چکیده

We prove that Ricci flows with almost maximal extinction time must be nearly round, provided that they have positive isotropic curvature when crossed with R. As an application, we show that positively curved metrics on S and RP 3 with almost maximal width must be nearly round.

Implementation of D3Q19 Lattice Boltzmann Method with a Curved Wall Boundary Condition for Simulation of Practical Flow Problems

In this paper, implementation of an extended form of a no-slip wall boundary condition is presented for the three-dimensional (3-D) lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) for solving the incompressible fluid flows with complex geometries. The boundary condition is based on the off-lattice scheme with a polynomial interpolation which is used to reconstruct the curved or irregular wall boundary on the ne...

A Caveat on the Convergence of the Ricci Flow for Pinched Negatively Curved Manifolds

where r = ∫ Rdμ/ ∫ dμ is the average scalar curvature (R is the scalar curvature) and Ric is the Ricci curvature tensor of h. Hamilton then spectacularly illustrated the success of this method by proving, when n = 3, that if the initial Riemannian metric has strictly positive Ricci curvature it evolves through time to a positively curved Einstein metric h∞ on M . And, because n = 3, such a Riem...

ricci flow of negatively curved incomplete surfaces

We show uniqueness of Ricci flows starting at a surface of uniformly negative curvature, with the assumption that the flows become complete instantaneously. Together with the more general existence result proved in [10], this settles the issue of well-posedness in this class.

Assessment of Turbulent Models in Computation of Strongly Curved Open Channel Flows

Several rigorous turbulent models have been developed in the past years and it can be seen that more research is needed to reach a better understanding of their generality and precision by verifying their applications for distinct hydraulic phenomena; under certain assumptions. This survey evaluates the performance of Standard k-ε, Realizable k-ε, RNG k-ε, k-ω and RSM models in predicting flow ...

Conjugacy rigidity for nonpositively curved graph manifolds

We show that the metric of nonpositively curved graph manifolds is determined by its geodesic flow. More precisely we show that if the geodesic flows of two nonpositively curved graph manifolds are C0 conjugate then the spaces
