Flows of co-closed $G_{2}$-structures

Differential Geometry 2018-11-27 v1

Abstract

We survey recent progress in the study of G2G_{2}-structure Laplacian coflows, that is, heat flows of co-closed G2G_{2}-structures. We introduce the properties of the original Laplacian coflow of G2G_{2}-structures as well as the modified coflow, reviewing short-time existence and uniqueness results for the modified coflow and well as recent Shi-type estimates that apply to a more general class of G2G_{2}-structure flows.
