In an earlier work joint with X. X. Chen and G. Tian, we introduced the weak K\"ahler-Ricci flow for various geometric motivations. In the current work, we take further consideration on setting up the weak flow. Namely, the initial class is…
We formulate a statistical analogy of regular Lagrange mechanics and Finsler geometry derived from Grisha Perelman's functionals generalized for nonholonomic Ricci flows. There are elaborated explicit constructions when nonholonomically…
We study the blowup behavior at infinity of the normalized Kahler-Ricci flow on a Fano manifold which does not admit Kahler-Einstein metrics. We prove an estimate for the Kahler potential away from a multiplier ideal subscheme, which…
We study $n$-dimensional Ricci flows with non-negative Ricci curvature where the curvature is pointwise controlled by the scalar curvature and bounded by $C/t$, starting at metric cones which are Reifenberg outside the tip. We show that any…
It was proved by H. Chen earlier that the property of the sum of any two eigenvalues of the curvature operator is positive is preserved under the ricci flow in all dimensional. By a recent result of Phong-Sturm, a similar notion of positive…
We consider the K\"ahler-Ricci flow on a Fano manifold. We show that if the curvature remains uniformly bounded along the flow, the Mabuchi energy is bounded below, and the manifold is K-polystable, then the manifold admits a…
We develop a stochastic target representation for Ricci flow and normalized Ricci flow on smooth, compact surfaces, analogous to Soner and Touzi's representation of mean curvature flow. We prove a verification/uniqueness theorem, and then…
We show that the twisted K\"ahler-Ricci flow on a complex manifold X converges to a flow of moving free boundaries, in a certain scaling limit. This leads to a new phenomenon of singularity formation and topology change which can be seen as…
We develop a theory of Ricci flow for metrics on Courant algebroids which unifies and extends the analytic theory of various geometric flows, yielding a general tool for constructing solutions to supergravity equations. We prove short time…
For homogeneous metrics on the spaces of the title it is shown that the Ricci flow can move a metric of stricly positive sectional curvature to one with some negative sectional curvature and one of positive definite Ricci tensor to one with…
We prove an existence result for twisted K\"ahler-Einstein metrics, assuming an appropriate twisted K-stability condition. An improvement over earlier results is that certain non-negative twisting forms are allowed.
In this paper, we study the Ricci flow on CP1-bundles over a product of K\"ahler-Einstein manifolds whose initial metric is constructed by the ansatz used in works by M. Wang et. al. We prove that the ansatz is preserved along the Ricci…
Given a compact K\"ahler manifold $X$ and a closed, positive $(1,1)$-current $T$ on $X$, we find sufficient conditions for $T$ to induce a metric structure $(X,d_T)$ which is the Gromov-Hausdorff limit of compact K\"ahler manifolds either…
In the present paper, we prove a stability theorem for the Kaehler Ricci flow near the infimum of the functional E_1 under the assumption that the initial metric has Ricci > -1 and |Riem| bounded. At present stage, our main theorem still…
A theory of gravitation is proposed, modeled after the notion of a Ricci flow. In addition to the metric an independent volume enters as a fundamental geometric structure. Einstein gravity is included as a limiting case. Despite being a…
We study the long time behavior of the Hesse-Koszul flow on compact Hessian manifolds. When the first affine Chern class is negative, we prove that the flow converges to the unique Hesse-Einstein metric. We also derive a convergence result…
A survey of new geometric flows motivated by string theories is provided. Their settings can range from complex geometry to almost-complex geometry to symplectic geometry. From the PDE viewpoint, many of them can be viewed as intermediate…
In this paper, it is elaborated the theory the Ricci flows for manifolds enabled with nonintegrable (nonholonomic) distributions defining nonlinear connection structures. Such manifolds provide a unified geometric arena for nonholonomic…
Motivated by the problem of finding constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metrics, we investigate a Ricci iteration sequence of Rubinstein that discretizes the pseudo-Calabi flow. While the long time existence of the flow is still an open…
In this paper we prove convergence and compactness results for Ricci flows with bounded scalar curvature and entropy. More specifically, we show that Ricci flows with bounded scalar curvature converge smoothly away from a singular set of…
