New page

'''Richard Hamilton''' is an American mathematician who introduced the [[Ricci Flow|Ricci flow]] in 1982, establishing the field of [[Geometric analysis|geometric analysis]] as a tool for topological classification. His work demonstrated that the heat-equation analogy could be extended to Riemannian metrics, transforming curvature into a dynamical variable. Hamilton's program of Ricci flow with surgery, though incomplete in his hands, provided the framework that [[Grigori Perelman]] later completed to prove the [[Geometrization|geometrization conjecture]].
