Convergence of the fractional Yamabe flow for a class of initial data

Abstract

This work is a follow-up on the work of the second author with P. Daskalopoulos and J.L. V\'{a}zquez. In this latter work, we introduced the Yamabe flow associated to the so-called fractional curvature and prove some existence result of mild (semi-group) solutions. In the present work, we continue this study by proving that for some class of data one can prove actually convergence of the flow in a more general context. We build on the approach simplified in the book of M. Struwe.
