In this paper we study the existence of periodic orbits in the flow of non-singular steady Euler fields $X$ on closed 3-manifolds, that is $X$ is a solution of time independent Euler equations. We show, that when $X$ is $C^2$ the flow…

Under the validity of the positive mass theorem, the Yamabe flow on a smooth compact Riemannian manifold of dimension $N \ge 3$ is known to exist for all time $t$ and converges to a solution to the Yamabe problem as $t \to \infty$. We prove…

Mean curvature flow evolves isometrically immersed base manifolds $M$ in the direction of their mean curvatures in an ambient manifold $\bar{M}$. If the base manifold $M$ is compact, the short time existence and uniqueness of the mean…
