    Special Lagrangians, stable bundles and mean curvature flow

    Full text link
    We make a conjecture about mean curvature flow of Lagrangian submanifolds of Calabi-Yau manifolds, expanding on \cite{Th}. We give new results about the stability condition, and propose a Jordan-H\"older-type decomposition of (special) Lagrangians. The main results are the uniqueness of special Lagrangians in hamiltonian deformation classes of Lagrangians, under mild conditions, and a proof of the conjecture in some cases with symmetry: mean curvature flow converging to Shapere-Vafa's examples of SLags.Comment: 36 pages, 4 figures.

    Ricci-flat graphs with girth at least five

    Full text link
    A graph is called Ricci-flat if its Ricci-curvatures vanish on all edges. Here we use the definition of Ricci-cruvature on graphs given in [Lin-Lu-Yau, Tohoku Math., 2011], which is a variation of [Ollivier, J. Funct. Math., 2009]. In this paper, we classified all Ricci-flat connected graphs with girth at least five: they are the infinite path, cycle CnC_n (n≥6n\geq 6), the dodecahedral graph, the Petersen graph, and the half-dodecahedral graph. We also construct many Ricci-flat graphs with girth 3 or 4 by using the root systems of simple Lie algebras.Comment: 14 pages, 15 figure
