In this short note, we show that given a special K\"ahler-Einstein degeneration with bounded geometry, for any noncentral fiber, there exists a K\"ahler-Ricci flow which converges to the K\"ahler-Einstein metric of the central fiber. As an…

We continue studying a parabolic flow of almost K\"{a}hler structures introduced by Streets and Tian which naturally extends K\"{a}hler-Ricci flow onto symplectic manifolds. In the system of primarily the symplectic form, almost complex…

We consider the Ricci flow for simply connected nilmanifolds, which translates to a Ricci flow on the space of nilpotent metric Lie algebras. We consider the evolution of the inner product and the evolution of structure constants, as well…

I discuss certain applications of the Ricci flow in physics. I first review how it arises in the renormalization group (RG) flow of a nonlinear sigma model. I then review the concept of a Ricci soliton and recall how a soliton was used to…

The Ricci iteration is a discrete analogue of the Ricci flow. According to Perelman, the Ricci flow converges to a Kahler-Einstein metric whenever one exists, and it has been conjectured that the Ricci iteration should behave similarly.…

Let $(M,\overline{g})$ be a K\"ahler surface, and $\Sigma$ an immersed surface in $M$. The K\"ahler angle of $\Sigma$ in $M$ is introduced by Chern-Wolfson \cite{CW}. Let $(M,\overline{g}(t))$ evolve along the K\"ahler-Ricci flow, and…
