In this paper, we address the optimization problem of minimizing $Q(df_x)$ over a Hadamard manifold ${\cal M}$, where $f$ is a convex function on ${\cal M}$, $df_x$ is the differential of $f$ at $x \in {\cal M}$, and $Q$ is a function on…

In this paper, we study the prescribed $Q$-curvature flow equation on a arbitrary even dimensional closed Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$, which was introduced by S. Brendle in \cite{B2003}, where he proved the flow exists for long time and…

In this note we extend the main results of [2] and [8], which concern the weak convergence of the $n$-point motions of smooth Harris flows to those of the Arratia flow, to the case when the covariance functions of these Harris flows…
We investigate the low-energy behavior of the gradient flow of the $L^2$ norm of the Riemannian curvature on four-manifolds. Specifically, we show long time existence and exponential convergence to a metric of constant sectional curvature…
We study the curve shortening flow on Riemann surfaces with finitely many conformal conical singularities. If the initial curve is passing through the singular points, then the evolution is governed by a degenerate quasilinear parabolic…
This paper concerns with the asymptotic behavior of complete non-compact convex curves embedded in $\mathbb{R}^2$ under the $\alpha$-curve shortening flow for exponents $\alpha >\frac12$. We show that any such curve having in addition its…

Optimising quantum circuits to minimise resource usage is crucial, especially with near-term hardware limited by quantum volume. This paper introduces an optimisation algorithm aiming to minimise non-Clifford gate count and two-qubit gate…

In this paper, we study the convexity, interior gradient estimate, Liouville type theorem and asymptotic behavior at infinity of translating solutions to mean curvature flow as well as the nonlinear flow by powers of the mean curvature.
