The twisted Kähler–Ricci flow [PDF]
AbstractIn this paper we study a generalization of the Kähler–Ricci flow, in which the Ricci form is twisted by a closed, non-negative(1,1)$(1,1)$-form. We show that when a twisted Kähler–Einstein metric exists, then this twisted flow converges exponentially.

A Derivation of the Ricci Flow
In this work, we show that by restricting to the subgroup of time-independent coordinate transformations, then it is possible to derive the Ricci flow from the Bianchi identities. To achieve this, we first show that the field equations of the gravitational field, the Newton’s second law of classical dynamics, and the Maxwell field equations of the ...

Ricci-Bourguignon flow on an open surface [PDF]
In this paper, we investigate the normalized Ricci-Bourguignon flow with incomplete initial metric on an open surface. We show that such a flow converges exponentially to a metric with constant Gaussian curvature if the initial metric is suitable.

RICCI LOWER BOUND FOR KÄHLER–RICCI FLOW [PDF]
We provide general discussion on the lower bound of Ricci curvature along Kähler–Ricci flows over closed manifolds. The main result is the non-existence of Ricci lower bound for flows with finite time singularities and non-collapsed global volume. As an application, we give examples showing that positivity of Ricci curvature would not be preserved by ...

Diameter Estimate in Geometric Flows
We prove the upper and lower bounds of the diameter of a compact manifold (M,g(t)) with dimRM=n(n≥3) and a family of Riemannian metrics g(t) satisfying some geometric flows. Except for Ricci flow, these flows include List–Ricci flow, harmonic-Ricci flow,

Hyperbolic Gradient-Bourgoignon Flow
Introduction Ricci solitons as a generalization of Einstein manifolds introduced by Hamilton in mid 1980s. In the last two decades, a lot of researchers have been done on Ricci solitons.

The Cotton Tensor and the Ricci Flow [PDF]
AbstractWe compute the evolution equation of the Cotton and the Bach tensor under the Ricci flow of a Riemannian manifold, with particular attention to the three dimensional case, and we discuss some applications.

Producing 3D Ricci flows with nonnegative Ricci curvature via singular Ricci flows [PDF]
We extend the concept of singular Ricci flow by Kleiner and Lott from 3d compact manifolds to 3d complete manifolds with possibly unbounded curvature. As an application of the generalized singular Ricci flow, we show that for any 3d complete Riemannian manifold with non-negative Ricci curvature, there exists a smooth Ricci flow starting from it.

Gradient flow of Einstein-Maxwell theory and Reissner-Nordström black holes
Ricci flow is a natural gradient flow of the Einstein-Hilbert action. Here we consider the analog for the Einstein-Maxwell action, which gives Ricci flow with a stress tensor contribution coupled to a Yang-Mills flow for the Maxwell field.
