In this paper, we study the geometric aspects of ball packings on $(M,\mathcal{T})$, where $\mathcal{T}$ is a triangulation on a 3-manifold $M$. We introduce a combinatorial Yamabe invariant $Y_{\mathcal{T}}$, depending on the topology of…

In this short note we prove that if the curvature tensor is uniformly bounded along the Calabi flow and the Mabuchi energy is proper, then the flow converges to a constant scalar curvature metric.

We study the Yamabe flow on a Riemannian manifold of dimension $m\geq3$ minus a closed submanifold of dimension $n$ and prove that there exists an instantaneously complete solution if and only if $n>\frac{m-2}{2}$. In the remaining cases…

In this paper, we introduce a new combinatorial curvature on two and three dimensional triangulated manifolds, which transforms in the same way as that of the smooth scalar curvature under scaling of the metric and could be used to…

Let $(M^{n},g,e^{-\phi}dv)$ be a weighted Riemannian manifold evolving by geometric flow $\frac{\partial g}{\partial t}=2h(t),\,\,\,\frac{\partial \phi}{\partial t}=\Delta \phi$. In this paper, we obtain a series of space-time gradient…

In this paper,we prove the following Myers-type theorem: if $(M^n,g)$, $n\geq 3$, is an n-dimensional complete locally conformally flat Riemannian manifold with bounded Ricci curvature satisfying the Ricci pinching condition $Rc\geq…

We study the convergence of complete non-compact conformally flat solutions to the Yamabe flow to Yamabe steady solitons. We also prove the existence of Type II singularities which develop at either a finite time $T$ or as $t \to +\infty$.

We construct a new example of an immortal mean curvature flow of smooth embedded connected surfaces in $\mathbb R^3$, which converges to a plane with multiplicity $2$ as time approaches infinity.

We consider a general curvature equation $F(\kappa)=G(X,\nu(X))$, where $\kappa$ is the principal curvature of the hypersurface $M$ with position vector $X$. It includes the classical prescribed curvature measures problem and area measures…

Let (M,g) be a compact oriented Riemannian manifold with an incomplete edge singularity. This article shows that it is possible to evolve g by the Yamabe flow within a class of singular edge metrics. As the main analytic step we establish…

In this paper, we introduce a class of new logarithmic curvature flow. The flows are designed to embrace the monotonicity of the related functional, and the convergence of this flow would tackle the solvability of the weighted…

Carlotto, Chodosh and Rubinstein have studied the convergence rate of the Yamabe flow. Inspired by their result, we study the convergence rate of the $Q$-curvature flow in this paper. In particular, we provide an example of a slowly…

We study the motion of a droplet evolving by mean curvature with volume constraint and contact angle condition on a half space. We prove the existence of a global-in-time weak solution, called the flat flow. A difficulty arises when we…

A flow of metrics, $g_t$, on a manifold is a solution of a differential equation $\dt g = S(g)$, where a geometric functional $S(g)$ is a symmetric $(0,2)$-tensor usually related to some kind of curvature. The mixed sectional curvature of a…

Let $(M^m,g_M)$ be a closed, connected manifold with positive scalar curvature and $(T^k,g)$ some flat $k$-Torus of unit volume. By a result of F. Dobarro and E. Lami Dozo, there exists a unique $f: M \rightarrow \mathbf{R}_{>0}$ such that…

By using the Yamabe flow, we prove that if $(M^n,g)$, $n\geq3$, is an $n$-dimensional locally conformally flat complete Riemannian manifold $Rc\geq \epsilon Rg>0$, where $\epsilon>0$ is a uniformly constant, then $M^n$ must be compact. Our…

In this paper, we study the existence of global Yamabe flow on asymptotically flat (in short, AF or ALE) manifolds. Note that the ADM mass is preserved in dimensions 3,4 and 5. We present a new general local existence of Yamabe flow on a…

This paper studies the combinatorial Yamabe flow on hyperbolic bordered surfaces. We show that the flow exists for all time and converges exponentially fast to conformal factor which produces a hyperbolic surface whose lengths of boundary…
