We study ancient Ricci flows which admit asymptotic solitons in the sense of Perelman. We prove that the asymptotic solitons must coincide with Bamler's tangent flows at infinity. Furthermore, we show that Perelman's $\nu$-functional is…

We study a Boltzmann's type entropy functional (which appeared in existing literature) defined on K\"ahler metrics of a fixed K\"ahler class. The critical points of this functional are gradient K\"ahler-Ricci solitons, and the functional…

We introduce and study a new general flow of $\mathrm{G}_2$-structures which we call the Ricci-harmonic flow of $\mathrm{G}_2$-structures. The flow is the coupling of the Ricci flow of underlying metrics and the isometric flow of…
