Riemann flow and Riemann wave via bialternate product Riemannian metric

We illustrate the flow or wave character of the metrics and curvatures of evolving manifolds, introducing the Riemann flow and the Riemann wave via the bialternate product Riemannian metric. This kind of evolutions are new and very natural to understand certain flow or wave phenomena in the nature as well as the geometry of evolving manifolds. It possesses many interesting properties from both mathematical and physical point of views. We reveal the novel features of Riemann flow and Riemann wave, as well as their versatility, by new original results. The main results refer to: (1) Riemann flow PDE, (3) connection between Ricci flow and Riemann flow,(4) the meaning of the Riemann flows on constant curvature manifolds, (5) the gradient Riemann solitons, (6) the infinitesimal deformations (linearizations) of Ricci flow and of Riemann flow PDEs, (7) the existence of Ricci or Riemann curvature blow-up at finite-time singularities of the flow, (8) the Riemann wave PDE and its meaning on constant curvature manifolds, (9) the existence of Ricci or Riemann curvature blow-up at finite-time singularities of the wave, (10) the general form of some essential PDE systems on Riemannian manifolds.
