Abstract
Let \((M^n, g(t))\) be a compact Riemannian manifold. In this paper, we derive the evolution formula for the geometric constant \(\lambda _{a}^{b} (g)\) as an infimum of a certain energy function when the following partial differential equation:
with \(\int _M u^2 d\mu = 1\), has positive solutions, where a and b are real constants along the extended Ricci flow and the normalized extended Ricci flow. In addition, we derive some monotonicity formulas by imposing some conditions along both the extended Ricci flow and the normalized extended Ricci flow.
