We prove a rigidity result for non-negative scalar curvature perturbations of the Euclidean metric on $\mathbb{R^n}$ , which may be regarded as a weak version of the rigidity statement of the positive mass theorem. We prove our result by…

It is well known that the K\"ahler-Ricci flow on a K\"ahler manifold $X$ admits a long-time solution if and only if $X$ is a minimal model, i.e., the canonical line bundle $K_X$ is nef. The abundance conjecture in algebraic geometry…

In this paper we will give a simple proof of a modification of a result on pseudolocality for the Ricci flow by P.Lu without using the pseudolocality theorem 10.1 of Perelman [P1]. We also obtain an extension of a result of Hamilton on the…

Based on Donaldson's method, we prove that, for an integral Kahler class, when there is a Kahler metric of constant scalar curvature, then it minimizes the K-energy. We do not assume that the automorphism group is discrete.

B Wilking has recently shown that one can associate a Ricci flow invariant cone of curvature operators $C(S)$, which are nonnegative in a suitable sense, to every $Ad_{SO(n,\C)}$ invariant subset $S \subset {\bf so}(n,\C)$. For curvature…

The geometric evolution equations provide new ways to address a variety of non-linear problems in Riemannian geometry, and, at the same time, they enjoy numerous physical applications, most notably within the renormalization group analysis…

In this paper we prove the compactness result for compact K\"ahler Ricci gradient shrinking solitons. If $(M_i,g_i)$ is a sequence of K\"ahler Ricci solitons of real dimension $n \ge 4$, whose curvatures have uniformly bounded $L^{n/2}$…

It is observed that for complex surfaces, the positivity of the Ricci curvature is preserved by the K\"ahler-Ricci flow, under the additional assumption that the sum of the two lowest eigenvalues of the traceless curvature operator is…
