Let C be a cone in the space of algebraic curvature tensors. Moreover, let (M,g) be a compact Einstein manifold with the property that the curvature tensor of (M,g) lies in the cone C at each point on M. We show that (M,g) has constant…
Discrete forms of the scalar, sectional and Ricci curvatures are constructed on simplicial piecewise flat triangulations of smooth manifolds, depending directly on the simplicial structure and a choice of dual tessellation. This is done by…
We show that the norm of the Riemann curvature tensor of any smooth solution to the Ricci flow can be explicitly estimated in terms of its initial values on a given ball, a local uniform bound on the Ricci tensor, and the elapsed time. This…
In this paper we consider a Ricci de Turck flow of spaces with isolated conical singularities, which preserves the conical structure along the flow. We establish that a given initial regularity of Ricci curvature is preserved along the…
In this paper we give an explicit bound of $\Delta_{g(t)}u(t)$ and the local curvature estimates for the Ricci-harmonic flow under the condition that the Ricci curvature is bounded along the flow. In the second part these local curvature…
We show $L^1$-bounds of the Riemann curvature tensor on a smooth closed $n$-dimensional Ricci flow. To achieve this we introduce the notion of a neck of maximal symmetry, similar to the one in Cheeger-Jiang-Naber and Jiang-Naber and…
We prove a general result about the short time existence and uniqueness of second order geometric flows transverse to a Riemannian foliation on a compact manifold. Our result includes some flows already existing in literature, as the…
We prove the uniqueness of solutions of the Ricci flow on complete noncompact manifolds with bounded curvatures using the De Turck approach. As a consequence we obtain a correct proof of the existence of solution of the Ricci harmonic flow…
Final version in paper linked above.
We establish a short-time existence theory for complete Ricci flows under scaling-invariant curvature bounds, starting from rotationally symmetric metrics on $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ that are noncollapsed at infinity, without assuming bounded…
We prove a general existence result for instantaneously complete Ricci flows starting at an arbitrary Riemannian surface which may be incomplete and may have unbounded curvature. We give an explicit formula for the maximal existence time,…
We prove that the Ricci flow for complete metrics with bounded geometry depends continuously on initial conditions for finite time with no loss of regularity. This relies on our recent work where sectoriality for the generator of the…
In this note we attempt to propose a categorical framework for the Ricci flow, treating it as a sequence of functors connecting the stack of Riemannian metrics to the category of geometric decompositions via singular flow spacetimes. To…
Expository observation on the $\mu$-invariant of singularity models for Ricci Flow.
A flow of metrics, $g_t$, on a manifold is a solution of a differential equation $\dt g = S(g)$, where a geometric functional $S(g)$ is a symmetric $(0,2)$-tensor usually related to some kind of curvature. The mixed sectional curvature of a…
It is observed that for complex surfaces, the positivity of the Ricci curvature is preserved by the K\"ahler-Ricci flow, under the additional assumption that the sum of the two lowest eigenvalues of the traceless curvature operator is…
In this paper, for a given compact 3-manifold with an initial Riemannian metric and a symmetric tensor, we establish the short-time existence and uniqueness theorem for extension of cross curvature flow. We give an example of this flow on…
In this paper, we firstly establish an Interpolating curvature invariance between the well known nonnegative and 2-non-negative curvature invariant along the Ricci flow. Then a related strong maximum principle for the $(\lambda_1,…
We give biLipschitz models for the Ricci flow on some 4-manifolds (minimal surfaces of general type), exhibiting a combination of expanding and static behavior.
