Steady States for One Dimensional Conformal Metric Flows

Analysis of PDEs 2007-05-23 v2

Abstract

We define two conformal structures on S1S^1 which give rise to a different view of the affine curvature flow and a new curvature flow, the ``QQ-curvature flow". The steady state of these flows are studied. More specifically, we prove four sharp inequalities, which state the existences of the corresponding extremal metrics.
