The RG-2 flow is the two-loop approximation for the world-sheet non-linear sigma model renormalization group flow. The first truncation of the flow is the well known Ricci flow, at two loops higher order curvature terms appear, changing…

In this article we prove an $\epsilon$-regularity theorem for non-collapsed Ricci flows, and use this to prove new estimates for singularity models of Fano K\"ahler-Ricci flows. In the course of our proof, we find a criterion for uniform…

It is shown that if the Kato constant of the negative part of the Ricci curvature below a positive level is small, then the volume of the corresponding manifold can be bounded above in terms of the Kato constant and the total Ricci…

Along a Ricci flow solution on a closed manifold, we show that if Ricci curvature is uniformly bounded from below, then a scalar curvature integral bound is enough to extend flow. Moreover, this integral bound condition is optimal in some…

In this paper we study collapsing sequences M_{i}-> X of Riemannian manifolds with curvature bounded or bounded away from a controlled subset. We introduce a structure over X which in an appropriate sense is dual to the N-structure of…

We obtain limit theorems (Stable Laws and Central Limit Theorems, both Gaussian and non-Gaussian) and thermodynamic properties for a class of non-uniformly hyperbolic flows: almost Anosov flows, constructed here. The proofs of the limit…

The aim of this paper is to study almost rigidity properties of super Ricci flow whose Muller quantity is non-negative. We conclude almost splitting and quantitative stratification theorems that have been established by Bamler for Ricci…

For $\rho, v>0$, we say that an $n$-manifold $M$ satisfies local $(\rho,v)$-bound Ricci covering geometry, if Ricci curvature $\text{Ric}_M\ge -(n-1)$, and for all $x\in M$, $\text{vol}(B_\rho(\tilde x))\ge v>0$, where $\tilde x$ is an…

This survey reviews some facts about nonnegativity conditions on the curvature tensor of a Riemannian manifold which are preserved by the action of the Ricci flow. The text focuses on two main points. First we describe the known examples of…

We study Riemannian manifolds with boundary under a lower Ricci curvature bound, and a lower mean curvature bound for the boundary. We prove a volume comparison theorem of Bishop-Gromov type concerning the volumes of the metric…

In this work we investigate Ricci flows of almost Kaehler structures on Lie algebroids when the fundamental geometric objects are completely determined by (semi) Riemannian metrics, or effective) regular generating Lagrange/ Finsler,…

In this paper, we study 4-dimensional complete non-compact manifold with its curvature operator in $\mathfrak{C}_{\eta,\mu}$ via Ricci flow. We obtain topological and geometric gap theorems assuming such manifold has maximal volume growth.…

We provide a comparatively simple proof of the dynamical stability of Ricci flow near a linearly stable Ricci-flat ALE metric with integrable deformations. Our proof relies on the equivalence between integrability and an…

We present in this paper a general approach to study the Ricci flow on homogeneous manifolds. Our main tool is a dynamical system defined on a subset H(q,n) of the variety of (q+n)-dimensional Lie algebras, parameterizing the space of all…

We prove that the Ricci flow g(t) starting at any metric on the euclidean space that is invariant by a transitive nilpotent Lie group N, can be obtained by solving an ODE for a curve of nilpotent Lie brackets. By using that this ODE is the…

We consider a closed manifold M with a Riemannian metric g(t) evolving in direction -2S(t) where S(t) is a symmetric two-tensor on (M,g(t)). We prove that if S satisfies a certain tensor inequality, then one can construct a forwards and a…

The Ricci flow has been of fundamental importance in mathematics, most famously though its use as a tool for proving the Poincar\'e Conjecture and Thurston's Geometrization Conjecture. It has a parallel life in physics, arising as the first…

We prove that on ALF $n$-manifolds with $n\ge 4$ the Ricci flow preserves the ALF structure, and develop a weighted Fredholm framework adapted to ALF manifolds. Motivated by Perelman's $\lambda$-functional, we define a renormalized…

The Ricci flow is an evolution system on metrics. For a given metric as initial data, its local existence and uniqueness on compact manifolds was first established by Hamilton \cite{Ha1}. Later on, De Turck \cite{De} gave a simplified…
