We study Ricci flows of some classes of physically valuable solutions in Einstein and string gravity. The anholonomic frame method is applied for generic off-diagonal metric ansatz when the field/ evolution equations are transformed into…
Let us consider a projective manifold and $\Omega$ a volume form. We define the gradient flow associated to the problem of $\Omega$-balanced metrics in the quantum formalism, the \Omega$-balacing flow. At the limit of the quantization, we…
Recently, a new cosmological framework, dubbed Ricci Cosmology, has been proposed. Such a framework has emerged from the study of relativistic dynamics of fluids out of equilibrium in a curved background and is characterised by the presence…
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…
We find exact solutions describing Ricci flows of four dimensional pp-waves nonlinearly deformed by two/three dimensional solitons. Such solutions are parametrized by five dimensional metrics with generic off-diagonal terms and connections…
The Ricci flow is a parabolic evolution equation in the space of Riemannian metrics of a smooth manifold. To some extent, Einstein equations give rise to a similar hyperbolic evolution. The present text is an introductory exposition to…
This note illustrates the Ricci flow method based on the Cao.H.D's paper[1] and Yau.S.T's paper[4], and tries to explain the method in detail, especially in some calculations. Jian Song and Weinkove's note[9] used some other estimates to…
In this note we study conformal Ricci flow introduced by Arthur Fischer. We use DeTurck's trick to rewrite conformal Ricci flow as a strong parabolic-elliptic partial differential equations. Then we prove short time existences for conformal…
We give a global picture of the Ricci flow on the space of three-dimensional, unimodular, nonabelian metric Lie algebras considered up to isometry and scaling. The Ricci flow is viewed as a two-dimensional dynamical system for the evolution…
In this paper, we study the behavior of Ricci-flat K\"{a}hler metrics on Calabi-Yau manifolds under algebraic geometric surgeries: extremal transitions or flops. We prove a version of Candelas and de la Ossa's conjecture: Ricci-flat…
We perform a systematic analysis of flow-like solutions in theories of Einstein gravity coupled to multiple scalar fields, which arise as holographic RG flows as well as in the context of cosmological solutions driven by scalars. We use the…
In the following work, an attempt to conciliate the Ricci flow conjecture and the Cobordism conjecture, stated as refinements of the Swampland distance conjecture and of the No global symmetries conjecture respectively, is presented. This…
By applying the theory of group-invariant solutions we investigate the symmetries of Ricci flow and hyperbolic geometric flow both on Riemann surfaces. The warped products on $\mathcal {S}^{n+1}$ of both flows are also studied.
For some class of geometric flows, we obtain the (logarithmic) Sobolev inequalities and their equivalence up to different factors directly and also obtain the long time non-collapsing and non-inflated properties, which generalize the…
Based on the compactness of the moduli of non-collapsed Calabi-Yau spaces with mild singularities, we set up a structure theory for polarized K\"ahler Ricci flows with proper geometric bounds. Our theory is a generalization of the structure…
