We prove that at a finite singular time for the Harmonic Ricci Flow on a surface of positive genus both the energy density of the map component and the curvature of the domain manifold have to blow up simultaneously. As an immediate…
In this paper we consider the Ricci flow on manifolds with boundary with appropriate control on its mean curvature and conformal class. We obtain higher order estimates for the curvature and second fundamental form near the boundary,…

We establish the short-time existence of the Ricci flow on surfaces with a finite number of conic points, all with cone angle between 0 and $2\pi$, where the cone angles remain fixed or change in some smooth prescribed way. For the…
We prove a general existence result for instantaneously complete Ricci flows starting at an arbitrary Riemannian surface which may be incomplete and may have unbounded curvature. We give an explicit formula for the maximal existence time,…

We construct a class of monotonic quantities along the normalized Ricci flow on closed n-dimensional manifolds.
We give a complete description of the global existence and convergence for the Ricci-Yang-Mills flow on $T^k$ bundles over Riemann surfaces. These results equivalently describe solutions to generalized Ricci flow and pluriclosed flow with…
Here, we study the existence and uniqueness of solutions to the Ricci flow on Finsler surfaces and show short time existence of solutions for such flows. To this purpose, we first study the Finslerian Ricci-DeTurck flow on Finsler surfaces…
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 introduce a dynamical energy functional on compact ancient asymptotically Ricci-flat Ricci flows with modest decay using limits of conjugate heat flows. This functional satisfies a steady Ricci breather-type rigidity and provides an…
In this paper, we give a sufficient condition such that the Ricci flow in $R^2$ exists globally and the flow converges at $t=\infty$ to the flat metric on $R^2$.
We give a proof of the fact that the upper and the lower sectional curvature bounds of a complete manifold vary at a bounded rate under the Ricci flow.
Utilizing a splitting of geometric flows on surfaces introduced by Buzano and Rupflin, we present a general scheme to prove blow up criteria for such geometric flows. A vital ingredient is a new compactness theorem for families of metrics…
In this paper, we introduce a new notion of curvature on the edges of a graph that is defined in terms of effective resistances. We call this the Ricci--Foster curvature. We study the Ricci flow resulting from this curvature. We prove the…
The stability of a recently developed piecewise flat Ricci flow is investigated, using a linear stability analysis and numerical simulations, and a class of piecewise flat approximations of smooth manifolds is adapted to avoid an inherent…
The main purpose of this note is to construct two functionals of the positive solutions to the conjugate heat equation associated to the metrics evolving by the conformal Ricci flow on closed manifolds. We show that they are nondecreasing…

We describe the Ricci flow on two classes of compact three-dimensional manifolds: 1. Warped products with a circle fiber over a two-dimensional base. 2. Manifolds with a free local isometric U(1) x U(1) action.
In this paper, we study the (normalized) Ricci flow on surfaces with conical singularities. Long time existence is proved for cone angle smaller than $2\pi$. In this case, convergence results are obtained if the Euler number is nonpositive.
