According to DiPerna-Lions theory, velocity fields with weak derivatives in $L^p$ spaces possess weakly regular flows. When a velocity field is perturbed by a white noise, the corresponding (stochastic) flow is far more regular in spatial…

In this article, we prove a local Sobolev inequality for complete Ricci flows. Our main result is that the local $\nu$-functional of a disk on a Ricci flow depends only on the Nash entropy based at the center of the disk, and consequently…
