Ricci Curvature on Polyhedral Surfaces via Optimal Transportation

open access: yesAxioms, 2014
The problem of correctly defining geometric objects, such as the curvature, is a hard one in discrete geometry. In 2009, Ollivier defined a notion of curvature applicable to a wide category of measured metric spaces, in particular to graphs.

Inequality for Ricci curvature of certain submanifolds in locally conformal almost cosymplectic manifolds

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2005
We establish inequalities between the Ricci curvature and the squared mean curvature, and also between the k-Ricci curvature and the scalar curvature for a slant, semi-slant, and bi-slant submanifold in a locally conformal almost cosymplectic manifold ...

Levi-Civita Ricci-Flat Doubly Warped Product Hermitian Manifolds

open access: yesAdvances in Mathematical Physics, 2022
Let M1,g and M2,h be two Hermitian manifolds. The doubly warped product (abbreviated as DWP) Hermitian manifold of M1,g and M2,h is the product manifold M1×M2 endowed with the warped product Hermitian metric G=f22g+f12h, where f1 and f2 are positive ...

Local pinching estimates in 3-dim Ricci flow

open access: yes, 2013
We study curvature pinching estimates of Ricci flow on complete 3- dimensional manifolds without bounded curvature assumption. We will derive some general curvature conditions which are preserved on any complete solution of 3-dim Ricci flow, these ...

A Review of and Some Results for Ollivier–Ricci Network Curvature

open access: yesMathematics, 2020
Characterizing topological properties and anomalous behaviors of higher-dimensional topological spaces via notions of curvatures is by now quite common in mainstream physics and mathematics, and it is therefore natural to try to extend these notions from

Ricci curvature of submanifolds in Kenmotsu space forms

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2002
In 1999, Chen established a sharp relationship between the Ricci curvature and the squared mean curvature for a submanifold in a Riemannian space form with arbitrary codimension.

Mean curvature flow in a Ricci flow background

open access: yes, 2012
Following work of Ecker, we consider a weighted Gibbons-Hawking-York functional on a Riemannian manifold-with-boundary. We compute its variational properties and its time derivative under Perelman's modified Ricci flow.

A New Transport Distance and Its Associated Ricci Curvature of Hypergraphs

open access: yesAnalysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces, 2022
The coarse Ricci curvature of graphs introduced by Ollivier as well as its modification by Lin–Lu– Yau have been studied from various aspects. In this paper, we propose a new transport distance appropriate for hypergraphs and study a generalization of ...

An axially symmetric spacetime with causality violation in Ricci-inverse gravity

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023
In this paper, Ricci-inverse gravity is investigated. It is an alternative theory of gravity that introduces into the Einstein–Hilbert action an anti-curvature scalar that is obtained from the anti-curvature tensor which is the inverse of the Ricci ...

Kropina Metrics with Isotropic Scalar Curvature

open access: yesAxioms, 2023
In this paper, we study Kropina metrics with isotropic scalar curvature. First, we obtain the expressions of Ricci curvature tensor and scalar curvature. Then, we characterize the Kropina metrics with isotropic scalar curvature on by tensor analysis.
