Producing 3D Ricci flows with nonnegative Ricci curvature via singular Ricci flows [PDF]
Geometry & Topology, 2021 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.

Ricci-Bourguignon flow on an open surface [PDF]
Journal of Mahani Mathematical Research, 2023 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.

Perelman’s Ricci Flow in topological quantum gravity [PDF]
Advances in Theoretical and Mathematical Physics, 2020 We find the regime of our recently constructed topological nonrelativistic quantum gravity, in which Perelman's Ricci flow equations on Riemannian manifolds appear precisely as the localization equations in the path integral.

Stability and instability of Ricci solitons [PDF]
, 2014 We consider the volume-normalized Ricci flow close to compact shrinking Ricci solitons. We show that if a compact Ricci soliton $(M,g)$ is a local maximum of Perelman's shrinker entropy, any normalized Ricci flow starting close to it exists for all time ...

The twisted Kähler–Ricci flow [PDF]
Journal für die reine und angewandte Mathematik (Crelles Journal), 2014 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.

The Cotton Tensor and the Ricci Flow [PDF]
Geometric Flows, 2017 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.

Gradient flow of Einstein-Maxwell theory and Reissner-Nordström black holes
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 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.

Diameter Estimate in Geometric Flows
Mathematics, 2023 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,
