We show that any tangent cone of a singular shrinking K\"ahler-Ricci soliton is a normal affine algebraic variety. Moreover, the regular set of such a tangent cone in the metric sense coincides with the regular set in the algebraic sense.…

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…

We investigate the scalar curvature behavior along the normalized conical K\"ahler-Ricci flow $\omega_t$, which is the conic version of the normalized K\"ahler-Ricci flow, with finite maximal existence time $T<\infty $. We prove that the…

We explain a characterization of Einstein-Fano manifolds in terms of the lower bound of the density of the volume of the K\"ahler-Ricci Flow. This is a direct consequence of Perelman's uniform estimate for the K\"ahler-Ricci Flow and a…

Classical particle mechanics on curved spaces is related to the flow of ideal fluids, by a dual interpretation of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation. As in second quantization, the procedure relates the description of a system with a finite…

In this paper, we show that on a compact K\"ahler manifold the Calabi flow can be extended as long as some space-time $L^p$ integrals of the scalar curvature are bounded.

We study a flow of $G_2$ structures which induce the same Riemannian metric which is the negative gradient flow of an energy functional. We prove Shi-type estimates for the torsion tensor along the flow. We show that at a finite-time…

We present a first-principles derivation of the K\"ahler metric for axion-like moduli of conformally Calabi-Yau compactifications of IIB string theory with imaginary self-dual 3-form flux at the classical level. We find that the warp factor…

The Ricci flow equation of a conformally flat Riemannian metric on a closed 2-dimensional configuration space is analysed. It turns out to be equivalent to the classical Hamilton-Jacobi equation for a point particle subject to a potential…

We present variational approximations of boundary value problems for curvature flow (curve shortening flow) and elastic flow (curve straightening flow) in two-dimensional Riemannian manifolds that are conformally flat. For the evolving open…

In this paper, we prove that K\"ahler-Ricci flow converges to a K\"ahler-Einstein metric (or a K\"ahler-Ricci soliton) in the sense of Cheeger-Gromov as long as an initial K\"ahler metric is very closed to $g_{KE}$ (or $g_{KS}$) if a…

We use the momentum construction of Calabi to study the conical K\"ahler-Ricci flow on Hirzebruch surfaces with cone angle along the exceptional curve, and show that either the flow Gromov-Hausdorff converges to the Riemann sphere or a…

In this paper we study the problem of finding a conformal metric with the property that the k-th elementary symmetric polynomial of the eigenvalues of its Weyl-Schouten tensor is constant. A new conformal invariant involving maximal volumes…

We offer an example of the second order Kawaguchi metric function the extremal flow of which generalizes the flat space-time model of the semi-classical spinning particle to the framework of the pseudo-Riemannian space-time. The general…

We recast the Calabi flow in DeGiorgi's language of minimizing movements. We establish the long time existence of minimizing movements for K-energy with arbitrary initial condition. Furthermore we establish some a priori regularity of these…

We consider a general formulation of gradient flow evolution for problems whose natural framework is the one of metric spaces. The applications we deal with are concerned with the evolution of {\it capacitary measures} with respect to the…

We consider the K\"ahler-Ricci flow $\frac{\partial}{\partial t}g_{i\bar{j}} = g_{i\bar{j}} - R_{i\bar{j}}$ on a compact K\"ahler manifold $M$ with $c_1(M) > 0$, of complex dimension $k$. We prove the $\epsilon$-regularity lemma for the…

It is well known that the K\"ahler-Ricci flow on a K\"ahler manifold $X$ admits a long-time solution if and only if $X$ is a minimal model, i.e., the canonical line bundle $K_X$ is nef. The abundance conjecture in algebraic geometry…

In this note, we extend our previous work on the inverse $\sigma_k$ problem. Inverse $\sigma_{k}$ problem is a fully nonlinear geometric PDE on compact K\"ahler manifolds. Given a proper geometric condition, we prove that a large family of…

Using $\delta$-invariants and Newton--Okounkov bodies, we derive the optimal volume upper bound for K\"ahler manifolds with positive Ricci curvature, from which we get a new characterization of the complex projective space.
