Pluriclosed flow and generalized Kahler geometry

Jeff Streets, University of California Irvine
In joint work with G. Tian I introduced a natural evolution equation generalizing the Kahler Ricci flow to complex, non-Kahler manifolds.听 Moreover we showed that this equation preserves "generalized Kahler geometry."听 In this talk I will discuss further results on this flow in the generalized Kahler setting, including a sharp long time existence result for complex surfaces.听 These results lead to strong rigidity and classification results for generalized Kahler structures.听
