We prove that on Fano manifolds, the K\"ahler-Ricci flow produces a "most destabilising" degeneration, with respect to a new stability notion related to the H-functional. This answers questions of Chen-Sun-Wang and He. We give two…

In our previous paper math.DG/0010008, we develop some new techniques in attacking the convergence problems for the K\"ahler Ricci flow. The one of main ideas is to find a set of new functionals on curvature tensors such that the Ricci flow…

We study some estimates along the Kahler Ricci flow on Fano manifolds. Using these estimates, we show the convergence of Kahler Ricci flow directly if the $\alpha$-invariant of the canonical class is greater than $\frac{n}{n+1}$. Applying…

Let $F$ be a left invariant Randers metric on a simply connected nilpotent Lie group $N$, induced by a left invariant Riemannian metric ${\hat{\textbf{\textit{a}}}}$ and a vector field $X$ which is…

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…

Ricci curvature and Ricci flow have proven to be powerful tools for analyzing the geometry of discrete structures, particularly on undirected graphs, where they have been applied to tasks ranging from community detection to graph…

Recently, we have studied evolution of a family of Finsler metrics along Finsler Ricci flow and proved its convergence in short time. Here, evolution equation of the reduced $hh$-curvature and the Ricci scalar along the Finslerian Ricci…

This paper investigates the question of stability for a class of Ricci flows which start at possibly non-smooth metric spaces. We show that if the initial metric space is Reifenberg and locally bi-Lipschitz to Euclidean space, then two…

This is the first of a series of papers on the long-time behavior of 3 dimensional Ricci flows with surgery. In this paper we first fix a notion of Ricci flows with surgery, which will be used in this and the following three papers. Then we…

For homogeneous metrics on the spaces of the title it is shown that the Ricci flow can move a metric of stricly positive sectional curvature to one with some negative sectional curvature and one of positive definite Ricci tensor to one with…

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 prove a curvature pinching result for the Ricci flow on asymptotically flat manifolds: if an asymptotically flat manifold of dimension $n\geq 3$ has scale-invariant integral norm of curvature sufficiently pinched relative to the inverse…

We prove that the Ricci flow for complete metrics with bounded geometry depends continuously on initial conditions for finite time with no loss of regularity. This relies on our recent work where sectoriality for the generator of the…

We consider the evolution of the asymptotically hyperbolic mass under the curvature-normalized Ricci flow of asymptotically hyperbolic, conformally compactifiable manifolds. In contrast to asymptotically flat manifolds, for which ADM mass…

In this expository note, we study the second variation of Perelman's entropy on the space of Kahler metrics at a K\"ahler-Ricci soliton. We prove that the entropy is stable in the sense of variations. In particular, Perelman's entropy is…

If we want to deform a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary using Ricci flow, we first need to decide on appropriate boundary conditions. We would like these conditions to reflect the geometric nature of the flow and allow for a…

In this work, we use the Ricci flow approach to study the gap phenomenon of Riemannian manifolds with non-negative curvature and sub-critical scaling invariant curvature decay. The first main result is a quantitative Ricci flow existence…

The fixed points of the generalized Ricci flow are the Bismut Ricci flat metrics, i.e., a generalized metric $(g,H)$ on a manifold $M$, where $g$ is a Riemannian metric and $H$ a closed $3$-form, such that $H$ is $g$-harmonic and…

In this paper, we study the Ricci flow of solvmanifolds whose Lie algebra has an abelian ideal of codimension one, by using the bracket flow. We prove that solutions to the Ricci flow are immortal, the omega-limit of bracket flow solutions…

Some modification of the old version.In this note we give a proof of a result which is related to Perelman's theorem in Section 10.3 of the paper "The entropy formula for the Ricci flow and its geometric applications".
