The Functional Determinant and the Partition Function in Geometric Flows
Christopher Lin
We propose the use of the functional determinant of geometric operators in constructing an entropy functional associated to geometric flows. Our approach is based on the direct com…

The Bochner Formula via Volume Variations
Christopher Lin
In this short paper, we re-derive the Bochner formula for the Laplacian by considering local variations of volume. The derivation is rooted in the fact that the Laplacian of a func…
