Smooth metric measure spaces have been studied from the two different perspectives of Bakry-\'Emery and Chang-Gursky-Yang, both of which are closely related to work of Perelman on the Ricci flow. These perspectives include a generalization…

We consider a compact, star-shaped, mean convex hypersurface $\Sigma^2\subset \mathbb{R}^3$. We prove that in some cases the flow exists until it shrinks to a point in a spherical manner, which is very typical for convex surfaces as well…

The Ricci iteration is a discrete analogue of the Ricci flow. According to Perelman, the Ricci flow converges to a Kahler-Einstein metric whenever one exists, and it has been conjectured that the Ricci iteration should behave similarly.…

We consider Ricci flow on a closed surface with cone points. The main result is: given a (nonsmooth) cone metric g_0 over a closed surface there is a smooth Ricci flow g(t) defined for (0,T], with curvature unbounded above, such that g(t)…

We consider the local solution to the Calabi flow for C^\alpha initial metric. We also prove that the Calabi flow on compact Kaehler surfaces can be extended once the metrics along the flow are bounded in L^\infty sense. This can be viewed…

In this paper, we show that starting from a geodesic ball $\overline{B_{r_0}}(0)$ in $\mathbb{H}^n$, for $n\geq3$, with prescribed non-decreasing rotationally symmetric mean curvature and the fixed conformal class $[g_{\mathbb{S}^{n-1}}]$…

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…
