In this note, we study the curvature flow to Nirenberg problem on $S^2$ with non-negative nonlinearity. This flow was introduced by Brendle and Struwe. Our result is that the Nirenberg problems has a solution provided the prescribed…

We initiate the study of a new nonlinear parabolic equation on a Riemann surface. The evolution equation arises as a reduction of the Anomaly flow on a fibration. We obtain a criterion for long-time existence for this flow, and give a range…

We investigate the convergence of the mean curvature flow of arbitrary codimension in Riemannian manifolds with bounded geometry. We prove that if the initial submanifold satisfies a pinching condition, then along the mean curvature flow…

This paper proves that, at the first singular time for a smoothly immersed surface moving by mean curvature flow in a n-manifold, each tangent flow is given by a smooth, branched shrinker, possibly with multiplicity. If n=3 and if the…

We solve the problem of prescribing different types of curvatures (principal, mean or Gaussian) on rotational surfaces in terms of arbitrary continuous functions depending on the distance from the surface to the axis of revolution. In this…

Long time existence and convergence to a circle is proved for radial graph solutions to a mean curvature type curve flow in warped product surfaces (under a weak assumption on the warp potential of the surface). This curvature flow…

This work introduces the framed curvature flow, a generalization of both the curve shortening flow and the vortex filament equation. Here, the magnitude of the velocity vector is still determined by the curvature, but its direction is given…

On a closed Riemannian manifold $(M,g_0)$ of even dimension $n \geqslant 4$, the well-known prescribed $Q$-curvature problem asks whether or not there is a metric $g$ comformal to $g_0$ such that its $Q$-curvature, associated with the GJMS…

In this paper, we study the following prescribed Gaussian curvature problem $$K=\frac{\tilde{f}(\theta)}{\phi(\rho)^{\alpha-2}\sqrt{\phi(\rho)^2+|\bar{\nabla}\rho|^2}},$$ a generalization of the Alexandrov problem ($\alpha=n+1$) in…

We study the long-time behaviour of the temperature-driven compressible flows. We show that numerical solutions of a structure-preserving finite volume method generate a discrete attractor that consists of entire discrete trajectories.…

In this paper we investigate a kind of generalized Ricci flow which possesses a gradient form. We study the monotonicity of the given function under the generalized Ricci flow and prove that the related system of partial differential…

In this note we discuss the geometry of Riemannian surfaces having a discrete set of singular points. We assume the conformal structure extends through the singularities and the curvature is integrable. Such points are called \emph{simple…

The Gaussian curvature of a two-dimensional Riemannian manifold is uniquely determined by the choice of the metric. The formulas for computing the curvature in terms of components of the metric, in isothermal coordinates, involve the…

In [SW2], we defined a generalized mean curvature vector field on any almost Lagrangian submanifold with respect to a torsion connection on an almost K\"ahler manifold. The short time existence of the corresponding parabolic flow was…

We propose a level-set method for a mean curvature flow whose boundary is prescribed by interpreting the boundary as an obstacle. Since the corresponding obstacle problem is globally solvable, our method gives a global-in-time level-set…

We establish fundamental results for a parabolic flow of Riemannian metrics introduced by Bahuaud-Helliwell in arXiv:1010:4287v1 which is based on the Fefferman-Graham ambient obstruction tensor. First, we obtain local $L^2$ smoothing…

In this paper we prove two backward uniqueness theorems for extrinsic geometric flow of possibly non-compact hypersurfaces in general ambient complete Riemannian manifolds. These are applicable to a wide range of extrinsic geometric flow,…

We introduce the gradient flow of the Seiberg-Witten functional on a compact, orientable Riemannian 4-manifold and show the global existence of a unique smooth solution to the flow. The flow converges uniquely in $C^\infty$ up to gauge to a…

Motivated by a constrained minimization problem, it is studied the gradient flows with respect to Hessian Riemannian metrics induced by convex functions of Legendre type. The first result characterizes Hessian Riemannian structures on…

In this paper we first obtain the existence of smooth solutions to Orlicz-Aleksandrov problem via a Gauss-like curvature flow.
