Our main result is the local existence and uniqueness of solutions to the Ricci flow. We prove the long-time convergence or finite-time blow up for the Bakry-Émery Ricci flow on finite trees and circles.Ricci flowSingularitiesLimit spaces & RCDStability & uniquenessLong-time existence & convergenceDiscrete & graph Ricci
