We analyse finite-time singularities of the Teichm\"uller harmonic map flow -- a natural gradient flow of the harmonic map energy -- and find a canonical way of flowing beyond them in order to construct global solutions in full generality.…

We revisit the relation between the gradient-flow equations and Hamilton's equations in information geometry. By regarding the gradient-flow equations as Huygens' equations in geometric optics, we have related the gradient flows to the…

A flow of electrically conducting fluid in the presence of a steady magnetic field has a tendency to become quasi two-dimensional, i.e. uniform in the direction of the magnetic field, except in thin so-called Hartmann boundary layers. The…

Applications of normalizing flows to the sampling of field configurations in lattice gauge theory have so far been explored almost exclusively in two space-time dimensions. We report new algorithmic developments of gauge-equivariant flow…

We study a continuous-time system that solves optimization problems over the set of orthonormal matrices, which is also known as the Stiefel manifold. The resulting optimization flow follows a path that is not always on the manifold but…

In this article we extend the test of Hamiltonian Renormalisation proposed in this series of articles to the D-dimensional case using a massive free scalar field. The concepts we introduce are explicitly computed for the D=2 case but…

We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the integrability in quadratures of geodesic flows on homogeneous spaces $M$ with invariant and central metrics. The proposed integration algorithm consists in using a special canonical…

Functional renormalization group equations are analytically continued from imaginary Matsubara frequencies to the real frequency axis. On the example of a scalar field with O(N) symmetry we discuss the analytic structure of the flowing…

We propose Riemannian Flow Matching (RFM), a simple yet powerful framework for training continuous normalizing flows on manifolds. Existing methods for generative modeling on manifolds either require expensive simulation, are inherently…

By studying the weak closure of multidimensional off-diagonal self-joinings we provide a criterion for non-isomorphism of a flow with its inverse, hence the non-reversibility of a flow. This is applied to special flows over rigid…

We discuss pseudo-Riemannian metrics on 2-dimensional manifolds such that the geodesic flow admits a nontrivial integral quadratic in velocities. We construct local normal forms of such metrics. We show that these metrics have certain…

Assignment flows denote a class of dynamical models for contextual data labeling (classification) on graphs. We derive a novel parametrization of assignment flows that reveals how the underlying information geometry induces two processes…

We employ the curve shortening flow to establish three new results on the dynamics of geodesic flows of closed Riemannian surfaces. The first one is the stability, under $C^0$-small perturbations of the Riemannian metric, of certain flat…

We study Poincar\'e recurrence for flows and observations of flows. For Anosov flow, we prove that the recurrence rates are linked to the local dimension of the invariant measure. More generally, we give for the recurrence rates for the…

The geometric quantization of the geodesic flow on a compact Riemannian manifold via the BKS "dragging projection" yields the Laplacian plus a scalar curvature term. To avoid convergence issues, the standard construction involves somewhat…

We consider geodesic flows between hypersurfaces in $\R^n$. However, rather than consider using geodesics in $\R^n$, which are straight lines, we consider an induced flow using geodesics between the tangent spaces of the hypersurfaces…

The harmonic map energy of a map from a closed, constant-curvature surface to a closed target manifold can be seen as a functional on the space of maps and domain metrics. We consider the gradient flow for this energy. In the absence of…

We consider the evolution of a compact segment of an analytic curve on the unit tangent bundle of a finite volume hyperbolic $n$-manifold under the geodesic flow. Suppose that the curve is not contained in a stable leaf of the flow. It is…

In this study, we introduce novel methodologies designed to adapt original data in response to the dynamics of persistence diagrams along Wasserstein gradient flows. Our research focuses on the development of algorithms that translate…

Continuous normalizing flows are known to be highly expressive and flexible, which allows for easier incorporation of large symmetries and makes them a powerful computational tool for lattice field theories. Building on previous work, we…
