This is a case study where two vibrant areas of research in geometric analysis, Ricci flow and Einstein constraints theory, interact in a quite remarkable way. The interaction is of great relevance for applications in relativistic cosmology, allowing a mathematically rigorous approach to the initial data set averaging problem, at least when data sets are given on a closed space-like hypersurface. The book does not assume an a priori knowledge of Ricci flow theory, and considerable space is left for introducing the necessary techniques. These introductory parts gently evolve to a detailed discussion of the more advanced results concerning a Fourier-mode expansion and a sophisticated heat kernel representation of the Ricci flow, both of which are of independent interest in Ricci flow theory. This work is intended for advanced students in mathematical physics and researchers alike. . 001453911 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed January 23, 2023). 001453911 650_0 $$aGeneral relativity (Physics)$$xMathematics. 001453911 650_0 $$aRicci flow. 001453911 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001453911 7001_ $$aMarzuoli, A.$$q(Annalisa),$$eauthor. 001453911 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z9811985391$$z9789811985393$$w(OCoLC)1349449514 001453911 830_0 $$aMathematical physics studies.$$x2352-3905 001453911 852__ $$bebk 001453911 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-19-8540-9$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001453911 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1453911$$pGLOBAL_SET 001453911 980__ $$aBIB 001453911 980__ $$aEBOOK 001453911 982__ $$aEbook 001453911 983__ $$aOnline 001453911 994__ $$a92$$bISE
