Global Existence of Geometric Rough Flows
arXiv:1810.03708
Abstract
In this paper we consider rough differential equations on a smooth manifold The main result of this paper gives sufficient conditions on the driving vector-fields so that the rough ODE's have global (in time) solutions. The sufficient conditions involve the existence of a complete Riemannian metric on such that the covariant derivatives of the driving fields and their commutators to a certain order (depending on the roughness of the driving path) are bounded. Many of the results of this paper are generalizations to manifolds of the fundamental results in \cite{Bailleul2015a}.
