We consider the evolution of a Hermitian metric on a compact complex manifold by its Chern-Ricci form. This is an evolution equation first studied by M. Gill, and coincides with the Kahler-Ricci flow if the initial metric is Kahler. We find…

We introduce a new parabolic flow deforming any Riemannian metric on a spin manifold by following a constrained gradient flow of the total scalar curvature. This flow is built out of the well-known Dirac-Einstein functional. We prove local…

We show that for any solution to the K\"ahler-Ricci flow with positive bisectional curvature on a compact K\"ahler manifold $M^n$, the bisectional curvature has a uniform positive lower bound. As a consequence, the solution converges…

We extend the arguments of Tosatti-Zhang to reduce a well-known conjecture concerning the structure of the Gromov-Hausdorff limit in both the setting of degenerating Calabi-Yau manifolds and the K\"ahler-Ricci flow to a certain partial…

Inspired by work of Besson-Courtois-Gallot, we construct a flow called the natural flow on a non-positively curved Riemannian manifold $M$. As with the natural map, the $k$-Jacobian of the natural flow is directly related to the critical…

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…
