Abstract: Let

o v e r l i n e M

be a compact complex manifold with smooth K"ahler metric

e t a

, and let

D

be a smooth divisor on

o v e r l i n e M

. Let

M = o v e r l i n e M s e t m i n u s D

and let

h a t o m e g a

be a Carlson-Griffiths type metric on

M

. We study complete solutions to K"ahler-Ricci flow on

M

which are comparable to

h a t o m e g a

, starting from a smooth initial metric

where

p h i_{0} i n C^{i n f t y} (M)

. When

o m e g a_{0} g e q c h a t o m e g a

on

M

for some

c > 0

and

p h i_{0}

has zero Lelong number, we construct a smooth solution

o m e g a (t)

to K"ahler-Ricci flow on

M i m e s [0, T_{[o m e g a_{0}]})

where

T_{[o m e g a_{0}]} := s u p T : [e t a] + T (c_{1} (K_{o v e r l i n e M}) + c_{1} (m a t h c a l O_{D})) i n m a t h c a l K_{M}

so that

o m e g a (t) g e q (f r a c 1 n - f r a c 4 h a t K t c) h a t o m e g a

for all

t l e q f r a c c 4 n h a t K

where

h a t K

is a non-negative upper bound on the bisectional curvatures of

h a t o m e g a

(see Theorem 1.2). In particular, we do not assume

o m e g a_{0}

has bounded curvature. If

o m e g a_{0}

has bounded curvature and is asymptotic to

h a t o m e g a

in an appropriate sense, we construct a complete bounded curvature solution on

M i m e s [0, T_{[o m e g a_{0}]})

(see Theorem 1.3). These generalize some of the results of Lott-Zhang in [15]. On the other hand if we only assume

o m e g a_{0} g e q c e t a

on

M

for some

c > 0

and

p h i_{0}

is bounded on

M

, we construct a smooth solution to K"ahler-Ricci on

M i m e s [0, T_{[o m e g a_{0}]})

which is equivalent to

h a t o m e g a

for all positive times. This includes as a special case when

o m e g a_{0}

is smooth on

o v e r l i n e M

in which case the solution becomes instantaneously complete on

M

under K"ahler-Ricci flow (see Theorem 1.1).

Review text

In this technical paper the authors study the Kähler Ricci-flow on non-compact Kähler manifolds and establish existence, uniqueness and regularity results in various situations. More precisely, let \(\overline{M}\) be a compact Kähler manifold with a smooth Kähler metric \(\eta\). Take a smooth divisor \(D\subset\overline{M}\) and put \(M:=\overline{M}\setminus D\). Let \(\omega (t)\) be a \(1\)-parameter family of Kähler metrics on \(M\) subject to the Kähler Ricci-flow initial value problem \[ \begin{cases} \frac{\partial\omega (t)}{\partial t}=-\mathrm{Ric}(\omega (t))\\ \omega (0)=\eta +\mathbf{i}\partial\overline{\partial}\phi_0 \end{cases} \] where \(\phi_0\) is a plurisubharmonic function on \(\overline{M}\) relative to \(\eta\). The authors are interested in, upon making various regularity assumptions on \(\varphi_0\), finding unique smooth solutions which exist for some finite time and in describing complete Kähler metrics \(\omega (t)\) with bounded curvature on \(M\), or more precisely: metrics comparable with a fixed Carlson-Griffiths type metric \(\hat{\omega}\) on \(M\) (see Theorems 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3 in the article). To achieve this they study a Monge-Ampère equation associated to the Kähler Ricci-flow initial value problem.
