The mean curvature flow along the Kähler-Ricci flow

preprint2011arXivOpen access

Abstract

Let (M,g‾)(M,\overline{g}) be a Kähler surface, and ΣΣ an immersed surface in MM. The Kähler angle of ΣΣ in MM is introduced by Chern-Wolfson \cite{CW}. Let (M,g‾(t))(M,\overline{g}(t)) evolve along the Kähler-Ricci flow, and ΣtΣ_t in (M,g‾(t))(M,\overline{g}(t)) evolve along the mean curvature flow. We show that the Kähler angle α(t)α(t) satisfies the evolution equation: (∂∂t−Δ)cos⁡α=∣∇‾JΣt∣2cos⁡α+Rsin⁡2αcos⁡α, (\frac{\partial}{\partial t}-Δ)\cosα=|\overline\nabla J_{Σ_t}|^2\cosα+R\sin^2α\cosα, where RR is the scalar curvature of (M,g‾(t))(M, \overline{g}(t)). The equation implies that, if the initial surface is symplectic (Lagrangian), then along the flow, ΣtΣ_t is always symplectic (Lagrangian) at each time tt, which we call a symplectic (Lagrangian) Kähler-Ricci mean curvature flow. In this paper, we mainly study the symplectic Kähler-Ricci mean curvature flow.
