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…

In this work, we investigate diffeomorphisms whose positiveness of topological entropy is destroyed by singular suspensions. We show that this phenomenon is rare in the set of $C^1$-diffeomorphisms. Precisely, we prove that for an open and…

The paper characterizes $(2t+1)$-regular graphs with circular flow number $2 + \frac{2}{2t-1}$. For $t=1$ this is Tutte's characterization of cubic graphs with flow number 4. The class of cubic graphs is the only class of odd regular graphs…

We prove that every factor map between topological flows preserves the standard shadowing property if it is injective except for a closed orbit that shrinks to a singularity. As an application, we construct a $C^\infty$-flow on a…

We study the Ricci flow on $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, with $n\geq 2$, starting at some complete bounded curvature rotationally symmetric metric $g_{0}$. We first focus on the case where $(\mathbb{R}^{n+1},g_{0})$ does not contain minimal…

In this paper, we study the (normalized) Ricci flow on surfaces with conical singularities. Long time existence is proved for cone angle smaller than $2\pi$. In this case, convergence results are obtained if the Euler number is nonpositive.

We consider a variational scheme for the anisotropic (including crystalline) mean curvature flow of sets with strictly positive anisotropic mean curvature. We show that such condition is preserved by the scheme, and we prove the strict…

Let $M$ be a differentiable manifold endowed locally with two complementary distributions, say horizontal and vertical. We consider the two subgroups of (local) diffeomorphisms of $M$ generated by vector fields in each of of these…

We describe all possible topological structures of typical one-parameter bifurcations of gradient flows on the 2-sphere with holes in the case that the number of singular point of flows is at most six. To describe structures, we separatrix…

For topological spaces $X$ and $Y$, a (not necessarily continuous) function $f:X \rightarrow Y$ naturally induces a functor from the category of closed subsets of $X$ (with morphisms given by inclusions) to the category of closed subsets of…

Based on the concept of manifold valued generalized functions we initiate a study of nonlinear ordinary differential equations with singular (in particular: distributional) right hand sides in a global setting. After establishing several…

In this survey we provide an overview of our recent results concerning Ricci de Turck flow on spaces with isolated conical singularities. The crucial characteristic of the flow is that it preserves the conical singularity. Under certain…

We study the provenance of singularity formation under mean curvature flow and volume preserving mean curvature flow in an axially symmetric setting. We prove that if the mean curvature is uniformly bounded on any finite time interval, then…

There are two distinct regimes commonly used to model traveling waves in stratified water: continuous stratification, where the density is smooth throughout the fluid, and layer-wise continuous stratification, where the fluid consists of…

In this paper, we consider the volume of a special kind of flow polytope. We show that its volume satisfies a certain system of differential equations, and conversely, the solution of the system of differential equations is unique up to a…

Suppose that a countably $n$-rectifiable set $\Gamma_0$ is the support of a multiplicity-one stationary varifold in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ with a point admitting a flat tangent plane $T$ of density $Q \geq 2$. We prove that, under a suitable…

We study the Hull-Strominger system and the Anomaly flow on a special class of 2-step solvmanifolds, namely the class of almost-abelian Lie groups. In this setting, we characterize the existence of invariant solutions to the Hull-Strominger…

We construct, over some minimal translations of the two torus, special flows under a differentiable ceiling function that combine the properties of mixing and rank one.

We study single-loop gradient-flow dynamics for nested optimization, where the outer variable evolves while auxiliary variables track the inner solution map. While existing analyses typically rely on problem- and condition-specific Lyapunov…

We study a class of fourth order curvature flows on a compact Riemannian manifold, which includes the gradient flows of a number of quadratic geometric functionals, as for instance the L2 norm of the curvature. Such flows can develop a…
