We show that every $n$-dimensional, $\kappa$-noncollapsed, noncompact, complete ancient solution to the Ricci flow with uniformly PIC for $n=4$ or $n\ge 12$ has weakly PIC$_2$ and bounded curvature. Combining this with earlier results, we…

We present a notion of super Ricci flow for time-dependent finite weighted graphs. A challenging feature is that these flows typically encounter singularities where the underlying graph structure changes. Our notion is robust enough to…

We establish the scalar curvature and distance bounds, extending Perelman's work on the Fano K\"ahler-Ricci flow to general finite time solutions of the K\"ahler-Ricci flow. These bounds are achieved by our Li-Yau type and Harnack estimates…

We present two characterizations of smooth compact Ricci flow solutions solely in terms of metrics and measures (one of them only works under positive scalar curvature along the flow); thus, provide weak formulations that are generalized to…

Ancient solutions arise in the study of Ricci flow singularities. Motivated by the work of Fateev on 3-dimensional ancient solutions we construct high dimensional ancient solutions to Ricci flow on spheres and complex projective spaces as…

The Chern-Ricci flow is an evolution equation of Hermitian metrics by their Chern-Ricci form, first introduced by Gill. Building on our previous work, we investigate this flow on complex surfaces. We establish new estimates in the case of…

We announce a new proof of the uniform estimate on the curvature of solutions to the Ricci flow on a compact K\"ahler manifold $M^n$ with positive bisectional curvature. In contrast to the recent work of X. Chen and G. Tian, our proof of…

We develop a theory of Ricci flow for metrics on Courant algebroids which unifies and extends the analytic theory of various geometric flows, yielding a general tool for constructing solutions to supergravity equations. We prove short time…

Recently, we have studied evolution of a family of Finsler metrics along Finsler Ricci flow and proved its convergence in short time. Here, existence of solutions to the so called Hamilton Ricci flow on Finsler spaces is studied and a short…

In 2011 Enders, M\"{u}ller and Topping showed that any blow up sequence of a Type I Ricci flow near a singular point converges to a non-trivial gradient Ricci soliton, leading them to conclude that for such flows all reasonable definitions…

In this paper, we study the behavior of Ricci flows on compact orbifolds with finite singularities. We show that Perelman's pseudolocality theorem also holds on orbifold Ricci flow. Using this property, we obtain a weak compactness theorem…

This paper is the sequel to our study of heat kernels on Ricci shrinkers in \cite{LW20}. In this paper, we improve many estimates in \cite{LW20} and extend the recent progress of Bamler \cite{Bam20a}. In particular, we drop the compactness…
