Abstract

This paper studies the behaviour of the spectrum of the weighted p-Laplacian on a complete Riemannian manifold evolving by the Ricci-harmonic flow. Precisely, the first eigenvalue diverges in a finite time along this flow. It is further shown that the same divergence result holds on gradient shrinking and steady almost Ricci-harmonic solitons under the condition that the soliton function is nonnegative and superharmonic. We also continue the program in (Abolarinwa, Adebimpe and Bakare in J. Ineq. Appl. 2019:10, 2019) to the case of volume-preserving Ricci-harmonic flow.

Summary

Introduction

In this paper we aim at studying the properties of the spectrum of the weighted p-. Laplacian on a complete Riemannian manifold with evolving geometry. Throughout, we will consider an n-dimensional complete Riemannian manifold (M, g, dμ) equipped with weighted measure dμ = e–φ dv and potential function φ ∈ C∞(M, dμ), whose metric g = g(t) evolves along either the Ricci-harmonic flow or volume-preserving Ricci-harmonic flow. We extend results in [8] to the case of volume-preserving Ricci-harmonic flow. We study maximal time behaviour of the first eigenvalue. It is found that the bottom of the spectrum diverges in a finite time of the flow existence. We observe the same result for the behaviour of the evolving spectrum on a class of self-similar solutions, called gradient almost Ricci-harmonic solitons
