In this survey article, we discuss some topics on self-similar solutions to the Ricci flow and the mean curvature flow. Self-similar solutions to the Ricci flow are known as Ricci solitons. In the first part of this paper we discuss a lower…

We define solitons for the generalized Ricci flow on an exact Courant algebroid, building on the definitions of M. Garcia-Fernandez and J. Streets. We then define a family of flows for left-invariant Dorfman brackets on an exact Courant…

In recent work of Chan-Huang-Lee, it is shown that if a manifold enjoys uniform bounds on (a) the negative part of the scalar curvature, (b) the local entropy, and (c) volume ratios up to a fixed scale, then there exists a Ricci flow for…

We show that the norm of the Riemann curvature tensor of any smooth solution to the Ricci flow can be explicitly estimated in terms of its initial values on a given ball, a local uniform bound on the Ricci tensor, and the elapsed time. This…

This article grew out of the urge to realize explicit examples of solutions for the Ricci flow as families of isometrically embedded submanifolds, together with its Gromov-Hausdorff collapses. To this aim, we consider the Ricci flow of…

In this paper, we derive a relative volume comparison estimate along Ricci flow and apply it to studying the Gromov-Hausdorff convergence of K\"ahler-Ricci flow on a minimal manifold. This new estimate generalizes Perelman's no local…

In this paper, for a given compact 3-manifold with an initial Riemannian metric and a symmetric tensor, we establish the short-time existence and uniqueness theorem for extension of cross curvature flow. We give an example of this flow on…

We develop a perturbative formulation of the Ricci flow in gravity. Following steps analogous to the gradient flow in QCD, we supplement the usual Feynman rules for perturbative gravity by flowed propagators and vertices as well as graviton…

We consider Type I Ricci flows and obtain integral estimates for the curvature tensor valid up to, and including, the singular time. Our estimates partially extend to higher dimensions a curvature estimate recently shown to hold in…

We give a complete description of the global existence and convergence for the Ricci-Yang-Mills flow on $T^k$ bundles over Riemann surfaces. These results equivalently describe solutions to generalized Ricci flow and pluriclosed flow with…

We confirm a conjecture of Hamilton: On compact manifolds the normalized Ricci flow evolves metrics with positive curvature operators to limit metrics with constant curvature.

We provide a derivative estimate for the pluriclosed flow, controlling higher order derivatives of Chern curvature and torsion using the Chern curvature. Moreover, we derive an estimate for torsion tensor using Chern Ricci curvature in…

We consider the volume-normalized Ricci flow close to compact shrinking Ricci solitons. We show that if a compact Ricci soliton $(M,g)$ is a local maximum of Perelman's shrinker entropy, any normalized Ricci flow starting close to it exists…

In this paper we study backward Ricci flow of locally homogeneous geometries of $4$-manifolds which admit compact quotients. We describe the long-term behavior of each class and show that many of the classes exhibit the same behavior near…
