In this work we illustrate some well-known facts about the evolution of $S^3$ under the Ricci flow. The Dirac flow we introduce allows us to describe the 4- dimensional metrics with constant curvature. Another new flow leads to the…
As part of the general investigation of Ricci flow on complete surfaces with finite total curvature, we study this flow for surfaces with asymptotically conical (which includes as a special case asymptotically Euclidean) geometries. After…
We study the asymptotic behavior of the K\"ahler-Ricci flow on K\"ahler manifolds of nonnegative holomorphic bisectional curvature. Using these results we prove that a complete noncompact K\"ahler manifold with nonnegative bounded…
The quantum field theory of two-dimensional sigma models with bulk and boundary couplings provides a natural framework to realize and unite different species of geometric flows that are of current interest in mathematics. In particular, the…
A geometric flow based in the Riemann-Christoffel curvature tensor that in two dimensions has some common features with the usual Ricci flow is presented. For $n$ dimensional spaces this new flow takes into account all the components of the…
We investigate the flow of various non-Newtonian fluids through three-dimensional disordered porous media by direct numerical simulation of momentum transport and continuity equations. Remarkably, our results for power-law (PL) fluids…
We prove the convergence of K\"ahler-Ricci flow with some small initial curvature conditions. As applications, we discuss the convergence of K\"ahler-Ricci flow when the complex structure varies on a K\"ahler-Einstein manifold.
In this paper we prove two backward uniqueness theorems for extrinsic geometric flow of possibly non-compact hypersurfaces in general ambient complete Riemannian manifolds. These are applicable to a wide range of extrinsic geometric flow,…
We consider the K\"ahler Ricci flow on a smooth minimal model of general type, we show that if the Ricci curvature is uniformly bounded below along the K\"ahler-Ricci flow, then the diameter is uniformly bounded. As a corollary we show that…
In this article we show that generally almost regular flows, introduced by Bamler and Kleiner, in closed 3-manifolds will either go extinct in finite time or flow to a collection of smooth embedded minimal surfaces, possibly with…
We investigate the influence of dispersed solid spherical particles on the largest scales of the turbulent Arnold-Beltrami-Childress (ABC) flow. The ABC flow is an ideal instance of a complex flow: it does not have solid boundaries, but…
The Hull-Strominger system for supersymmetric vacua of the heterotic string allows general unitary Hermitian connections with torsion and not just the Chern unitary connection. Solutions on unimodular Lie groups exploiting this flexibility…
By studying the weak closure of multidimensional off-diagonal self-joinings we provide a criterion for non-isomorphism of a flow with its inverse, hence the non-reversibility of a flow. This is applied to special flows over rigid…
In this paper we study a generalization of the Kahler-Ricci flow, in which the Ricci form is twisted by a closed, non-negative (1,1)-form. We show that when a twisted Kahler-Einstein metric exists, then this twisted flow converges…
We show the existence of a solution to the Ricci flow with a compact length space of bounded curvature, i.e., a space that has curvature bounded above and below in the sense of Alexandrov, as its initial condition. We show that this flow…
Let $(M^3,g_0)$ be a complete noncompact Riemannian 3-manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature and with injectivity radius bounded away from zero. Suppose that the scalar curvature $R(x)\to 0$ as $x\to \infty$. Then the Ricci flow with…
We show for a non homogeneous boundary value problem for the Ricci flow on the disk that when the initial metric has positive curvature and the boundary is convex then the initial metric is deformed, via the normalized flow and along…
We construct examples of spherical space forms $(S^3/\Gamma,g)$ with positive scalar curvature and containing no stable embedded minimal surfaces, such that the following happens along the Ricci flow starting at $(S^3/\Gamma,g)$: a stable…
We introduce a novel curvature flow, the Heterotic-Ricci flow, as the two-loop renormalization group flow of the Heterotic string common sector and study its three-dimensional compact solitons. The Heterotic-Ricci flow is a coupled…
Anomalous symmetries are known to strongly constrain the possible IR behavior along any renormalization group (RG) flow. Recently, the extension of the notion of symmetry in QFT has provided new types of anomalies with a corresponding new…
