We consider a gradient flow associated to the mean field equation on $(M,g)$ a compact riemanniann surface without boundary. We prove that this flow exists for all time. Moreover, letting $G$ be a group of isometry acting on $(M,g)$, we…

Mainstream flow matching methods typically focus on learning the local velocity field, which inherently requires multiple integration steps during generation. In contrast, Mean Velocity Flow models establish a relationship between the local…
We analyze the long-time behavior of solutions to semilinear parabolic equations in Euclidean space that arise as gradient flows of an energy functional. We prove that, for general initial data (including data without compact support) the…

We prove an abstract compactness result for gradient flow lines of a non-local unregularized gradient flow equation on a scale Hilbert space. This is the first step towards Floer theory on scale Hilbert spaces.
We consider the evolution of open planar curves by the steepest descent flow of a geometric functional, under different boundary conditions. We prove that, if any set of stationary solutions with fixed energy is finite, then a solution of…
We prove that in the absence of topological changes, the notion of BV solutions to planar multiphase mean curvature flow does not allow for a mechanism for (unphysical) non-uniqueness. Our approach is based on the local structure of the…
This paper investigates the well posedness of ordinary differential equations and more precisely the existence (or uniqueness) of a flow through explicit compactness estimates. Instead of assuming a bounded divergence condition on the…

In this work, we show that a family of non-linear mean-field equations on discrete spaces can be viewed as a gradient flow of a natural free energy functional with respect to a certain metric structure we make explicit. We also prove that…
Under general assumptions on the velocity field, it is possible to construct a flow that is forward untangled. Once such a flow has been selected, the associated transport problem is well-posed.
We study the gradient flow of the Allen-Cahn equation with fixed boundary contact angle in Euclidean domains for initial data with bounded energy. Under general assumptions, we establish both interior and boundary convergence properties for…
We investigate the gradient flow of the $L^2$ norm of the Riemannian curvature on surfaces. We show long time existence with arbitrary initial data, and exponential convergence of the volume normalized flow to a constant scalar curvature…
This paper is concerned with the mean-field limit for the gradient flow evolution of particle systems with pairwise Riesz interactions, as the number of particles tends to infinity. Based on a modulated energy method, using regularity and…
Michor and Mumford showed that the mean curvature flow is a gradient flow on a Riemannian structure with a degenerate geodesic distance. It is also known to destroy the uniform density of gridpoints on the evolving surfaces. We introduce a…
Assuming a-priori a smooth generating vector field, we introduce a generally covariant measure of the flow geometry called the referential gradient of the flow. The main result is the explicit relation between the referential gradient and…
