Abstract

The metric on the moduli space of one abelian Higgs vortex on a surface has a natural geometrical evolution as the Bradlow parameter, which determines the vortex size, varies. It is shown by various arguments, and by calculations in special cases, that this geometrical flow has many similarities to Ricci flow.
