We review some recent results on the mean curvature flows of Lagrangian submanifolds from the perspective of geometric partial differential equations. These include global existence and convergence results, characterizations of first-time singularities, and constructions of self-similar solutions.

A discrete conformality for polyhedral metrics on surfaces is introduced in this paper which generalizes earlier work on the subject. It is shown that each polyhedral metric on a surface is discrete conformal to a constant curvature polyhedral metric which is unique up to scaling. Furthermore, the constant curvature metric can be found using a discrete Yamabe flow with surgery.

In this paper we construct infinitely many families of Einstein metrics on the connected sums of arbitrary number of copies of S2 × S3. We realize these 5-manifolds as total spaces of Seifert bundles over Del Pezzo orbifolds. A K¨ahler–Einstein metric on the Del Pezzo orbifold is then lifted to an Einstein metric using the Kobayashi–Boyer–Galicki method.
