AbstractLet (M, g(t)) be a compact Riemannian manifold and the metric g(t) evolve by the Ricci flow. In the paper, we prove that the eigenvalues of geometric operator −Δφ + $\frac{R}{2}$ are non-decreasing under the Ricci flow for manifold M with some curvature conditions, where Δφ is the Witten Laplacian operator, φ ∈ C2(M), and R is the scalar curvature with respect to the metric g(t). We also derive the evolution of eigenvalues under the normalized Ricci flow. As a consequence, we show that compact steady Ricci breather with these curvature conditions must be trivial.

Normalized Ricci Flow

In this paper, we prove that a simply connected Lagrangian submanifold in the generalized complex space form is diffeomorphic to standard sphere [Formula: see text] and the normalized Ricci flow converges to a constant curvature metric, provided its squared norm of the second fundamental form satisfies some upper bound depending only on the squared norm of the mean curvature vector field, the constant sectional curvature, and the dimension of the Lagrangian immersion of the ambient space. Next, we conclude that stable currents do not exist and homology groups vanish in a compact real submanifold of the general complex space form, provided that the second fundamental form satisfies some extrinsic conditions. We show that our results improve some previous results.

Abstract We estimate from above the rate at which a solution to the normalized Ricci flow on a closed manifold may converge to a limit soliton. Our main result implies that any solution that converges modulo diffeomorphisms to a soliton faster than any fixed exponential rate must itself be self-similar.

Special Case

We investigate the behavior of solutions of the normalized Ricci flow under surgeries of four-manifolds along circles by using Seiberg–Witten invariants. As a by-product, we prove that any pair (α, β) of integers satisfying α + β ≡ 0 (mod 2) can be realized as the Euler characteristic χ and signature τ of infinitely many closed smooth 4-manifolds with negative Perelman's [Formula: see text] invariants and on which there is no nonsingular solution to the normalized Ricci flows for any initial metric. In particular, this includes the existence theorem of non-Einstein 4-manifolds due to Sambusetti [An obstruction to the existence of Einstein metrics on 4-manifolds, Math. Ann.311 (1998) 533–547] as a special case.
