We prove the triviality of the first L2 cohomology class of based path spaces of Riemannian manifolds furnished with Brownian motion measure, and the consequent vanishing of L2 harmonic one-forms. We give explicit formulae for closed and…

We study the convergence of complete non-compact conformally flat solutions to the Yamabe flow to Yamabe steady solitons. We also prove the existence of Type II singularities which develop at either a finite time $T$ or as $t \to +\infty$.

We prove regularity, global existence, and convergence of Lagrangian mean curvature flows in the two-convex case. Such results were previously only known in the convex case, of which the current work represents a significant improvement.…

We study loops of symplectic diffeomorphisms of closed symplectic manifolds. Our main result, which is valid for a large class of symplectic manifolds, shows that the flux of a symplectic loop vanishes whenever its orbits are contractible.…

We prove a dichotomy regarding the behavior of one-parameter unipotent flows on quotients of semisimple lie groups under time change. We show that if $u^{(1)}_t$ acting on $G_{1}/\Gamma_1$ is such a flow it satisfies exactly one of the…

We use a first-order energy quantity to prove a strengthened statement of uniqueness for the Ricci flow. One consequence of this statement is that if a complete solution on a noncompact manifold has uniformly bounded Ricci curvature, then…
