Neckpinch singularities of Ricci flow

open access: yes
We use asymptotic analysis techniques to analyze Ricci flow asymptotic to a cylinder and prove two results. First, we derive the precise asymptotic behavior of a compact rotationally symmetric Ricci flow near a singularity modeled on the round cylinder ...

The Revo‐Evo Debate in the History and Philosophy of Science

open access: yesNatural Sciences, Volume 6, Issue 3, July 2026.
The paper juxtaposes revolutionary and evolutionary positions in epistemology in general as well as the history of science. While it deems the evolutionary arguments more persuasive, it also stresses the dependence of our assessment of change on the language we choose to describe the theories and positions under consideration.

Trans-Sasakian 3-Manifolds with Reeb Flow Invariant Ricci Operator

open access: yesMathematics, 2018
Let M be a three-dimensional trans-Sasakian manifold of type ( α , β ) . In this paper, we obtain that the Ricci operator of M is invariant along Reeb flow if and only if M is an α -Sasakian manifold, cosymplectic manifold or a

Singularities of Connection Ricci Flow and Ricci Harmonic Flow

open access: yes, 2013
In this paper, we study the singularities of two extended Ricci flow systems --- connection Ricci flow and Ricci harmonic flow using newly-defined curvature quantities. Specifically, we give the definition of three types of singularities and their corresponding singularity models, and then prove the convergence. In addition, for Ricci harmonic flow, we

Combinatorial Ricci Flows on Surfaces

open access: yesJournal of Differential Geometry, 2003
We show that the analog of Hamilton's Ricci flow in the combinatorial setting produces solutions which converge exponentially fast to Thurston's circle packing on surfaces. As a consequence, a new proof of Thurston's existence of circle packing theorem is obtained. As another consequence, Ricci flow suggests a new algorithm to find circle packings.

Stability of piecewise flat Ricci flow

open access: yes, 2023
The stability of a recently developed piecewise flat Ricci flow is investigated, using a linear stability analysis and numerical simulations, and a class of piecewise flat approximations of smooth manifolds is adapted to avoid an inherent numerical ...

Approximate Ricci‐Flat Metrics for Calabi–Yau Manifolds

open access: yesFortschritte der Physik, Volume 74, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT We outline a method to determine analytic Kähler potentials with associated approximately Ricci‐flat Kähler metrics on Calabi–Yau manifolds. Key ingredients are numerically calculating Ricci‐flat Kähler potentials via machine learning techniques and fitting the numerical results to Donaldson's ansatz.

About Uniqueness of Steady Ricci Schwarzschild Solitons

open access: yesAxioms
In this paper, the uniqueness of steady Schwarzschild gradient Ricci solitons is studied. The role of the weight functions is analyzed. The generalized steady Schwarzschild gradient Ricci solitons are investigated; the implications of the rotational ...

Topology of 3-dimensional manifolds [PDF]

open access: yesریاضی و جامعه
This is the second paper from a trio which reviews some of the progress in low dimensional topology in the past century. Starting with the work of Poincare in the last years of 19th century and first few years of 20th century, we review the major steps ...

Blue LED Light Attenuates the Bacterial Bioburden in Chronic Wounds Transiently but Dose‐Dependently

open access: yesWound Repair and Regeneration, Volume 34, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT Phototherapy may improve chronic wound healing through different mechanisms. We have investigated whether escalating doses of blue LED light treatment (λ = 405 nm) impact the chronic wound microbiota. Twenty‐two patients with chronic wounds were sequentially assigned to a low dose (20 J/cm2, n = 7), medium dose (60 J/cm2, n = 8), or high dose (
