Secondly, we prove that a compactness theorem in space of the kahler metrics given unifrom Ricci bound and potential bound. As an application, we prove the Calabi flow can be extended once Ricci curvature stays uniformly bounded. Lastly, we prove a removing-sigularity result about a weak constant scalar curveture metric in a punctured ball. One of the main difficulties is that the metric is not assumed to be smooth outside of the singular point.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2007-10-26T17:23:48.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "calabi flow", "weak constant scalar curveture metric", "curvature stays", "constant scalar curvature metric", "short time existence" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
