For each $n\ge 3$, we construct a 'pancake-like', $O(2)\times O(n-1)$-invariant ancient Ricci flow with positive curvature operator and bounded "girth", and we determine its asymptotic limits backwards in time. This solution is new even in…

We formulate an extension of the Calabi conjecture to the setting of generalized K\"ahler geometry. We show a transgression formula for the Bismut Ricci curvature in this setting, which requires a new local Goto/Kodaira-Spencer deformation…

We show that every convex ancient solution of mean curvature flow with Type I curvature growth is either spherical, cylindrical, or planar. We then prove the corresponding statement for flows by a natural class of curvature functions which…

The Ricci iteration is a discrete analogue of the Ricci flow. We give the first study of the Ricci iteration on a class of Riemannian manifolds that are not K\"ahler. The Ricci iteration in the non-K\"ahler setting exhibits new phenomena.…

In our previous work we showed that for an ancient solution to the Ricci flow with nonnegative curvature operator, assuming bounded geometry on one time slice, bounded entropy implies noncollapsing on all scales. In this paper we prove the…

We show that the K\"ahler-Ricci flow on a manifold with positive first Chern class converges to a K\"ahler-Einstein metric assuming positive bisectional curvature and certain stability conditions.

We show uniqueness of Ricci flows starting at a surface of uniformly negative curvature, with the assumption that the flows become complete instantaneously. Together with the more general existence result proved in [10], this settles the…
