Rotationally symmetric Ricci Flow on $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$

Differential Geometry 2025-05-30 v1

Abstract

We establish a short-time existence theory for complete Ricci flows under scaling-invariant curvature bounds, starting from rotationally symmetric metrics on Rn+1\mathbb{R}^{n+1} that are noncollapsed at infinity, without assuming bounded curvature. As a consequence, we construct a complete Ricci flow solution coming out of a rotationally symmetric metric, which has a cone-like singularity at the origin and no minimal hypersphere centered at the origin, using an approximation method.
