Geometric Evolution Equations: National Center For Theoretical Sciences Workshop On Geometric Evolution Equations, National Tsing-hua University, ... (Contemporary Mathematics, 367, Band 367) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

The 14 papers in this collection from the July/August 2002 workshop explore the minimal surface equation, mean curvature flow, harmonic map flow, Calabi flow, Ricci flow, Kahler-Ricci flow, function theory on Kahler manifolds, flows of plane curves, convexity estimates, and the Christoffel-Minkowski problem. The contributors survey Hamilton?s program for the Ricci flow on 3-manifolds, self-similar solutions to the Ricci flow, Liouville properties on Kahler manifolds, and the evolution of embedded closed plane curves, with an emphasis on their expanding behavior.
