In this paper, we give a sufficient condition such that the Ricci flow in $R^2$ exists globally and the flow converges at $t=\infty$ to the flat metric on $R^2$.
In this work, we study and solve the normalized Ricci flow equation for circle bundles over surfaces. Moreover, we study the asymptotic behavior of the solutions and their connections to some model geometries.
The existence of K\"ahler-Einstein metrics on a compact K\"ahler manifold has been the subject of intensive study over the last few decades, following Yau's solution to Calabi's conjecture. The Ricci flow, introduced by Richard Hamilton has…
In this work, we study metrics which are both homogeneous and Ricci soliton. If there exists a transitive solvable group of isometries on a Ricci soliton, we show that it is isometric to a solvsoliton. Moreover, unless the manifold is flat,…
In this paper, we construct a set of new functionals of Ricci curvature on any Kaehler manifolds which are invariant under holomorphic transfermations in Kaehler Einstein manifolds and essentially decreasing under the Kaehler Ricci flow.…
We study the Ricci flow of initial metrics which are C^0-perturbations of the hyperbolic metric on H^n. If the perturbation is bounded in the L^2-sense, and small enough in the C^0-sense, then we show the following: In dimensions four and…
A geometric flow based in the Riemann-Christoffel curvature tensor that in two dimensions has some common features with the usual Ricci flow is presented. For $n$ dimensional spaces this new flow takes into account all the components of the…
This survey reviews some facts about nonnegativity conditions on the curvature tensor of a Riemannian manifold which are preserved by the action of the Ricci flow. The text focuses on two main points. First we describe the known examples of…
In this work, the problem of constructing geometric flow equations that preserve Einstein field equations for the spacetime metric is addressed. After having briefly discussed the main features of Ricci flow, the on-shell flow equations for…
In this paper we prove that there exists a compact perturbation of the Ricci flat Taub-Bolt metric that evolves under the Ricci flow into a finite time singularity modelled on the shrinking solition FIK [5]. Moreover, this perturbation can…
We introduce the notions of `super-Ricci flows' and `Ricci flows' for time-dependent families of metric measure spaces $(X,d_t,m_t)_{t\in I}$. The former property is proven to be stable under suitable space-time versions of mGH-convergence.…
We show that the system of vacuum Einstein equations (i.e., Ricci-flat metrics) with two hypersurface-orthogonal, commuting Killing vector fields in $d \ge 5$ dimensions is invariant under the action of a one-parameter Lie group, and the…
This is the second paper in a series of works devoted to nonholonomic Ricci flows. By imposing non-integrable (nonholonomic) constraints on the Ricci flows of Riemannian metrics we can model mutual transforms of generalized Finsler-Lagrange…
We discuss some classification results for Ricci solitons, that is, self similar solutions of the Ricci Flow. Some simple proofs of known results will be presented. In detail, we will take the equation point of view, trying to avoid the…
The fixed points of the generalized Ricci flow are the Bismut Ricci flat metrics, i.e., a generalized metric $(g,H)$ on a manifold $M$, where $g$ is a Riemannian metric and $H$ a closed $3$-form, such that $H$ is $g$-harmonic and…
In this paper, we study the Ricci flow on a closed manifold and finite time interval $[0,T)~(T < \infty)$ on which certain integral curvature energies are finite. We prove that in dimension four, such flow converges to a smooth Riemannian…
Within vacuum Weyl gravity, we obtain a solution by which, using different choices of the conformal factor, we derive metrics describing (i)~a bounce of the universe; (ii)~toroidal and spherical wormholes; and (iii)~a change in metric…
In this paper, we prove the existence of an ancient solution to the Ricci flow whose limit at $t=-\infty$ is the Euclidean Schwarzschild metric.
On a smooth closed Riemannian manifold, we show short time existence of smooth solutions to the $(\alpha,\beta)$-Ricci-Yamabe flow, which is a natural generalization of the Ricci flow and the Yamabe flow. We also establish some long time…
In this paper, we study the class of Finsler metrics, namely (\alpha, \beta)- metrics, which satisfies the un-normal or normal Ricci flow equation.
