An existence time estimate for K\"ahler-Ricci flow

Differential Geometry 2016-03-24 v2

Abstract

Fix a complete noncompact \K manifold (Mn,h0)(M^n,h_0) with bounded curvature. Let g(t)g(t) be a bounded curvature solution to the \KR flow starting from some g0g_0 uniformly equivalent to h0h_0. We estimate the existence time of g(t)g(t) together with C0C^0 bounds and curvature bounds, where the estimates depend only on h0h_0 and the C0C^0 distance between g0g_0 and h0h_0. We also generalize these results to cases when g0g_0 may have unbounded curvature.
