The second author and H. Yin have developed a Ricci flow existence theory that gives a complete Ricci flow starting with a surface equipped with a conformal structure and a nonatomic Radon measure as a volume measure. This led to the…
In this paper we provide an algorithm which given any $m$-edge $n$-vertex directed graph with integer capacities at most $U$ computes a maximum $s$-$t$ flow for any vertices $s$ and $t$ in $m^{4/3+o(1)}U^{1/3}$ time. This improves upon the…
We establish the Gauss-Green formula for extended divergence-measure fields (i.e., vector-valued measures whose distributional divergences are Radon measures) over open sets. We prove that, for almost every open set, the normal trace is a…
In this note we propose to show that the K\"ahler-Ricci flow fits naturally within the context of the Minimal Model Program for projective varieties. In particular we show that the flow detects, in finite time, the contraction theorem of…
Liv\v{s}ic theorem for flows asserts that a Lipschitz observable that has zero mean average along every periodic orbit is necessarily a coboundary, that is the Lie derivative of a Lipschitz function smooth along the flow direction. The…
We study time- and parameter-dependent ordinary differential equations in the geometric setting of vector fields and their flows. Various degrees of regularities in state are considered, including Lipschitz, finitely diferentiable, smooth,…
We study the elephant random walk in arbitrary dimension $d\geq 1$. Our main focus is the limiting random variable appearing in the superdiffusive regime. Building on a link between the elephant random walk and P\'olya-type urn models, we…
The motion of rarefied gases for uniform shear flow at the kinetic level is governed by the spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation with a deformation force. In the paper we study the corresponding Cauchy problem with initial data of…
We show the existence of a global unique and analytic solution for the mean curvature flow, the surface diffusion flow and the Willmore flow of entire graphs for Lipschitz initial data with small Lipschitz norm. We also show the existence…
We face the well-posedness of linear transport Cauchy problems $$\begin{cases}\dfrac{\partial u}{\partial t} + b\cdot\nabla u + c\,u = f&(0,T)\times{\mathbb R}^n\\u(0,\cdot)=u_0\in L^\infty&{\mathbb R}^n\end{cases}$$ under borderline…
Identifying any conformally round metric on the $2$-sphere with a unique cross section on the standard lightcone in the $3+1$-Minkowski spacetime, we gain a new perspective on $2d$-Ricci flow on topological spheres. It turns out that in…
Cauchy invariants are now viewed as a powerful tool for investigating the Lagrangian structure of three-dimensional (3D) ideal flow (Frisch & Zheligovsky, Commun. Math. Phys., vol. 326, 2014, pp. 499-505, Podvigina et al., J. Comput. Phys.,…
We consider null mean curvature flow along the standard lightcone in the de Sitter spacetime. This flow was first studied by Roesch--Scheuer along null hypersurfaces for the detection of MOTS, and independently by the author in the specific…
We consider the evolution of an incompressible two-dimensional perfect fluid as the boundary of its domain is deformed in a prescribed fashion. The flow is taken to be initially steady, and the boundary deformation is assumed to be slow…
It is known that the Eulerian and Lagrangian structures of fluid flow can be drastically different; for example, ideal fluid flow can have a trivial (static) Eulerian structure, while displaying chaotic streamlines. Here we show that ideal…
The usual heat equation is not suitable to preserve the topology of divergence-free vector fields, because it destroys their integral line structure. On the contrary, in the fluid mechanics literature, on can find examples of…
We link regularity and smoothness analysis of multivariate vector subdivision schemes with network flow theory and with special linear optimization problems. This connection allows us to prove the existence of what we call optimal…
We prove existence, uniqueness and several qualitative properties for evolution equations that combine local and nonlocal diffusion operators acting in different subdomains and coupled in such a way that the resulting evolution equation is…
Unidirectional flow is the simplest phenomenon of fluid mechanics. Its mathematical description, the Dirichlet problem for Poisson's equation in two dimensions with constant forcing, arises in many physical contexts, such as the torsion of…
In this work we study the degree distribution, the maximum vertex and edge flow in non-uniform random Delaunay triangulations when geodesic routing is used. We also investigate the vertex and edge flow in Erd\"os-Renyi random graphs,…
