We investigate the Chern-Ricci flow, an evolution equation of Hermitian metrics generalizing the Kahler-Ricci flow, on elliptic bundles over a Riemann surface of genus greater than one. We show that, starting at any Gauduchon metric, the…

We show that the normalized K\"ahler-Ricci flow on a compact K\"ahler manifold with semiample canonical bundle converges in the Gromov-Hausdorff topology to the metric completion of the twisted K\"ahler-Einstein metric on the canonical…

We study the Ricci flow on complete Kaehler metrics that live on the complement of a divisor in a compact complex manifold. In earlier work, we considered finite-volume metrics which, at spatial infinity, are transversely hyperbolic. In…

We prove that the Gromov-Hausdorff limit of K\"ahler-Ricci flow on a $\mathbf G$-spherical Fano manifold $X$ is a $\mathbf G$-spherical $\mathbb Q$-Fano variety $X_{\infty}$, which admits a (singular) K\"ahler-Ricci soliton. Moreover, the…

We study the collapsing of Calabi-Yau metrics and of Kahler-Ricci flows on fiber spaces where the base is smooth. We identify the collapsed Gromov-Hausdorff limit of the Kahler-Ricci flow when the divisorial part of the discriminant locus…

We show that a simply-connected closed four-dimensional Ricci flow whose Ricci curvature is uniformly bounded below and whose volume does not approach zero must converge to a $C^{0}$ orbifold at any finite-time singularity, so has an…

We consider the K\"ahler-Ricci flow on compact K\"ahler manifolds with semiample canonical bundle and intermediate Kodaira dimension, and show that the flow collapses to a canonical metric on the base of the Iitaka fibration in the locally…

We study the Hermitian curvature flow of locally homogeneous non-K\"ahler metrics on compact complex surfaces. In particular, we characterize the long-time behavior of the solutions to the flow. We also provide the first example of a…

We consider complete (possibly non-compact) three dimensional Riemannian manifolds (M,g) such that: a) (M,g) is non-collapsed, b) the Ricci curvature of (M,g) is bounded from below, c) the geometry of (M,g) at infinity is not too extreme.…

For all complex dimensions n>=2, we construct complete Kaehler manifolds of bounded curvature and non-negative Ricci curvature whose Kaehler--Ricci evolutions immediately acquire Ricci curvature of mixed sign.

We establish the existence of the K"ahler-Ricci flow on projective varieties with log canonical singularities. This generalizes some of the existence results of Song-Tian \cite{ST3} in case of projective varieties with klt singularities. We…

We study the K\"ahler-Ricci flow on compact K\"ahler manifolds whose canonical bundle is big. We show that the normalized K\"ahler-Ricci flow has long time existence in the viscosity sense, is continuous in a Zariski open set, and converges…

In this note, we show that the solution of K\"ahler-Ricci flow on every Fano threefold from the family No.2.23 in the Mori-Mukai's list develops type II singularity. In fact, we show that no Fano threefold from the family No.2.23 admits…
