We consider smooth solutions (M,g(t)), 0 <= t <T, to Ricci flow on compact, connected, four dimensional manifolds without boundary. We assume that the scalar curvature is bounded uniformly, and that T is finite. In this case, we show that…
Let $Z_2\times Z_2=\{0, \alpha, \beta, \alpha+\beta\}$. If $G$ is a bridgeless cubic graph, $F$ is a perfect matching of $G$ and $\overline{F}$ is the complementary 2-factor of $F$, then a no-where zero $Z_2\times Z_2$-flow $\theta$ of…
We study solutions to generalized Ricci flow on four-manifolds with a nilpotent, codimension $1$ symmetry. We show that all such flows are immortal, and satisfy type III curvature and diameter estimates. Using a new kind of monotone energy…
We give a compact variation of Seymour's proof that every $2$-edge-connected graph has a nowhere-zero $\mathbb{Z}_2 \times \mathbb{Z}_3$-flow.
In this paper we study $n$-dimensional Ricci flows $(M^n,g(t))_{t\in [0,T)},$ where $T< \infty$ is a potentially singular time, and for which the spatial $L^p$ norm, $p>\frac n 2$, of the scalar curvature is uniformly bounded on $[0,T).$ In…
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…
Let $(M,g)$ be a complete, connected, non-compact Riemannian three-manifold with non-negative Ricci curvature satisfying $Ric\geq\varepsilon\,\operatorname{tr}(Ric)\,g$ for some $\varepsilon>0$. In this note, we give a new proof based on…
The paper characterizes $(2t+1)$-regular graphs with circular flow number $2 + \frac{2}{2t-1}$. For $t=1$ this is Tutte's characterization of cubic graphs with flow number 4. The class of cubic graphs is the only class of odd regular graphs…
Let $G$ be a graph. A zero-sum flow of $G$ is an assignment of non-zero real numbers to the edges of $G$ such that the sum of the values of all edges incident with each vertex is zero. Let $k$ be a natural number. A zero-sum $k$-flow is a…
We investigate the time-complexity of the All-Pairs Max-Flow problem: Given a graph with $n$ nodes and $m$ edges, compute for all pairs of nodes the maximum-flow value between them. If Max-Flow (the version with a given source-sink pair…
We write general and explicit equations which solve the supersymmetry transformations with two arbitrary complex-proportional Weyl spinors on $\mathcal{N}=1$ supersymmetric type IIB strings backgrounds with all R-R $F_1$, $F_3$, $F_5$ and…
Building on recently established enumerative connections between lambda calculus and the theory of embedded graphs (or "maps"), this paper develops an analogy between typing (of lambda terms) and coloring (of maps). Our starting point is…
Let $G$ be a bridgeless cubic graph, and $\mu_2(G)$ the minimum number $k$ such that two 1-factors of $G$ intersect in $k$ edges. A cyclically $n$-edge-connected cubic graph $G$ has a nowhere-zero 5-flow if (1) $n \geq 6$ and $\mu_2(G) \leq…
Motivated by bit threads, we introduce a new prescription for computing entropy vectors outside the holographic entropy cone. By utilizing cycle flows on directed graphs, we show that the maximum cycle flow associated to any subset of…
A graph (digraph) $G=(V,E)$ with a set $T\subseteq V$ of terminals is called inner Eulerian if each nonterminal node $v$ has even degree (resp. the numbers of edges entering and leaving $v$ are equal). Cherkassky and Lov\'asz showed that…
By studying the weak closure of multidimensional off-diagonal self-joinings we provide a criterion for non-isomorphism of a flow with its inverse, hence the non-reversibility of a flow. This is applied to special flows over rigid…
Let G=(V,E) be a simple undirected graph. For a given set L of the real line, a function omega from E to L is called an L-flow. Given a vector gamma whose coordinates are indexed by V, we say that omega is a gamma-L-flow if for each v in V,…
The central result about fast rotating-flow structures is the Taylor-Proudman theorem (TPT) which connects various aspects of the dynamics. Taylor's geometrical proof of TPT is reproduced and extended substantially, with Lie's theory for…
Inspired by work of Besson-Courtois-Gallot, we construct a flow called the natural flow on a non-positively curved Riemannian manifold $M$. As with the natural map, the $k$-Jacobian of the natural flow is directly related to the critical…
