Regarding Ricci flow as a dynamical system, we derive sufficient conditions for noncompact stationary (Ricci-flat) solutions to possess infinite-dimensional unstable manifolds, and provide examples satisfying those criteria that have…
We show that, given an immortal solution to the Ricci flow on a closed manifold with uniformly bounded curvature and diameter, the Ricci tensor goes to zero as t goes to infinity. We also show that if there exists an immortal solution on a…
We establish variational formulas for Ricci upper and lower bounds, as well as a derivative formula for the Ricci curvature. As applications, constant curvature manifolds, Einstein manifolds and Ricci parallel manifolds are identified,…
We present two new conditions to extend the Ricci flow on a compact manifold over a finite time, which are improvements of some known extension theorems.
Given two compact n-dimensional manifolds in the smooth, piecewise linear or topological categories, basic results of B. Mazur and others give simple criteria for determining whether their products with Euclidean spaces of sufficiently…
We survey the implications of our joint work with E. Bru\`e and A. Pigati on the structure of blow-downs for a smooth, complete, Riemannian $4$-manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature and Euclidean volume growth. Very imprecisely, any…
We count the number of conics through two general points in complete intersections when this number is finite and give an application in terms of quasi-lines.
We give a general criterion for the Dirichlet problem at infinity (DPI) on a Cartan-Hadamard surface to be solvable, which we primarily use to give the best possible upper radial radial curvature bound for solvability of the DPI, but which…
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.…
We consider solutions (M,g(t)), 0 <= t <T, to Ricci flow on compact, four dimensional manifolds without boundary. We prove integral curvature estimates which are valid for any such solution. In the case that the scalar curvature is bounded…
We show that a complete Ricci flow of bounded curvature which begins from a manifold with a Ricci lower bound, local entropy bound, and small local scale-invariant integral curvature control will have global point-wise curvature control at…
A tetragonal canonical curve is the complete intersection of two divisors on a scroll. The equations can be written in `rolling factors' format. For such homogeneous ideals we give methods to compute infinitesimal deformations. Deformations…
For any integers $m\geqslant n\geqslant 3$, we construct a Ricci limit space $X_{m,n}$ such that for a fixed point, some tangent cones are $\mathbb{R}^m$ and some are $\mathbb{R}^n$. This is an improvement of Menguy's example. Moreover, we…
In this work, we extend the existence theory of non-collapsed Ricci flows from point-wise curvature lower bound to Kato-type lower bound. As an application, we prove that compact three dimensional non-collapsed strong Kato limit space is…
This paper investigates the short-time existence and uniqueness of Ricci flow solutions on Finsler manifolds. The main results of this paper are theorems demonstrating the short-time existence of the flow solution for $n$-dimensional…
By a classical theorem of Gallot (1979), a Riemannian cone over a complete Riemannian manifold is either flat or has irreducible holonomy. We consider metric cones with reducible holonomy over pseudo-Riemannian manifolds. First we describe…
We prove generalized lower Ricci bounds for Euclidean and spherical cones over compact Riemannian manifolds. These cones are regarded as complete metric measure spaces. We show that the Euclidean cone over an n-dimensional Riemannian…
We show that an expanding gradient Ricci solitons which is asymptotic to a cone at infinity in a certain sense must be rotationally symmetric.
The main objective of this thesis is the study of the evolution under the Ricci flow of surfaces with singularities of cone type. A second objective, emerged from the techniques we use, is the study of families of Ricci flow solitons in…
