Ancient solutions model the singularity formation of the Ricci flow.  In two and three dimensions, we currently have complete classifications for κ-noncollapsed ancient solutions, while the higher dimensional problem remains open. This talk will survey some recent developments of κ-noncollapsed ancient solutions with nonnegative curvature in higher dimensions.


===Yi Lai===
I'll describe some history, recent results, and open problems about harmonic map flow, particularly in the 2-dimensional case.
We found a family of $\mathbb{Z}_2\times O(2)$-symmetric 3d steady gradient Ricci solitons. We show that these solitons are all flying wings. This confirms a conjecture of Hamilton.


===Jiyuan Han===
Let (X,D) be a log variety with an effective holomorphic torus action, and Θ be a closed positive (1,1)-current. For any smooth positive function g defined on the moment polytope of the torus action, we study the Monge-Ampere equations that correspond to generalized and twisted Kahler-Ricci g-solitons. We prove a version of Yau-Tian-Donaldson (YTD) conjecture for these general equations, showing that the existence of solutions is always equivalent to an equivariantly uniform Θ-twisted g-Ding-stability. When Θ is a current associated to a torus invariant linear system, we further show
that equivariant special test configurations suffice for testing the stability. Our results allow arbitrary klt singularities and generalize most of previous results on (uniform) YTD conjecture for (twisted) Kahler-Ricci/Mabuchi solitons or Kahler-Einstein metrics. This is a joint work with Chi Li.


===Ilyas Khan===
In this talk we discuss some uniqueness results for mean curvature flow translators.
