Differential Geometry 2022-08-25 v1

Abstract

We introduce a Yamabe-type flow \begin{align*} \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} \frac{\partial g}{\partial t} &=(r^m_{\phi}-R^m_{\phi})g \\ \frac{\partial \phi}{\partial t} &=\frac{m}{2}(R^m_{\phi}-r^m_{\phi}) \end{array} \right. ~~\mbox{ in }M ~~\mbox{ and }~~ H^m_{\phi}=0 ~~\mbox{ on }\partial M \end{align*} on a smooth metric measure space with boundary (M,g,vmdVg,vmdAg,m)(M,g, v^mdV_g,v^mdA_g,m), where RϕmR^m_{\phi} is the associated weighted scalar curvature, rϕmr^m_{\phi} is the average of the weighted scalar curvature, and HϕmH^m_{\phi} is the weighted mean curvature. We prove the long-time existence and convergence of this flow.
