Abstract: Consider a compact manifold M with smooth boundary partialM. Suppose that g and ildeg are two Riemannian metrics on M. We construct a family of metrics on M which agrees with g outside a neighborhood of partialM and agrees with ildeg in a neighborhood of partialM. We prove that the family of metrics preserves various natural curvature conditions under suitable assumptions on the boundary data. Moreover, under suitable assumptions on the boundary data, we can deform a metric to one with totally geodesic boundary while preserving various natural curvature conditions.
