We construct new ancient compact solutions to the Yamabe flow. Our solutions are rotationally symmetric and converge, as $t \to -\infty$, to two self-similar complete non-compact solutions to the Yamabe flow moving in opposite directions.…
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 show that any non-collapsed finite time singularity of the Ricci flow on a compact K\"ahler surface is of Type I. Combined with a previous result of the first author, Cifarelli, and Deruelle, it follows that any such singularity is…
In this paper, we prove the existence of an ancient solution to the Ricci flow whose limit at $t=-\infty$ is the Euclidean Schwarzschild metric.
Given $\Bbb R^2, $ with a ``good'' complete metric, we show that the unique solution of the Ricci flow approaches a soliton at time infinity. Solitons are solutions of the Ricci flow, which move only by diffeomorphism. The Ricci flow on…
In this paper, we study the moduli spaces of noncollapsed Ricci flow solutions with bounded energy and scalar curvature. We show a weak compactness theorem for such moduli spaces and apply it to study isoperimetric constant control,…
We extend some convergence results on nonsingular compact Ricci flows in the papers \cite{Ha:1}, \cite{Se:1} and \cite{FZZ:2} to certain infinite volume noncompact cases which are "partially" nonsingular. As an application, for a finite…
We find explicit solutions and singularities of the Ricci-harmonic flow of $\mathrm{G_2}$-structures, the Ricci-like flows of $\mathrm{G_2}$-structures studied by Gianniotis-Zacharopoulos in arXiv:2505.06872 (J. Geom. Anal. 36.2 (2026)) and…
We give biLipschitz models for the Ricci flow on some 4-manifolds (minimal surfaces of general type), exhibiting a combination of expanding and static behavior.
We show that a rescale limit at any degenerate singularity of Ricci flow in dimension 3 is a steady gradient soliton. In particular, we give a geometric description of type I and type II singularities.
Using a size condition of the sharp log Sobolev functional (log entropy) near infinity only, we prove a rigidity result for ancient Ricci flows without sign condition on the curvatures. The result is also related to the problem of…
We address the classification of ancient solutions to the Gauss curvature flow under the assumption that the solutions are contained in a cylinder of bounded cross section. For each cylinder of convex bounded cross-section, we show that…
In this paper, we consider solutions of the backward heat equation with Ricci flow on manifolds as a type of infinite dimensional limit of solutions of a wave equation on a larger manifold with an analysis of wavefront set. Specifically,…
In this short note, we prove that the only simply connected noncompact three-dimensional Type I $\kappa$-solution to the Ricci flow is the shrinking cylinder. This work can be regarded as a generalization of Cao and Chow, and a complement…
It is known from work of Perelman that any finite-time singularity of the Ricci flow on a compact three-manifold is modeled on an ancient $\kappa$-solution. We prove that the every noncompact ancient $\kappa$-solution in dimension $3$ is…
By Perelman's $\mathcal L$-geodesic theory, we study the blow-down solutions on a noncompact $\kappa$-noncollapsed steady gradient Ricci soliton $(M^n, g)$ $(n\ge 4)$ with nonnegative curvature operator and positive Ricci curvature away…
We show how solutions to the Ricci flow on Lorentzian manifolds, along with its generalizations, can be linked to Einstein's field equations. The approach involves deformations of the matter sector that are generated by quadratic…
In this paper, we prove that any solution of K\"ahler-Ricci flow on a Fano compactification $M$ of semisimple complex Lie group, is of type II, if $M$ admits no K\"ahler-Einstein metrics. As an application, we found two Fano…
In this note, we answer affirmatively the question if a warped product of a compact manifold with a line as an ancient solution to the Ricci flow is trivial. We also consider the global behavior of the Type III warping product Ricci flow.
