Abstract

In this paper, we study the evolution of L2L^2 one forms under Ricci flow with bounded curvature on a non-compact Rimennian manifold. We show on such a manifold that the L2L^2 norm of a smooth one form with compact support is non-increasing along the Ricci flow with bounded curvature. The LL^{\infty} norm is showed to have monotonicity property too. Then we use LL^{\infty} cohomology of one forms with compact support to study the singularity model for the Ricci flow on S1×Rn1S^1\times \mathbb{R}^{n-1}.
