In this paper, we introduce a new combinatorial curvature on triangulated surfaces with inversive distance circle packing metrics. Then we prove that this combinatorial curvature has global rigidity. To study the Yamabe problem of the new…
In this note, we study the problem of uniqueness of Ricci flow on complete noncompact manifolds. We consider the class of solutions with curvature bounded above by C/t when t > 0. In paricular, we proved uniqueness if in addition the…

In this article, we study the higher-order regularity of the K\"ahler-Ricci flow on compact K\"ahler manifolds with semi-ample canonical line bundle. We proved, using a parabolic analogue of Hein-Tosatti's work on collapsing Calabi-Yau…
We report on some recent progress achieved in [arXiv:2111.14811] on the ergodicity of the frame flow of negatively-curved Riemannian manifolds. We explain the new ideas leading to ergodicity for nearly $0.25$-pinched manifolds and give…
In this paper, we mainly study the mean curvature flow in K\"ahler surfaces with positive holomorphic sectional curvatures. We prove that if the ratio of the maximum and the minimum of the holomorphic sectional curvatures is less than 2,…
In this work, we prove uniqueness for complete non-compact Ricci flow with scaling invariant curvature bound. This generalizes the earlier work of Chen-Zhu, Kotschwar and covers most of the example of Ricci flows with unbounded curvature.…
A new two-dimensional model for blood flows in arteries with arbitrary cross sections is derived. The model consists of a system of balance laws for conservation of mass and balance of momentum in the axial and angular directions. The…
We define regularity scales to study the behavior of the Calabi flow. Based on estimates of the regularity scales, we obtain convergence theorems of the Calabi flow on extremal Kahler surfaces, under the assumption of global existence of…
Using a recently developed piecewise flat method, numerical evolutions of the Ricci flow are computed for a number of manifolds, using a number of different mesh types, and shown to converge to the expected smooth behaviour as the mesh…
Curvature squared terms are added to a consistent formulation of supergravity on manifolds with boundary which is meant to represent the low energy limit of the strongly coupled heterotic string. These terms are necessary for the…
This is the second part of a series of papers analyzing the long-time behaviour of 3 dimensional Ricci flows with surgery. We generalize the methods developed in the first part and use them to treat cases in which the initial manifold…
In this work, we use the Ricci flow approach to study the gap phenomenon of Riemannian manifolds with non-negative curvature and sub-critical scaling invariant curvature decay. The first main result is a quantitative Ricci flow existence…
This article consists of some loosely related remarks about the geometry of G_2-structures on 7-manifolds and is partly based on old unpublished joint work with two other people: F. Reese Harvey and Steven Altschuler. Much of this work has…
In this paper we introduce a new geometric flow with rotational invariance and prove that, under this kind of flow, an arbitrary smooth closed contractible hypersurface in the Euclidean space Rn+1 (n, 1) converges to Sn in the C1-topology…
We investigated the nonlinear effects of gravity-driven fluid flow through a two-dimensional, low-porosity, packed bed of stubby stone grains. We focused on preferential channel formation, tortuosity, spatial distribution of kinetic energy,…
In general relativity, there have been a number of successful constructions for asymptotically flat metrics with a certain background foliation. In particular, C. -Y. Lin used a foliation by the Ricci flow on 2-spheres to establish an…
In this paper, we introduce a framework of $(\alpha,\beta)$-flows on triangulated manifolds with two and three dimensions, which unifies several discrete curvature flows previously defined in the literature.
The Swampland Distance Conjecture postulates the emergence of an infinite tower of massless states when approaching infinite-distance points in moduli space. However, most string backgrounds are supported by fluxes, and therefore depart…
This paper initiates a classification programme of flows of $\mathrm{SU}(2)$-structures on $4$-manifolds which have short-time existence and uniqueness. Our approach adapts a representation-theoretic method originally due to Bryant in the…
