48 results for instantaneously complete

We prove uniqueness of instantaneously complete Ricci flows on surfaces. We do not require any bounds of any form on the curvature or its growth at infinity, nor on the metric or its growth (other than that implied by instantaneous completeness). Coupled with earlier work, particularly [23, 11], this completes the well…

The Ricci flow preserves product structures with instantaneous curvature bounds.

We show uniqueness of Ricci flows starting at a surface of uniformly negative curvature, with the assumption that the flows become complete instantaneously. Together with the more general existence result proved in [10], this settles the issue of well-posedness in this class.

We use a first-order energy quantity to prove a strengthened statement of uniqueness for the Ricci flow. One consequence of this statement is that if a complete solution on a noncompact manifold has uniformly bounded Ricci curvature, then its sectional curvature will remain bounded for a short time if it is bounded ini…
