Monotonicity of eigenvalues of geometric operators along the Ricci–Bourguignon flow

##### Abstract

We study monotonicity of eigenvalues of the Schrödinger-type operator $-\Delta +cR$, where $c$ is a constant, along the Ricci–Bourguignon flow. For $c\ne 0$, we derive monotonicity of the lowest eigenvalue of the Schrödinger-type operator $-\Delta +cR$, which generalizes some results of Cao (2008). As an application, we rule out nontrivial compact steady breathers in the Ricci–Bourguignon flow. For $c=0$, we derive monotonicity of the first eigenvalue of the Laplacian, which generalizes some results of Ma (2006).
