curvature bounds for Type I Ricci flows
Panagiotis Gianniotis, Konstantinos Leskas
We show -bounds of the Riemann curvature tensor on a smooth closed -dimensional Ricci flow. To achieve this we introduce the notion of a neck of maximal symmetry, similar t…
Diameter bounds in 3d Type I Ricci flows
Panagiotis Gianniotis
We prove that a three dimensional compact Ricci flow that encounters a Type I singularity has uniformly bounded diameter up to the singular time, thus giving an affirmative answer…
Splitting maps in Type I Ricci flows
Panagiotis Gianniotis
We study the existence and small scale behaviour of almost splitting maps along a Ricci flow satisfying Type I curvature bounds. These are special solutions of the heat equation th…
Flows of -structures, II: Curvature, torsion, symbols, and functionals
Shubham Dwivedi, Panagiotis Gianniotis, Spiro Karigiannis
We continue the investigation of general geometric flows of -structures initiated by the third author in "Flows of -structures, I." Specifically, we determine the possibl…
A -Hilbert functional in -geometry
Panagiotis Gianniotis, George Zacharopoulos
In this paper we introduce a new functional on the space of -structures which we call the -Hilbert functional. It is uniquely determined by a few basic principles inspire…
