Montag, 03.06.2013: Ancient solutions to geometric flows

Prof. Panagiota Daskalopoulos

We will discuss ancient solutions to non-linear parabolic equations, such as the semi-linear heat equation, the Ricci flow on surfaces, the Yamabe flow and the mean curvature flow. We will address the problem of classification of ancient solutions, the existence and classification of solitons as well as the construction of ancient solutions that are not solitons.
