A solution to the heat equation between Riemannian manifolds, where the domain is compact and possibly has boundary, will not leave a compact and locally convex set before the image of the boundary does.

We construct solutions to the heat equation on convex rings showing that quasiconcavity may not be preserved along the flow, even for smooth and subharmonic initial data.

The paper considers a manifold $M$ evolving under the Ricci flow and establishes a series of gradient estimates for positive solutions of the heat equation on $M$. Among other results, we prove Li-Yau-type inequalities in this context. We…

We establish an estimate for the fundamental solution of the heat equation on a closed Riemannian manifold $M$ of dimension at least 3, evolving under the Ricci flow. The estimate depends on some constants arising from a Sobolev imbedding…

The paper establishes a series of gradient estimates for positive solutions to the heat equation on a manifold $M$ evolving under the Ricci flow, coupled with the harmonic map flow between $M$ and a second manifold $N$. We prove Li-Yau type…

In this paper, we obtain the existence of Dirichlet problem for VT harmonic map from compact Riemannian manifold with or without boundary into compact manifold via the heat flow method. We also obtain the existence of V T geodesics uncer…

In this article, we study the the harmonic map heat flow from a manifold with conic singularities to a closed manifold. In particular, we have proved the short time existence and uniqueness of solutions as well as the existence of global…

The main result of this note is the existence of martingale solutions to the stochastic heat equation (SHE) in a Riemannian manifold by using suitable Dirichlet forms on the corresponding path/loop space. Moreover, we present some…

We apply ideas from viscosity theory to establish the existence of a unique global weak solution to the generalized Kahler-Ricci flow in the setting of commuting complex structures. Our results are restricted to the case of a smooth…

We prove that no concavity properties are preserved by the Dirichlet heat flow in a totally convex domain of a Riemannian manifold unless the sectional curvature vanishes everywhere on the domain.

We derive localized and global noncompact versions of Hamilton's gradient estimate for positive solutions to the heat equation on Riemannian manifolds with Ricci curvature bounded below. Our estimates are essentially optimal and…

We study the existence and regularity of solutions to the Cauchy problem for the inhomogeneous heat equation on compact Riemannian manifolds with conical singularities. We introduce weighted H\"older and Sobolev spaces with discrete…

In this paper, we establish the uniqueness of heat flow of harmonic maps into (N, h) that have sufficiently small renormalized energies, provided that N is either a unit sphere $S^{k-1}$ or a compact Riemannian homogeneous manifold without…

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,…

We establish global existence of smooth solutions to heat flow for Yang-Mills-Higgs functional on Kahler fibrations. As an application, we give a new proof of the key inequality for Mundet's Hitchin-Kobayashi correspondence theorem using…

We present two approaches to the heat flow on a Finsler manifold $(M,F)$: either as gradient flow on $L^2(M,m)$ for the energy; or as gradient flow on the reverse $L^2$-Wasserstein space $\mathcal{P}_2(M)$ of probability measures on $M$ for…

We study contractivity properties of gradient flows for functions on normed spaces or, more generally, on Finsler manifolds. Contractivity of the flows turns out to be equivalent to a new notion of convexity for the functions. This is…

We give a simple proof of Onsager's conjecture concerning energy conservation for weak solutions to the Euler equations on any compact Riemannian manifold, extending the results of Constantin-E-Titi and…

We consider the stochastic heat equation on a compact smooth Riemannian manifold without boundary satisfying \begin{equation*} \partial_tu(t,x)=\frac{1}{2}\Delta_Mu(t,x)+\sigma(t,x,u)\dot{W}(t,x),\quad (t,x)\in\mathbb{R}_+\times M,…

In this paper, we first establish regularity of the heat flow of biharmonic maps into the unit sphere $S^L\subset\mathbb R^{L+1}$ under a smallness condition of renormalized total energy. For the class of such solutions to the heat flow of…
