Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the evolution of certain functionals involving higher powers of a scalar quantity $F$ under Bernard List's extended Ricci flow on a compact Riemannian manifold. By deriving explicit expressions for the time derivative of integrals of the form $\int_M F^n \cdot \frac{\partial F}{\partial t} \, d\mu$ for various powers $n$, we explore the intricate interplay between geometric quantities and scalar functions without making any assumptions about the manifold, the scalar field $\Phi$, or the function $u$.
