Abstract

We define two conformal structures on S1 which give rise to a different view of the affine curvature flow and a new curvature flow, the ``Q-curvature flow". The steady state of these flows are studied. More specifically, we prove four sharp inequalities, which state the existences of the corresponding extremal metrics.
