Functional inequalities for the heat flow on time‐dependent metric measure spaces
Abstract We prove that synthetic lower Ricci bounds for metric measure spaces — both in the sense of Bakry–Émery and in the sense of Lott–Sturm–Villani — can be characterized by various functional inequalities including local Poincaré inequalities, local logarithmic Sobolev inequalities, dimension independent Harnack inequality, and logarithmic Harnack

Remarks on Manifolds with Two-Sided Curvature Bounds
We discuss folklore statements about distance functions in manifolds with two-sided bounded curvature. The topics include regularity, subsets of positive reach and the cut locus.

Optimal L^p Hardy-Rellich type inequalities on the sphere
In this paper we study some Lp -Hardy-Rellich type inequalities and the corresponding optimal constant on the geodesic sphere. By the divergence theorem, properties of radial Laplacian and geodesic distance, we obtain an improved version of Hardy-Rellich

We generalize the Zermelo navigation on Riemannian manifolds (M; h), admitting a space dependence of a ship's speed 0 < |u(x)|h ≤ 1 in the presence of a perturbation W̃ determined by a strong (critical) velocity vector field satisfying |W̃ (x)|h = |u(x ...

Non-Parametric Mean Curvature Flow with Prescribed Contact Angle in Riemannian Products
Assuming that there exists a translating soliton u∞ with speed C in a domain Ω and with prescribed contact angle on ∂Ω, we prove that a graphical solution to the mean curvature flow with the same prescribed contact angle converges to u∞ + Ct as t →∞.

Limits of Riemannian 4‐manifolds and the symplectic geometry of their twistor spaces
Abstract The twistor space of a Riemannian 4‐manifold carries two almost complex structures, J+ and J−, and a natural closed 2‐form ω. This article studies limits of manifolds for which ω tames either J+ or J−. This amounts to a curvature inequality involving self‐dual Weyl curvature and Ricci curvature, and which is satisfied, for example, by all anti‐

Weakly Noncollapsed RCD Spaces with Upper Curvature Bounds
We show that if a CD(K, n) space (X, d, f ℋn) with n ≥ 2 has curvature bounded above by κ in the sense of Alexandrov then f is constant.

On the problem of prescribing weighted scalar curvature and the weighted Yamabe flow
The weighted Yamabe problem introduced by Case is the generalization of the Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequalities to smooth metric measure spaces. More precisely, given a smooth metric measure space (M,g,e−ϕdVg,m)\left(M,g,{e}^{-\phi }{\rm{d}}{V}_{g},m), the ...

Smooth long‐time existence of Harmonic Ricci Flow on surfaces
Abstract We prove that at a finite singular time for the Harmonic Ricci Flow on a surface of positive genus both the energy density of the map component and the curvature of the domain manifold have to blow up simultaneously. As an immediate consequence, we obtain smooth long‐time existence for the Harmonic Ricci Flow with large coupling constant.
