In this paper we study the behavior of the Ricci flow at infinity for the full flag manifold $SU(3)/T$ using techniques of the qualitative theory of differential equations, in special the Poincar\'e Compactification and Lyapunov exponents.…

The goal of this paper is to study Yamabe flow on a complete Riemannian manifold of bounded geometry with possibly infinite volume. In the case of infinite volume, standard volume normalization of the Yamabe flow fails and the flow may not…

We consider a closed cohomogeneity one Riemannian manifold $(M^n,g) $ of dimension $n\geq 3$. If the Ricci curvature of $M$ is positive, we prove the existence of infinite nodal solutions for equations of the form $-\Delta_g u + \lambda u =…

We show that the isoperimetric profile $h_{g(t)}(\xi)$ of a compact Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ is jointly continuous when metrics $g(t)$ vary continuously. We also show that, when $M$ is a compact surface and $g(t)$ evolves under…

This paper is concerned with the study of generalized gradient Ricci-Yamabe solitons. We characterize the compact generalized gradient Ricci-Yamabe soliton and find certain conditions under which the scalar curvature becomes constant. The…

The CR Yamabe constant is an invariant of a compact strongly pseudoconvex CR manifold and plays an important role in CR geometry. We show some integral formulae of the CR Yamabe constant. We also construct an infinite-dimensional family of…

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 analyze an energy functional associated to Conformal Ricci Flow along closed manifolds with constant negative scalar curvature. Given initial conditions we use this functional to demonstrate the uniqueness of both the metric and the…

We provide a comparatively simple proof of the dynamical stability of Ricci flow near a linearly stable Ricci-flat ALE metric with integrable deformations. Our proof relies on the equivalence between integrability and an…

Let $\{g_t\}_{t\in [0,T)}$ be a family of complete time-depending Riemannian matrics on a manifold which evolves under backwards Ricci flow. The It\^{o} formula is established for the $\mathcal{L}$-distance of the $g_t$-Brownian motion to a…

Given an asymptotically conical, shrinking, gradient Ricci soliton, we show that there exists a Ricci flow solution on a closed manifold that forms a finite-time singularity modeled on the given soliton. No symmetry or Kahler assumptions on…

This note is a continuation of [CMZ21]. We shall show that an ancient Ricci flow with uniformly bounded Nash entropy must also have uniformly bounded $\nu$-functional. Consequently, on such an ancient solution there are uniform logarithmic…

For any flag manifold $M=G/K$ of a compact simple Lie group $G$ we describe non-collapsing ancient invariant solutions of the homogeneous unnormalized Ricci flow. Such solutions emerge from an invariant Einstein metric on $M$, and by…

We prove the existence of Ricci flow starting from a class of metrics with unbounded curvature, which are doubly-warped products over an interval with a spherical factor pinched off at an end. These provide a forward evolution from some…
