We prove pinching estimates for dual flows provided the curvature function used in the inverse flow in de Sitter space is convex.

Getzler-Jones-Petrack introduced $A_\infty$ structures on the equivariant complex for manifold $M$ with smooth $\mathbb{S}^1$ action, motivated by geometry of loop spaces. Applying Witten's deformation by Morse functions followed by homological perturbation we obtained a new set of $A_\infty$ structures. We extend and prove Fukaya's conjecture relating this Witten's deformed equivariant de Rham complexes, to a new Morse theoretical $A_\infty$ complexes defined by counting gradient trees with jumping which are closely related to the $\mathbb{S}^1$ equivariant symplectic cohomology proposed by Siedel.

We present a general existence proof for a wide class of non-linear elliptic equations which can be applied to problems with barrier conditions without specifying any assumptions guaranteeing the uniqueness or local uniqueness of particular solutions. As an application we prove the existence of closed hypersurfaces with curvature prescribed in the tangent bundle of an ambient Riemannian manifold $N$ without supposing any sign condition on the sectional curvatures $K_N$. A curvature flow wouldn't work in this situation, neither the method of successive approximation.
