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,

The Chern-Ricci flow on complex surfaces [PDF]
The Chern-Ricci flow is an evolution equation of Hermitian metrics by their Chern-Ricci form, first introduced by Gill. Building on our previous work, we investigate this flow on complex surfaces. We establish new estimates in the case of finite time non-

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.

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.

A MECHANICS FOR THE RICCI FLOW
We construct the classical mechanics associated with a conformally flat Riemannian metric on a compact, n-dimensional manifold without boundary. The corresponding gradient Ricci flow equation turns out to equal the time-dependent Hamilton–Jacobi equation of the mechanics so defined.

Ricci flows with unbounded curvature [PDF]
Until recently, Ricci flow was viewed almost exclusively as a way of deforming Riemannian metrics of bounded curvature. Unfortunately, the bounded curvature hypothesis is unnatural for many applications, but is hard to drop because so many new phenomena can occur in the general case.

Metric Perspectives of the Ricci Flow Appliedto Disjoint Unions
In this paper we consider compact, Riemannian manifolds M1, M2 each equipped with a oneparameterfamily of metrics g1(t), g2(t) satisfying the Ricci flow equation.

The Soliton-Ricci Flow with variable volume forms
We introduce a flow of Riemannian metrics and positive volume forms over compact oriented manifolds whose formal limit is a shrinking Ricci soliton. The case of a fixed volume form has been considered in our previouswork.We still call this new flow, the ...

Ricci Soliton and Certain Related Metrics on a Three-Dimensional Trans-Sasakian Manifold
In this article, a Ricci soliton and *-conformal Ricci soliton are examined in the framework of trans-Sasakian three-manifold. In the beginning of the paper, it is shown that a three-dimensional trans-Sasakian manifold of type (α,β) admits a Ricci ...

Characterizations of Trivial Ricci Solitons
Finding characterizations of trivial solitons is an important problem in geometry of Ricci solitons. In this paper, we find several characterizations of a trivial Ricci soliton.
