The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $100,000 Project Grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to Rutgers, The State University to study the dynamics of cylindrical singularities in geometric flows and ancient solutions. The primary objective is to understand the formation and stability of cylindrical singularities in nonlinear parabolic equations from differential geometry problems, such as the evolution of hypersurfaces in Euclidean space and the...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences Federal Grant Program (CFDA 47.049) supports research efforts at Arizona State University (ASU) to better understand the "Ricci flow" - a geometric heat flow equation with applications in areas like material science and topology. The $149,911 award over 3 years will fund two main research directions: 1) using unique continuation methods to study the classification of noncompact...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $199,999 Project Grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program to the University of California, Irvine (UCI). The grant supports a research project that explores the mathematical process of Ricci flow, which can smooth out geometric shapes over time and has led to major breakthroughs in understanding the geometry and topology of space. Specifically, the project aims to extend the use of surgeries to continue Ricci flows...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Mathematical Sciences awarded a $400,000 Project Grant to New York University (NYU) for the period of August 1, 2023 to July 31, 2026. The grant, funded under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), focuses on two key areas: Studying geometric evolution equations, specifically mean curvature flow and Ricci flow, with a focus on different aspects of regularity. This research aims to address longstanding open problems at the...
This federal Project Grant award for $150,000, provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), supports research on the geometric properties of submanifolds and their relationship to partial differential equations like the minimal surface equation and mean curvature flow. The project, led by researchers at The Johns Hopkins University, will investigate the Colding-Minicozzi entropy and Li-Yau conformal volume, which measure...
This three-year $215,251 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) supports research at the University of Tennessee to develop techniques in the field of analysis on metric spaces and geometric measure theory. The goals of the research are to relate integral bounds for discrete forms of curvature on non-smooth manifolds with locally Euclidean bi-Lipschitz parameterizations in dimensions greater than or equal to three,...
