Abstract
The authors consider the short time existence for Ricci-Bourguignon flow on manifolds with boundary. If the initial metric has constant mean curvature and satisfies some compatibility conditions, they show the short time existence of the Ricci-Bourguignon flow with constant mean curvature on the boundary.
