===Singularities in 3d Ricci flow=== In 3d the possible blow-up limits of Ricci flow singularities are well-understood. From the work of Hamilton, Perelman and Brendle, blowing up at points of maximum curvature leads to one of the following three singularity models: * The shrinking round spherical space form <math> S^3/\Gamma </math> * The shrinking round cylinder <math> S^2 \times \mathbb{R} </math> * The Bryant soliton The first two singularity models arise from Type I singularities, whereas the last one arises from a Type II singularity.
