In previous work, Angenent, Isenberg, and Knopf created type-II Ricci flow neckpinch singularities. In this paper we construct solutions to Ricci flow whose initial data is the singular metric resulting from these singularities. We show in…
Explicit solutions to the conifold equations with complex dimension $n=3,4$ in terms of {\it{complex coordinates (fields)}} are employed to construct the Ricci-flat K\"{a}hler metrics on these manifolds. The K\"{a}hler 2-forms are found to…
A framework of quantum spacetime reference frame is proposed and reviewed, in which the quantum spacetime at the Gaussian approximation is deformed by the Ricci flow. At sufficient large scale, the Ricci flow not only smooths out local…
We examine, in a purely geometrical way, static Ricci-flat 5-manifolds admitting the 2-sphere and an additional hypersurface-orthogonal Killing vector. These are widely studied in the literature, from different physical approaches, and…
We provide the classification of eternal (or ancient) solutions of the two-dimensional Ricci flow, which is equivalent to the fast diffusion equation $ \frac{\partial u}{\partial t} = \Delta \log u $ on $ \R^2 \times \R.$ We show that,…
We propose a generalization of two classes of Lie-Hamilton systems on the Euclidean plane to two-dimensional curved spaces, leading to novel Lie-Hamilton systems on Riemannian spaces (flat $2$-torus, product of hyperbolic lines, sphere and…
Imposing non-integrable constraints on Ricci flows of (pseudo) Riemannian metrics we model mutual transforms to, and from, non-Riemannian spaces. Such evolutions of geometries and physical theories can be modelled for nonholonomic manifolds…
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 a series of papers, Bamler [Bam20a,Bam20b,Bam20c] further developed the high-dimensional theory of Hamilton's Ricci flow to include new monotonicity formulas, a completely general compactness theorem, and a long-sought partial regularity…
We study two-dimensional weighted ${\mathcal N}=2$ supersymmetric $\mathbb{CP}$ models with the goal of exploring their infrared (IR) limit. $\mathbb{WCP}(N,\widetilde{N})$ are simplified versions of world-sheet theories on non-Abelian…
In this paper we present several curvature estimates and convergence results for solutions of the Ricci flow. The curvature estimates depend on smallness of certain local space-time integrals of the norm of the Riemann curvature tensor,…
Generalized differential forms are used in discussions of metric geometries and Einstein's vacuum field equations. Cartan's structure equations are generalized and applied. In particular flat generalized connections are associated with any…
We prove the linear stability of Schwarzschild-Tangherlini spacetimes and their Anti-de Sitter counterparts under Ricci flow for a special class of perturbations. This is useful in the choice of suitable initial conditions in numerical…
We present a class of singularity free exact cosmological solutions of Einstein's equations describing a perfect fluid with heat flow. It is obtained as generalization of the Senovilla class [1] corresponding to incoherent radiation field.…
We introduce a combinatorial method to construct indefinite Ricci-flat metrics on nice nilpotent Lie groups. We prove that every nilpotent Lie group of dimension $\leq6$, every nice nilpotent Lie group of dimension $\leq7$ and every…
Using a recently developed piecewise flat method, numerical evolutions of the Ricci flow are computed for a number of manifolds, using a number of different mesh types, and shown to converge to the expected smooth behaviour as the mesh…
We study an even dimensional manifold with a pseudo-Riemannian metric with arbitrary signature and arbitrary dimensions. We consider the Ricci flat equations and present a procedure to construct solutions to some higher (even) dimensional…
Let (M,g_0) be a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension n \geq 4. We show that the normalized Ricci flow deforms g_0 to a constant curvature metric provided that (M,g_0) x R has positive isotropic curvature. This condition is stronger…
We study topological structures of the sets $(0,1/2)^3 \cap \Omega$ and $(0,1/2)^3 \setminus \Omega$, where~$\Omega$ is one special algebraic surface defined by a symmetric polynomial in variables $a_1,a_2,a_3$ of degree~$12$. These…
In this note, we complete the classification of the geometry of non-compact two-dimensional gradient Ricci solitons. As a consequence, we obtain two corollaries: First, a complete two-dimensional gradient Ricci soliton has bounded…
