Study steady gradient Ricci solitons with cylindrical tangent flows at infinity.

The two-loop renormalization group flow is studied via the induced bracket flow on 3D unimodular Lie groups. A number of steady solitons are found. Some of these steady solitons come from maximally symmetric metrics that are steady, shrinking, or expanding solitons under Ricci flow, while others are not obviously relat…

We study closed ancient solutions to gradient flows of elliptic functionals in Riemannian manifolds, including mean curvature flow and harmonic map heat flow. Our work has various consequences. In all dimensions and codimensions, we classify ancient mean curvature flows in S^n with low area: they are steady or shrinkin…

Paper finds new criteria for conjugate points in fluid flows.

A nontrivial smooth steady incompressible Euler flow in three dimensions with compact support is constructed. Another uncommon property of this solution is the dependence between the Bernoulli function and the pressure.

We characterize, using commuting zero-flux homologies, those volume-preserving vector fields on a $3$-manifold that are steady solutions of the Euler equations for some Riemannian metric. This result extends Sullivan's homological characterization of geodesible flows in the volume-preserving case. As an application, we…

We present a steady Euler flow on the round 3-sphere whose velocity vector field has the property of having two independent first integrals, being tangent to the fibres of an almost submersion onto the 2-sphere. This submersion turns out to be a critical point for the quartic Faddeev-Skyrme model with a standard potent…

The paper classifies solitons for a specific type of flow.

We give a classification of compact solitons for the pluriclosed flow on complex surfaces. First, by exploiting results from the Kodaira classification of surfaces, we show that the complex surface underlying a soliton must be Kähler except for the possibility of steady solitons on minimal Hopf surfaces. Then, we const…

This work concerns with the existence and detailed asymptotic analysis of Type II singularities for solutions to complete non-compact conformally flat Yamabe flow with cylindrical behavior at infinity. We provide the specific blow-up rate of the maximum curvature and show that the solution converges, after blowing-up a…

We show that a steady-state stock-flow consistent macro-economic model can be represented as a Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP).The set of solutions is a polytope, which volume depends on the constraintsapplied and reveals the potential fragility of the economic circuit,with no need to study the dynamics. Several …

We study the Ricci flow on Riemannian groupoids. We assume that these groupoids are closed and that the space of orbits is compact and connected. We prove the short time existence and uniqueness of the Ricci flow on these groupoids. We also define a F-functional and derive the corresponding results for steady breathers…

Properties of steady compressible flow for which geometric constraints have been placed on the potential function are derived, under hypotheses on the flow density and the singular set. Some related unconstrained problems are also considered, including the estimation of a class of fields having nonzero vorticity.

Let $(M^3, g, f)$ be a nontrivial 3-dimensional steady gradient Ricci soliton. If the scalar curvature $R$ satisfies $c_1r^{-b}\leq R\leq c_2r^{-a}$ for some $a\in(0,1], b\geq a$, and $c_1,c_2>0$, then the umbilical ratio of the level sets of $f$ satisfies $\frac{2|A|^2-H^2}{H^2}\in O(r^{6a-\frac{8a^2}{b}})\cap O(r^{2b…

In this paper, we continue to study the generalized Ricci flow. We give a criterion on steady gradient Ricci soliton on complete and noncompact Riemannian manifolds that is Ricci-flat, and then introduce a natural flow whose stable points are Ricci-flat metrics. Modifying the argument used by Shi and List, we prove the…

We show that any locally conformally flat ancient solution to the Ricci flow must be rotationally symmetric. As a by-product, we prove that any locally conformally flat Ricci soliton is a gradient soliton in the shrinking and steady cases as well as in the expanding case, provided the soliton has nonnegative curvature.
