We announce a new proof of the uniform estimate on the curvature of solutions to the Ricci flow on a compact K\"ahler manifold $M^n$ with positive bisectional curvature. In contrast to the recent work of X. Chen and G. Tian, our proof of…
We introduce a flow of K\"ahler structures over Fano manifolds with formal limit at infinite time a K\"ahler-Ricci soliton. This flow correspond to a Perelman's modified backward K\"ahler-Ricci type flow that we call Soliton-K\"ahler-Ricci…
We study the K\"ahler-Ricci flow on a class of projective bundles $\mathbb{P}(\mathcal{O}_\Sigma \oplus L)$ over compact K\"ahler-Einstein manifold $\Sigma^n$. Assuming the initial K\"ahler metric $\omega_0$ admits a U(1)-invariant momentum…
This is an expository article, closely following the author's lecture at the 2014 Journal Differential Geometry conference.
These lecture notes have been prepared as a course in fluid mechanics up to the presentation of the millennium problem listed by the Clay Mathematical Institute. At the end, a very modern aspect of fluid mechanics is covered concerning the…
We decribe and announce some results (joint with G. Besson, L. Bessieres, M. Boileau and J.Porti) about the geometry and topology of 3-manifolds. Most of the article is primarily intended as an introduction for nonexperts to geometrization…
This is a set of expository lecture notes created originally for a graduate course on holomorphic curves taught at ETH Zurich and the Humboldt University Berlin in 2009/2010. The notes are still incomplete, but due to recent requests from…
We survey some recent developments on solutions of the K\"ahler-Ricci flow on compact K\"ahler manifolds which exist for all positive times.
Let $(M,J_0)$ be a Fano manifold which admits a K\"ahler-Ricci soliton, we analyze the behavior of the K\"ahler-Ricci flow near this soliton as we deform the complex structure $J_0$. First, we will establish an inequality of Lojasiewicz's…
We show that the K\"ahler-Ricci flow on a manifold with positive first Chern class converges to a K\"ahler-Einstein metric assuming positive bisectional curvature and certain stability conditions.
These lecture notes are based on a set of six lectures that I gave in Edinburgh in 2008/2009 and they cover some topics in the interface between Geometry and Physics. They involve some unsolved problems and conjectures and I hope they may…
In this article and in its sequel we propose the study of certain discretizations of geometric evolution equations as an approach to the study of the existence problem of some elliptic partial differential equations of a geometric nature as…
In this paper we prove that for a given K\"ahler-Ricci flow with uniformly bounded Ricci curvatures in an arbitrary dimension, for every sequence of times $t_i$ converging to infinity, there exists a subsequence such that $(M,g(t_i + t))\to…
This paper presents an extended version of lecture notes for an introductory course on Berkovich analytic spaces that I gave in 2010 at Summer School "Berkovich spaces" at Institut de Mathmatiques de Jussieu.
Ricci flow on two dimensional surfaces is far simpler than in the higher dimensional cases. This presents an opportunity to obtain much more detailed and comprehensive results. We review the basic facts about this flow, including the…
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 work we investigate Ricci flows of almost Kaehler structures on Lie algebroids when the fundamental geometric objects are completely determined by (semi) Riemannian metrics, or effective) regular generating Lagrange/ Finsler,…
In 2011 Enders, M\"{u}ller and Topping showed that any blow up sequence of a Type I Ricci flow near a singular point converges to a non-trivial gradient Ricci soliton, leading them to conclude that for such flows all reasonable definitions…
We prove that any singular K\"ahler--Ricci shrinker $X$ arising as a noncollapsed limit of K\"ahler--Ricci flows admits a natural structure of a locally algebraic complex-analytic variety with log terminal singularities. We then derive…
We give a global picture of the Ricci flow on the space of three-dimensional, unimodular, nonabelian metric Lie algebras considered up to isometry and scaling. The Ricci flow is viewed as a two-dimensional dynamical system for the evolution…
