P-forms and Ricci Flow with Bounded Curvature on Manifolds

چکیده
In this paper, we study the evolution of L p-forms under Ricci flow with bounded curvature on a complete non-compact or a compact Riemannian manifold. We show that under curvature pinching conditions on such a manifold, the L norm of a smooth p-form is non-increasing along the Ricci flow. The L∞ norm is showed to have monotonicity property too.

Evolution of the first eigenvalue of buckling problem on Riemannian manifold under Ricci flow
Among the eigenvalue problems of the Laplacian, the biharmonic operator eigenvalue problems are interesting projects because these problems root in physics and geometric analysis. The buckling problem is one of the most important problems in physics, and many studies have been done by the researchers about the solution and the estimate of its eigenvalue. In this paper, first, we obtain the evol...
متن کاملRicci Flow and Nonnegativity of Sectional Curvature
In this paper, we extend the general maximum principle in [NT3] to the time dependent Lichnerowicz heat equation on symmetric tensors coupled with the Ricci flow on complete Riemannian manifolds. As an application we exhibit complete Riemannian manifolds with bounded nonnegative sectional curvature of dimension greater than three such that the Ricci flow does not preserve the nonnegativity of t...
متن کاملUniqueness of Solutions of Ricci Flow on Complete Noncompact Manifolds
We prove the uniqueness of solutions of the Ricci flow on complete noncompact manifolds with bounded curvatures using the De Turck approach. As a consequence we obtain a correct proof of the existence of solution of the Ricci harmonic flow on complete noncompact manifolds with bounded curvatures. Recently there is a lot of study on the Ricci flow on manifolds by R. Hamilton [H1–6], S.Y. Hsu [Hs...

In this paper, we prove a general maximum principle for the time dependent Lichnerowicz heat equation on symmetric tensors coupled with the Ricci flow on complete Riemannian manifolds. As an application we construct complete manifolds with bounded nonnegative sectional curvature of dimension greater than or equal to four such that the Ricci flow does not preserve the nonnegativity of the sectio...
متن کاملUnique Continuation Results for Ricci Curvature
Unique continuation results are proved for metrics with prescribed Ricci curvature in the setting of bounded metrics on compact manifolds with boundary, and in the setting of complete conformally compact metrics on such manifolds. In addition, it is shown that the Ricci curvature forms an elliptic system in geodesic-harmonic coordinates naturally associated with the boundary data.
