The Ricci flow and the early universe

open access: yesAnnals of Physics, 2023
A framework of quantum spacetime reference frame is proposed and reviewed, in which the quantum spacetime at the Gaussian approximation is deformed by the Ricci flow. At sufficient large scale, the Ricci flow not only smooths out local small irregularities making the universe a homogeneous and isotropic Friedmann-Robertson-Walker metric, but also ...

On the blow-up of four-dimensional Ricci flow singularities

open access: yes, 2013
textIn 2002, Feldman, Ilmanen, and Knopf constructed the first example of a non-trivial (i.e. non-constant curvature) complete non-compact shrinking soliton, and conjectured that it models a Ricci flow singularity forming on a closed four-manifold.

Sigma model renormalisation group flows, singularities and some remarks on cosmology

open access: yesPhysics Letters B
We investigate the properties of the renormalisation group (RG) flow of two-dimensional sigma models with a generic metric coupling by utilising known results for the Ricci flow. We point out that on many occasions the RG flow develops singularities, due

Gauge fields in a string-cigar braneworld

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2015
In this work, we investigate the properties of the Abelian gauge vector field in the background of a string-cigar braneworld. Both the thin and thick brane limits are considered.

Instantaneously complete Ricci flows on surfaces [PDF]

open access: yes
The intention of this thesis is to give a survey of instantaneously complete Ricci flows on surfaces, focussing on the existence and uniqueness of its Cauchy problem.

Collapsing immortal Kähler-Ricci flows

open access: yesForum of Mathematics, Pi
We consider the Kähler-Ricci flow on compact Kähler manifolds with semiample canonical bundle and intermediate Kodaira dimension, and show that the flow collapses to a canonical metric on the base of the Iitaka fibration in the locally smooth topology ...

Complete $(2+1)$-dimensional Ricci flow spacetimes

open access: yes, 2022
Ricci flow spacetimes were introduced by Kleiner & Lott as a way to describe Ricci flow through singularities, and have since been used elsewhere in the literature, prompting the question of their rigidity.
