The topology change in quantum gravity is modeled by a Ricci flow. In this approach we offer to consider the Ricci flow as a statistical system. The metric in the Ricci flow enumerated by a parameter $\lambda$ is a microscopical statistical…

We study the dynamics of skyrmions under spin-transfer torque in Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya materials with easy-axis anisotropy. In particular, we study the motion of a topological skyrmion with skyrmion number $Q=1$ and a non-topological…

In this paper we prove a compactness result for Ricci flows with bounded scalar curvature and entropy. It states that given any sequence of such Ricci flows, we can pass to a subsequence that converges to a metric space which is smooth away…

According to Rayleigh's criterion, rotating flows are linearly stable when their specific angular momentum increases radially outward. The celebrated magnetorotational instability opens a way to destabilize those flows, as long as the…

In simple fluids, such as water, invariance under parity and time-reversal symmetry imposes that the rotation of constituent 'atoms' are determined by the flow and that viscous stresses damp motion. Activation of the rotational degrees of…

We revisit the collective modes of chiral matter described by the second-order chiral hydrodynamics, noticing that chiral shear waves (CSWs) may become unstable for momenta above a characteristic scale. In the absence of sufficient…

We study Dirac spinors in Bianchi type-I cosmological models, within the framework of torsional $f(R)$-gravity. We find four types of results: the resulting dynamic behavior of the universe depends on the particular choice of function…
