Convergence conjecture for the normalized CR Yamabe flow
Convergence conjecture for the normalized CR Yamabe flow
Let be a closed spherical CR -manifold with positive Tanaka-Webster scalar curvature and vanishing torsion. Consider the normalized CR Yamabe flow starting from . Convergence conjecture. As , the solution converges smoothly to a unique limit contact form of positive constant Tanaka-Webster scalar curvature and vanishing pseudohermitian torsion. This would establish asymptotic convergence of the normalized flow in this spherical, torsion-free setting; the surrounding discussion indicates that such convergence is otherwise widely open even on closed pseudohermitian -manifolds.
