In this paper, we set up a new Yamabe type flow on a compact Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ of dimension $n\geq 3$. Let $\psi(x)$ be any smooth function on $M$. Let $p=\frac{n+2}{n-2}$ and $c_n=\frac{4(n-1)}{n-2}$. We study the Yamabe-type…

We prove a sharp convergence theorem for the Yang-Mills flow on an $\mathrm{S}\mathrm{U}(r)$-bundle over a locally hyperK\"ahler ALE 4-manifold. Our main result is a noncompact version of the "parabolic gap theorem" previously established…
