Abstract

In this paper we consider the monotonicity of the lowest constant ${\lambda}_a^b(g)$ under the Ricci-Bourguignon flow and the normalized Ricci-Bourguignon flow such that the equation $$-{\Delta}u+au\;{\log}\;u+bRu={\lambda}_a^b(g)u$$ with ${\int}_{M}u^2dV=1$, has positive solutions, where a and b are two real constants. We also construct various monotonic quantities under the Ricci-Bourguignon flow and the normalized Ricci-Bourguignon flow. Moreover, we prove that a compact steady breather which evolves under the Ricci-Bourguignon flow should be Ricci-flat.
