Ricci flow on ALF manifolds
Dain Kim
(MIT)
Abstract
Asymptotically Locally Flat (ALF) Ricci-flat metrics are expected to model certain long-time singularities in four-dimensional Ricci flow, so understanding their stability is essential. In this talk, I will discuss that conformally Kähler, non-hyperkähler Ricci-flat ALF metrics are dynamically unstable under Ricci flow. Our work establishes three key tools in this setting: a Fredholm theory for the Laplacian on ALF metrics, the preservation of the ALF structure along the Ricci flow, and an extension of Perelman’s λ-functional to ALF metrics. This is joint work with Tristan Ozuch.

Last year BBC Breakfast launched a puzzle advent calendar in collaboration with GCHQ. It was a huge hit and so they want to follow it up a bi-weekly challenge (probably Monday and Friday) in the Spring, set by a panel of experts/quizzers. They are "are hoping to recruit around a dozen of the best minds in the country to help set these challenges", in this case female minds for gender balance.

Take a break from a busy week and make some mathematical crafts. Join us at 12 pm in N4.01 on Friday the 20th. Materials and a Taylors sandwich lunch provided. Please indicate attendance for catering purposes by 5pm on the 17th.
Inspired by Sergio in Mathematical Biology, we are making a film about how mathematics is expressed or conceived in different languages. As part of that, we would like speakers of as many different languages as possible to say how a selection of terms are expressed in their native tongue. Literally 60 second work (if you can remember the translation). Please email Dyrol.
