Entropy and a convergence theorem for Gauss curvature flow in high dimension

Differential Geometry 2013-06-05 v1

Abstract

In this paper we prove uniform regularity estimates for the normalized Gauss curvature flow in higher dimensions. The convergence of solutions in CC^\infty-topology to a smooth strictly convex soliton as tt approaches to infinity is obtained as a consequence of these estimates together with an earlier result of Andrews. The estimates are established via the study of a new entropy functional for the flow.
