Nontrivial breathers for Ricci flow
Peter M. Topping
Perelman has proved that there cannot exist a nontrivial breather for Ricci flow on a closed manifold. Here we construct nontrivial expanding breathers for Ricci flow in all dimens…

Local monotonicity and mean value formulas for evolving Riemannian manifolds
Klaus Ecker, Dan Knopf, Lei Ni +1
We derive identities for general flows of Riemannian metrics that may be regarded as local mean-value, monotonicity, or Lyapunov formulae. These generalize previous work of the fir…
