We study Hamiltonian dynamics of gradient Kaehler-Ricci solitons that arise as limits of dilations of singularities of the Ricci flow on compact Kaehler manifolds. Our main result is that the underlying spaces of such gradient solitons must…

We describe the behaviour of the Dirichlet eta function in the critical strip, in terms of the potential flow of an ideal fluid. Using well-known results from complex potential theory and number theory, we show that the Dirichlet eta…

We study the large-j asymptotics of the Euclidean EPRL/FK spin foam amplitude on a 4d simplicial complex with arbitrary number of simplices. We show that for a critical configuration (j_f, g_{ve}, n_{ef}) in general, there exists a…

In this work, we establish a new method to find critical points of differentiable functionals defined in Banach spaces which belong to a suitable class ($\mathcal{J}$) of functionals. Once given a functional $J$ in the class…

In this paper we introduce the branched $\alpha$-flows on closed surfaces with Euler characteristic \(\chi \leq 0\). Based on the strict convexity of the branched $\alpha$-potentials, we establish the long time existence and convergence of…

We consider the K\"ahler-Ricci flow $(X, \omega(t))_{t \in [0,T)}$ on a compact manifold where the time of singularity, $T$, is finite. We assume the existence of a holomorphic map from the K\"ahler manifold $X$ to some analytic variety $Y$…

In the present work we find the Lie point symmetries of the Ricci flow on an $n$-dimensional manifold. and we introduce a method in order to reutilize these symmetries to obtain the Lie point symmetries of particular metrics. We apply this…

Ricci flow is a natural gradient flow of the Einstein-Hilbert action. Here we consider the analog for the Einstein-Maxwell action, which gives Ricci flow with a stress tensor contribution coupled to a Yang-Mills flow for the Maxwell field.…

In this note we prove the following result: Let $X$ be a complete, connected 4-manifold with uniformly positive isotropic curvature, with bounded geometry and with no essential incompressible space form. Then $X$ is diffeomorphic to…

We complete the proof of the Generalized Smale Conjecture, apart from the case of $RP^3$, and give a new proof of Gabai's theorem for hyperbolic 3-manifolds. We use an approach based on Ricci flow through singularities, which applies…

In this note we attempt to propose a categorical framework for the Ricci flow, treating it as a sequence of functors connecting the stack of Riemannian metrics to the category of geometric decompositions via singular flow spacetimes. To…

For collapsing sequences of Riemannian manifolds which satisfy a uniform lower Ricci curvature bound it is shown that there is a sequence of scales such that for a set of good base points of large measure the pointed rescaled manifolds…

We consider the normalized Ricci flow evolving from an initial metric which is conformally compactifiable and asymptotically hyperbolic. We show that there is a unique evolving metric which remains in this class, and that the flow exists up…

We present a synthetic notion of scalar curvature (and its integral) for Riemannian manifolds and metric measure spaces, defined in terms of the initial slope of a Gaussian (double) integral. We explicitly calculate the integral scalar…

Let X be a quasiprojective manifold given by the complement of a divisor $\bD$ with normal crossings in a smooth projective manifold $\bX$. Using a natural compactification of $X$ by a manifold with corners $\tX$, we describe the full…

We give a functional analytical proof of the equality between the Maslov index of a semi-Riemannian geodesic and the spectral flow of the path of self-adjoint Fredholm operators obtained from the index form. This fact, together with recent…

We show that for any solvable Lie group of real type, any homogeneous Ricci flow solution converges in Cheeger-Gromov topology to a unique non-flat solvsoliton, which is independent of the initial left-invariant metric. As an application,…
